So, could you confirm my picks so I can have a look at my result in advance before tables come out?

Dang, I'm seeing some high scores. And here I felt good with my 1st, 3rd, and 8th...
Anyway, I think I've picked the race winner something like 5 races in a row. This is crazy.

Your 1-3-5 finish did outscore Niop and my 1-2-5 finish, since Harvick (2nd place - 42 points) led no laps and Logano (3rd place - 41 points) led the most laps (+2 points).

@MustangRyan, I could be wrong, but didn't you discard Cup drivers in earlier Busch/Trucks special events, instead giving 5 points to the highest placing series regular and so forth?

Nationwide going with pedigree - Chase Elliot and Jeffry Earnhardt
Sprint Cup - Harvick, Logano and Kurt Busch fingers crossed I can get back in the Chase as I am one spot short after the last 2 weeks of bad luck on pics

If you are wanting to catch up, you should probably lean toward the favorites. If they have a bad day, chances are good that other players will score low as well, and you won't lose much/any ground to the people ahead of you. If the favorites have a good day, and you picked gambles, you're going to lose ground.
To me, the typical Bristol favorites are: 2/11/18/20/22/24/48/99
If you want to go with a non-favorite that might still finish well, then maybe try someone from the 4/5/16/41/42/55/88 group.
If you're wanting a longshot wild gamble, try any of these guys: 1/9/15/17/27/43
