NASCAR POOL

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the NASCAR Pool, presented by the Pool Series Championship, is the next best thing to being down in the pit!

We'll put you in charge of your own team of 5 Nextel Cup drivers. The better your drivers finish, the more fantasy points your team will accumulate. The teams with the most fantasy points will win the overall championship for our NASCAR series of races.

RACE TEAM

Each race week you will choose a team of 5 Nextel Cup drivers. You will have $1,000,000 in fantasy dollars to divide among your 5 drivers

Drivers' salaries will be based on recent performance and may change after each race. New drivers may be added to the mix each week, so be alert

If your driver does not race then you will receive zero points for that particular driver

The deadline for selecting your drivers for each race is 1 hour before the beginning of the race. Keep in mind that in most weeks, Nextel Cup races are on Sunday

SCHEDULE

Pool Series Championship NASCAR pool takes part in the first 10 NASCAR events of the Nextel Cup season (excluding road races)

SCORING

Your team will earn one point for each Nextel Cup point earned by your drivers. Your total team score for each race is the total of all the Nextel Cup points earned by your drivers for that race. Your total season score is the combined total of all your race scores

Additionally, any driver who leads at least one lap during the race receives 5 bonus points, and the driver who led the most laps during the race receives an additional 5 bonus points

NOTE: If a penalty is levied against one of the drivers you have selected AFTER the completion of a race, NO points shall be deducted from your fantasy score
