Darlington, The Wall that eats Cars: May 8, 2010 ALSO NEW POSTING STYLE

Well, Darlington was a weird race this year, while the Darlington Stripe was all over the cars, the wall itself didn't inflict much damage. In fact, nothing inflicted much damage until nearly the end. But fear not, plenty of Crash points to go around.

Congratulations to this weeks winner: Lacey!!!!! aka SmokinAce88.

also please note a change in how I'm posting scores. To make things easier, I have gone to cutting and pasting you emails/post etc of pics. I am then scoring several times a race. I've decided to just post the entire worksheet, which means you can see everyone's scores, as well as who they picked.

Because everyone uses different formats to send me their pics, it may read strangely, but it can be followed fairly easily (heck, I can do it LOL). In everyones section you'll see xx/xx/xx/xx these are the scores for the various scoring passes I make, the very LAST one is the total score.

Post ARE NOT in scoring order, rather just a cut and paste of my worksheet.

I am also adding a quick link tab to a seperate page that will JUST be the rules. So you can easily find the rules without searching backwards.

Doug.

Talledega....Restrictor plate heaven..or is that hell.

Peeps, I think everyone is getting a little tires of restrictor plate races. I know we've been hashing and rehashing what to do about Daytona and Talladega for years, but this clearly isnt it.

They are fun races with exciting finishes, but I have to agree with Dale Jr., they are like playing the lottery lately. Fans get to see the bigone, be in suspense til the last turn before the checkered flag on the last lap, but for drivers trying to get points, starting and Parking is gonna become an option some day.

For Crash league, it's a veritable bonanza of points.

The Winner this week was P337 with 75 points.

CPBelser and Shell236 had 70 points.

SmokinAce88 and AllRacing_Lady had 65 points

BecBeat555 and Alyson13 had 60 points

HonestJohn60 with 55 points

I had 40 points.

So did LarryTaylor

TwentyFour had 35 points

RealBamaGirl had 20 points.
