  • 2010 Nascar "Survivor" Pool

    “NASCAR SURVIVOR”


    This is Year 8 of the Nascar Survivor Pool. The last 7 have come down to the final race and the '10 Season is less than 6 weeks away. kbsooner21 is THE Defending Champ here!

    Price: $25 to play http://www.bettorschat.com/forums/po...t-options.html


    League Rules- Pick one driver every week without using any driver twice during the season. Only Nascar point races count. You will receive the driver points awarded each week for the driver you choose. The points will be applied from NASCAR.COM

    If you use a driver twice or forget to turn in a pick, you will be given zero points for that race. To be eligible for the last place prize, you MUST get positive points in every race. A Double pick or No pick, eliminates you from that prize.

    You will have to use almost every driver (36 in all), so use them wisely! There will be a standings sheet emailed out every week of a point’s race on Monday or Tuesday night. The sheet with everyone’s Driver will be emailed out before the start of each race so you can see who the people above and below you have. We list the driver and points on the sheet so You can keep track of your own drivers.

    The Person at the end of the season with the most points will be the winner!


    Rules Change - Again this season,you will be allowed to use any One Driver twice. This way, your 1st Double Pick will not count against you. Now if you pick a scrub for the 2nd time by mistake, it will still count as your 1 driver used twice. It will be your mistake but it still beats a zero. Most will use someone who is in the Top 5 in points twice but the choice is up to you. People who have used their one driver twice will receive a * next to their name to let everyone know. If we forget to put the * and you use a driver for the 2nd time, twice, it still falls on you for not keeping track.


    Deadline - The Daytona 500 is Sunday February 14th. With that race and every one there after, the deadline to turn in picks is 12 PM est. of race day. Be careful as there are also Saturday races. There will be absolutely no picks accepted after the green flag has dropped for any race.


    Turning in Picks - It doesn't matter if it is a 1 pm race or a 8 pm race guys, the deadline is 12 pm est. on race day. That is Eastern Standard time so adjust your time zone accordingly. I will be keeping a notebook for this guys and you will get 2 warnings if you are late. If it happens a 3rd time, you will get a NO PICK and ZERO points for that week. I don't care if it is 12:05 and you send your pick. The deadline is 12:00 and we are sticking to it. It is your fault if your pick is late, not mine. I also will be accepting NO excuses for why your pick did not get to me. I've heard things like i lost power, i had to go to the hospital, i had car problems, i sent it yesterday and you didn't receive it and i sent it to the wrong email address. I'm sorry for all your misfortunes BUT the rules are the rules and if you send it well in advance, you can avoid any issues. You should also send it to both of my email address'. If you send it to both, i guarantee i'll get it. I have the Yahoo email listed and you can also send it to the Roadrunner email addy that the standings are sent out from.


    Signing up - Play as many as you like. To sign up, reply here and send me a email for payment details. Your first pick and money must be turned in before the Daytona 500 on February 14th. Prize money will be set when we have the total number of players figured and all have paid.

    Please do not wait until the last minute to enter if you are interested. It will be much easier for me to get it set up with a little time to spare before Daytona as it is only about 7 weeks away and counting before they drop the Green Flag!!!


    Reply here and email me for payment info ***********************



    Good Luck & Enjoy!

            Wayne, can we take a vote on payouts as well... I feel you should front load more to the winner. KB deserved a lot more money. It's very hard to do what he did. It's almost better off coming in 2nd or 3rd because the prize money is not to far off from the winners. I'm just saying, maybe this year bring it to a vote to see what the people have to say.

              WOW kb won i stopped looking with about 4 races left after back to back DNF's by edwards and stewart. Anyhow as far as payouts go. I agree with doc with 1st place. Although i do like the multiple payouts. I'm not sure what the payouts were but top 5 is great IMO. then again i dont care what the payouts ultimately are as I'm in it to win and above anything else i want to finish ahead of KB!!!!!!

              Count me in for 2 spots this year. This is my favorite contest bar-none!!!!!

                  oh i know bro. I have no problem admitting how i use to hate on nascar. Now its one of my favorite sports. Went to my first race last year at new hampshire and loved it. The contest makes nascar way more fun.

                    No offense Doc but this pool is not up to the people or a vote. This isn't a "BettorsChat" Pool, it is a pool i started before i was even a member of this site. I ran it with about 40 locals and now we have more because of me offering it up here too. The payouts for this pool as with all of them will stay the same. I always try to keep each payout spot the same amount $ wise between each position. Some agree and some may not. You are right, winning is very hard. You also get your name on the sheet each year as a Champion and you can also do as kb did and put it in your signature. Those are the perks that go along with getting more money than anybody else. My wife won one year too and she was more excited about winning the thing than she was about the actual money. I have placed in the money a couple of times and simply put, just getting "In the money" is hard. Finishing 2nd is pretty good too and i do not want to lighten their winnings either or the 3rd and 4th place guys just to front load one person. Getting in the money anywhere is very hard to do and i want all rewarded for it. That will never change buddy. Sorry.

                          I agree Wayne.When your dealing with 50 and 60 people it's hard to figure out what is most deserving.This past year was my first time and I finished in the money in 21 and survivor.Like your wife Wayne,that was just as important as the money to me to finish in both.The nascar 21 is going to be awsome this year with a E class added.


                          3 weeks from tonight is the shootout

                            Adding that E Group will not doubt make it tougher when you can only make 1 change. Your team can get out of whack quickly on certain tracks and i'm hoping the guys up top do not all have the same team at the end of the year.
