Can some one please explain to me how they score the points in fantasy live because i dont get how ron hornday and brendean dong both finish ahead of dale junior and they didnt make the race

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Dude I have no idea either

 

[aceboy127]

I am not to sure, but I did win again.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Yeah you did. Im terrible.

 

[aceboy127]

Tell you the truth I didn't even pick this week.

 

[aceboy127]

Points for fantasy are fairly simple. We receive what the drivers do in the points standings.
For example:
1st place gets 46 points.
2nd place gets 42 points.
3rd place gets 41 points.
down to 1 point for 43rd place.
On top of those points we also receive points if our driver leads a lap and/or has a fastest lap
0.5 points for every lap lead.
0.5 points for every fastest lap.
We also receive points for the place differential of our drivers.
Driver starts 1st and finishes 3rd is -2 points.
Then we have the bonus points. 10 points for picking the winning manufacturer. 30 points for picking the winning driver (bonus pick).
Finally, if you pick a driver on the list that does not qualify for the race, then you will receive 0 points for that driver, as is the case with Gaughan and Hornaday. Then, you have Junior and Johnson whose finishing position was much worse than their starting position, which is why they received negative points.
Hopefully this clears things up a little.

With all the exciting breaking news around the league I thought maybe we could have a community news ID for posting to GTPlanet. A news agency resource that any A.R.S. racers could leak rumors with the anonymity of a reputable news outlet specializing in All that is of a new, speculative, factual, or historic context. Any thoughts or ideas, possible name suggestions for an entity?

 

[aceboy127]

Angry your choice of words always intrigues me. Yes, though I do think that is a good idea. It will help keeps everyone's nerves up and keep the racing exciting.

Anyone going to get nascar 15 for 20 roses on may 22 at gamestop

 

[Sassafrass_3]

$20 will be impossible to pass up. Although I just read this will basically be an update to '14 rather than a new game. The reviews for the old ones have been terrible but maybe the new developer will work some magic. I found this interview with the new developer http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2015/02/02/dmi-games-vision-for-nascar.aspx and this video for anyone interested http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nascar-15-is-exclusive-at-retail-to-gamestop/1100-6426552/

 

[aceboy127]

$20 for a new game. Might just consider getting it. It does appear they are improving the online portion of the game, so that is good news.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Still scary though, lol. My expectations get so high only to be let down.

 

[aceboy127]

Hey for $20 you cannot be expecting too much, but a new game for $20 is unheard of today.

 

[cbcvabch]

I dont think i could of had a much worse week in fantasy racing it was over before the first red flag

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Me too dude. Brad, joey, then Harvick. Ugh.

 

[Bowtie52]

I finally won a fantasy race

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Anyone that went all Hendrick probably did ok. I don't know how anyone survived that race.

 

[cbcvabch]

Harvick still finished second in the fantasy race all the laps he led i guess

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Did he? Man I haven't even look at the fantasy results yet.

 

[rap129]

Always a good choice to go with Harvick

 

[rap129]

Sorry for a double post but it's so sad to see Steve Byrnes passed today, was my favorite brodcaster and even got the chance to meet him a few years ago. Honestly then I had no idea who he was, but I remember thinking how friendly he was to me and if he wss a driver I would start to like him. If the rain that's supposed to be in Richmond Saturday didn't already destroy some excitment, this surely hurt the rest of it.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Guess what I got to work on today....

 

[Sassafrass_3]

 

[aceboy127]

Wow man that is sweet. I'm am surprised you did not take a selfie with that car.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Lol, nobody in my shop knew what it was. They thought it was a fancy 370Z. So dumb. Me and Acog were the only ones that knew Godzilla was in the building.

 

[AngryEater]

Ah, gee golly that sure is one fancy Datsun.

 

[Bowtie52]

Godzilla!!!!!!!
