I’d hate to see this die for the lack of interest because I know that’s not the case… I’ll run my third Trifecta of the season this weekend, but I’d like to see it done on a rotational basis into the future if everyone is willing…
So here are the three races being run tomorrow and Sunday!
ALL
The Craftsman Truck Cool City Customs 200 at Michigan International Speedway!
The Track:
Distance / Track Type 2 Mile Oval 18-degree bank
The Best Reconds
Craftsman Truck Top Race Speed 154.044 by Brendan Gaughan on 7/26/2003
Craftsman Truck Top Qualifying Speed 181.612 by Kyle Busch on 6/18/2005
We're going to change the rules set up by William by popular demand (or whining if you want to call it that! lol).
Let's do away with the 5 point penalty for choosing someone else's driver at a later time. Let's just see who can pick the winners and in case of a tie, everyone give me who they think will come in second in the Sprint Cup race. Your second place drivers' actual finishing positions will be tallyed and that will yield the ultimate winner if need be. So I'll need one pick for both the Truck and Nationwide races and your first and second place drivers in the LifeLock 400 on Sunday...
Who wants to step up next week? HotfootLori, William and I are (as 3fan says) out...
This weekend marks a time when we need to bow our heads and say a prayer of thanks to all those who have served in our country's armed forces. They have made our way of life what it is and it's time to remember them for it, if only for a little while. My family has had members wearing the uniform in every major conflict our country has suffered through since the Civil War and I'm sure most of you can say the same. It is one of the greatest, most unselfish things a person can do. We shall never forget...

This weekend is also the biggest one in auto racing as the Monaco Grand Prix will be run early Sunday at 8:00 AM EDT. The Indianapolis 500 will take the green flag at 1:10 PM EDT. At the end of a long day of racing the Coca Cola 600 will start about 5:45 PM EDT Sunday evening… If you want to play I'll need which drivers you think will win each race. If you select a driver that's already taken there will be a five point penalty so pay attention to who has been taken!

Monaco Grand Prix!
Indianapolis Motor Speedway!
Coca Cola 600 - Night racing at Lowes!
So there are your three races. We’ll follow the same rules we’re all familiar with. I’ll need your picks in before 8:00 AM EDT Sunday…
Good luck!

Note: I didn’t see William’s usual Trifecta last week so I went ahead on short notice last Friday afternoon and put one together. There wasn’t enough time to get a big field of competitors together, but I think we all had a good time… SpeedBeagle won going away with Big Brown setting the pace.
I'm a sports fanatic living on the west coast of Florida. I'm a rare bird that moved here from the left coast a couple of years ago. I advocate an even playing field in all of life's endeavors.
