2016 Rules

General Rules

 

Pick 5 drivers; your top 3 finishers will count for points.

 

You must make your picks before the green flag. In case of any dispute if no green flag time is listed, I will work off of the chequered flag time and subtract the total race time, and this will be compared to the timestamp on the post. 

 

You can’t pick the same drivers 2 races in a row. If you do, they are scored 0 for the 2nd race AND cannot be picked the following week. You may pick fewer than 5 without penalty.

 

You’re picking drivers, not teams. If a team makes a driver change between races then you can pick the new driver for that team the following week. You cannot pick the previous driver in a new team though. Example: You pick driver A who is driving for team X. During mid week driver B replaces driver A, who then moves to team Y. You can pick driver B/team X in the following race, not driver A/team Y.

 

Points scored will be based on the NASCAR point system (2016 version, 40 for win + bonus). Drivers who don’t score points in the Cup Series will still count and be credited with the points they would’ve gotten. Any points penalties won’t be reflected in the results.

 

There will be tiebreakers for race results, based on the following:

 

1. Best 4th pick

 

2. Best 5th  pick

 

3. Order of picks

 

The point standings will keep track of your number of starts, wins, top 5’s, top 10’s, average points per race, average finish position per race and the best single race finish for the season to that point.

 

If you miss a race, then you’re free to pick whoever you want for the next race you pick in.

 

There will be bonus points based on whether any or all of your picks sweep the top positions in the race:

 

1-2 finish – 20 points

 

1-2-3 finish – 30 points

 

Perfect 1-2-3 finish (1 driver leads most laps, all lead at least one lap) – 35

 

1-2-3-4 finish – 50 points

 

1-2-3-4-5 finish – 70 points

 

The Chase

 

There will be a 10 race playoff to determine the championship.

 

Eligibility:

 

• The top 10 in the standings after 26 races
• The person with the most wins who isn’t among the top 10 in points (minimum 15 starts)
• The person with the highest average points scored per race who isn’t among the top 10 in points (minimum 15 starts)
• The person with the best average finish who isn’t among the top 10 in points (minimum 15 starts)

 

The tiebreaker for positions in the standings are wins, top 5, top 10, average points, average finish and best individual race finish.

 

The tiebreaker for the best averages and for most wins is highest position in the standings.

 

The Chase people who qualify by being top 10 in points are eligible for bonus points (UPDATED FOR 2016) based on regular season wins (5 points per win) and their seeding:

1. 25
2. 18
3. 15
4. 12
5. 10
6. 8
7. 6
8. 4
9. 2
10. 1

Those who qualify based on the best average and the most wins are considered wild cards and aren’t eligible for any bonus points so they’ll start at 0.

 

The wild card precedence order (UPDATED FOR 2016) is:

 

1. Most wins

 

2. Best average points

 

3. Best average finish

 

This means if the person with most wins also has the best average points, the person who is 2nd in average points will receive that wildcard. If one of them is top of best average finish, that will go to 2nd place. If 2nd place in average finish is also the other person already holding a wildcard, it will go to 3rd.

 

NEW FOR 2016:

 

The chase will feature a participation clause. If any user that has qualified misses 2 races during the chase, they will be removed. The person next on the order of qualification (determined by average points per race) who has still been active (max 1 race during chase missed) will replace them, and will be retroactively awarded the points they would have earned in the chase. I will keep a tally of who has missed any races in the standings.

 

Exhibition Races

 

Exhibition races won’t count towards the overall standings.

 

The rule for not picking the same drivers 2 races in a row doesn’t apply, so you can pick whoever you want.

 

The rest of the rules and points scored for the Unlimited will be the same as any race. Points scored in each of the Duels will be cut in half, but the rest of the rules remain the same; you can pick 5 drivers for EACH race. The points from each race will be combined to determine an overall winner.

 

Points scored for the Showdown will be cut in half, while they’ll remain the same for the All Star Race. The rest of the rules remain the same, and the points from each race will be combined to determine an overall winner. Picks must be made before the respective race, but you can make blind picks for the Showdown winner (ex. SD#1), Showdown runner-up (SD#2) and the fan vote winner (ex. FVW) for the All Star race if you choose.
