I almost forgot mine as well.  You'll still have a lineup just no bonus picks.

I think he's rolled his over 2 weeks in a row now. Prolly had some drivers in that he otherwise would've saved for later in the season. 

That could come back to haunt you Fireballer.

@Strike seems to forget to submit his lineup for about a month straight now. 

And @SUXBNME get in here and start playing, yeah you can't win the season, but you could get some weekend bragging rights.

Tried to do a save my best guys weekend---got 172 points, not bad but I completely blew the bonus stuff this weekend.

I simmed the race last night and the clear favorite today should be....Me.  I lead the most laps, had the fastest lap and won by 3 seconds.

Do you have a Nascar video game?  I was looking at that golf game the other night and saw there is a game called Heat.  It was cheap though so I wonder how good it would be.  I think it's EA.

Yeah, I was racing Nascar Heat 5...I like it.  But I also have a Logitech 920 setup.  I don't think it would be as fun with just a normal control pad.

Linky no worky. 

I've been looking at iRacing rigs. Looks like you can go with just a wheel and a couple of pedals for a couple hundo or drop 10 large on a pretty kick ass setup. 

There's no way I'm doing the latter but I'm seriously considering a Thrustmaster (  )  T150

Fixed link

Logitech 920, that Thrustmaster looks sweet too.

I've seen a few of those 10K setups, would be fun,  but I'm not that into racing, plus just race better...

Nice!

 

ETA: do you just put the wheel on a desk/table or something? I currently sit in a recliner when I game. That ain't gonna work for this. I might have to pick up one of  these

How do you have it set up?   We should all get one and start a Geek Heat League,  

Fandandy, what are you dong in there?!?

Leave me alone, momma, I'm in Heat!!!

I use the GT Lite foldable.  The one you are looking at looks more comfortable, but I like that I can fold my all down and throw it in the corner out to the way.

I think I'm the odd man out since I use an Xbox system and it seems to me most geeks run  Play Stations.

If I ever get one of the next-gen consoles I am getting the Xbox.  Not sure I ever will though.

I would've finished 1,2,3,4,5 if I'd left Logano in instead of garaging him in favor of Kes early in stage 2. 

First win of the season. 

[fandandy 3,311]

Congrats.  You made up some serious points today, on me at least.  

I'm sad when I can't make the banana dance.

COTA in the rain?

Shiiiiiiit, in these conditions, on a new track, you could still make the banana dance.

I have 85 points to your 185 right now.  Fock.

 You've lost MTJ and Harvick. The rest of your roster could easily finish in the top 10. This sh!t is nuts. COTA in the rain is almost like a super speedway. Anything can happen.

[Fireballer 2,377]

Harvick likes the rain

Last week 202

This week 207

And I've lost ground to the leaders.

2nd to 6th in the standings.    I don't think anyone below me is even playing.
