Very rare that a road course race takes place on a track I'm unfamiliar with ... at least through video games or something! I've never even heard of Mid-Ohio.

Justin Marks was the fastest in happy hour.



Who the heck is Justin Marks?

Hey Drew, if you're interested, this is a video I put together a year ago on how to use a spreadsheet to do the math.

Drew, if your'e an hour or so late, go to jayski.com, click the Nationwide tab, and they usually have a PDF file on the results of the race. MUCH easier than NASCAR.com

I'm looking good with 8 laps to go...

I agree its weird watching an unknown track, especially a road course. You just don't get a feel for what's going on or where they are making up ground or losing it. I can't even "find" the start/finish line. I wish they had full RaceView on - it would help

I just couldn't wait!!


Brent, you and I are the only two I saw who didn't pick Hornish.

My picks scored 47 points (Chris Buescher), 39 points (Alex Tagliani), and 36 points (Trevor Bayne, 9th place with laps led).

That's 122!

Brent, your picks scored 42 points (REgan Smith) 39 points (Alex Tagliani) and 40 points (Chase Elliott.)

That's 121!

I think I might have won my first race of 2014 but I think Drew will be making it official from here out

Tight one! Boils down to the fact that none of my picks ever lead a lap! Congrats on the win Duane! You deserve this one especially because you've been standing by Buescher all year long.

What an empty looking Victory lane that was. Kinda funny, but I felt bad for Chris since this is obviously supposed to be a big one for him. It kinda looked like nobody thought about the idea of Victory Lane until the end of the race or they over controlled the crowd - there was no one there!
