Good choice Nightcrawler...I willprobably do the same....you just can't seem to go wrong with those DEI cars at restrictor plate tracks. If we don't get more folks to join us, I may have to do some private recruiting...among my racing buddies...but I would prefer to keep it in the "family" ....so come on you TVCH'ers...come join the fun!

Lance...the group is showing a new member called "the clubhouse gang"....I think that might be your team. If you entered the name of the "group" where you were supposed to enter the name of your "team"...you titled your team "the clubhouse gang" (which is okay)....but ....I think you can go back and change the name of your team if you would rather have it called something different.

I checked and yes you can edit your team name. When you click on your team....right at the top you will see where it says...."Welcome Lancecrossfire" (if that is the name you used)....then on that same line all the way over to the right...you will see where it says..."Edit Team Info Sign Out". Click on Edit Team Info and change your team name...if you want.

I'm glad you're in! I am really looking forward to the start of the season.

Well...I am glad he joined...it will be fun for the two of you to compete. My hubby is Yooper Racing so he is in too. I sure hope Grooch is able to join us! Last night's shootout sure got my blood pumped...I can't wait for the real season to start.

I sure hope they are able to get qualifying in today. Rain...Rain...Go away!

Do we have enough in the group, or do we still need more people? NC--glad to have LC in on it. Has anyone contcted Grace about playing--she was in it last year, along with Wink.

We only have five so far....so we could use more.

I put message in Urgacae's and Wink's folder asking them to join in--they played last year in NC's league he had set up on NASCAR.com.

Ack! I was so busy this weekend, I forgot to pick racers.

I am going to have to do really, really well the rest of the season to make up for this.

Wink

Thanks for the invite Lance. I've signed up and my team name is Zoom.

Not to worry Grooch...it hasn't started yet.

Ok, thanks! I was changing the channel and they had nasca on, and I was thinking the race was starting. Then I thought to check out Nascar.com and I got my facts straight.

so was anyone but me suppristed to see how good
Ken Schrader #49 did in the bud shoot out.
he took gas only in the last pit stop. and stayed up with Jr. allmost till the end. he got 6th and beat a lot of very good drivers. (ie tony #20) last year ken sucked all year.

he could do good in the 500
I put him on my team for sunday

Lancebuddy, I dropped out before the races even got started last year. Nightcrawler found a substitute for me. I will look into the information you gave me for signing up, but part of the reason I dropped out was because my brain couldn't figure out how to get on the right team! Ack! I'll let you know

If I can do it right this time my picks will have to depend on dh's guesses, because he's watched every race and I haven't

Urgrace...one of the things I like about the Yahoo game is that it is low maintainance. You can use a driver 9 times...so at minimum...you only have to change 3 times after you pick your initial team. Your guesses are as good as everyone else's because who knows how these things are gonna play out.

Some people will change drivers every week...some won't change until they absolutely have to...and we can all have fun! The level of inivolvement is up to you!

Can you tell I am getting excited for the season to start!

Nightcrawler....SHOCKED beyeond belief pretty much sums up how I felt about Schrader's performance in the #49. My jaw was hanging open, I am sure...but I was happy for him.

Could some of these teams be sandbagging? (Bill Elliott, Dale Jarrett, and Tony for example). I cannot wait for qualifying today...I was really bummed when it got rained out yesterday.

Qualifying is on NOW on FX for anybody that's interested.

I'm watching...so far Michael Waltrip is on the pole. Ricky Rudd is second in the Woods' brothers Ford. Bobby Labonte is third in his new Chevrolet...and Sterling Marlin is driving the fastest Dodge in fourth.

Bad news for Tony Stewart Fans...the engine "laid down" during his qualifying lap so he will have to race his way in...or use a provisional.

Jeff Green is on the pole for the Daytona 500. He has got to be thrilled. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is on the outside. I am looking forward to Thursday when the twin 125's will decide the field.

Okay, I'm in. Even though I'm not sure I get it, lol.

Fantasy cap had its problems last year, but I liked that I could keep my favorite drivers...gave me something to root for as dh watched the race every week. Those greedy b*****ds at NASCAR!!! I joined the free 'streak' one anyway.

Oh well, I guess that now I'll have to start getting into some of the 'B' and 'C' drivers.
