NASCAR Truck Series S6

[pyrox69]

So just out of curiosity, if people don't show up for the bud shootout, do the slots get filled or are they just empty?

 

[Furinkazen]

Yes they remain empty.

Akmuq has proposed the idea of qualifying for everyone during the week, thoughts? Going to put it up as a poll. Test room up by the way.

If its midweek qualifying I will have to step down as everyone knows I cannot come on midweek.

Edit uggghhh major poll typo

Before voting on the poll, should I read those outside of top 12 whre it says only those on top 12?

Yes, I have sent an application for the poll to be tweaked.

 

[FlyingFox]

Question is, who is inside the top 12?

 

[smuffyatfcp]

Cant race tomorrow. Going out and wont be back until Saturday.

 

[Furinkazen]

Spurgy
RedPartyHat
Carbonox
Furinkazen
Jammy
ChrisJohnson
Neljack
Akmuq
FlyingFox
Lout
Yeratel
Smuffy


Also with this system, a top 12 driver who does not set a time that is one of the 16 quickest (say 18th fastest time) would still make it in the race, albeit at the back. An interesting system with many different possibilities.

I aim to stay in the top 12 all season.

 

[Furinkazen]

And those top 12 drivers stay in for Motegi R2, after R2 the current standings will be used.

 

[Akmuq]

Any teams free for a Trucks and Sprint Cup champion?

Failing that, any good independant drivers?

 

[Furinkazen]

It's an intriguing mix this season - a champion without a team, driver changes aplenty, returning faces, new teams... certainly going to be eventful.

Litchi doesn't qualify in any way..?

@ Drop What?!!!

 

[Carbonox]

I thought it was made clear that this is only for previous winners, pole sitters, NW champs and all-star race winners.

Penguin got something right, about time

@ Drop What?!!!

Drop was betting on whether you'll post over or under 7.5 times before the complete starting lineup was finalized.

Needless to say what the outcome was.

I knew I should have set the line a lot higher.

Oh, I was thinking it was just a preseason race, I haven't really been paying too much attention

 

[Furinkazen]

Spurgy's concentration lapses begun already

If it helps any of the US guys, the race may be pushed back by 10 minutes or so, it's only short so it's nothing too bad.

Not sleeping is my guess

[Furinkazen]
