Chicagoland Results - Nobody locks into Round 2 - One team is off to a Rough Start!!!!


And we're off!!!  Race 1 of 3 of the Flirter Round was yet another eventful one for our little League.  Hamlin won in Chicago, but nobody picked him.  That doesn't mean nothing happened (Double Negative), but it does mean that no one is locked into Round 2 at the moment.  The grid above highlights who would move on if the Flirter Round ended today.  NOTE: No team outside the top 8 of the regular season (those who didn't earn any Bonus Points) would have moved on... but we have 2 more races.   

Let's go through the field:

In The GREEN:
  • Staying in 1st is Kiss who took Johnson (11th). +25
  • Staying in 2nd is Skidmarks who took Keselowski (8th). +24
  • Moving up a spot to 3rd is Rusty who took Kyle Busch (9th). +17
  • Also in 3rd is Empty who moves up 2 spots to 3rd with his Top Pick of Logano (6th) +17
  • Ideal moves up a spot to 5th with his Truex Jr pick (13th). +6
  • Asleep also chose Johnson (11th) which jumps him up 2 spots to 6th. +5
  • Dust holds on to the final top 7 spot with his Gordon pick (14th). +4

 Outside Looking In:

  • Beef jumps up a spot to 8th.  He also had the top pick of Logano but even that wasn't enough to overcome having to start the Chase with 0 Bonus Points.  -4
  • Graziano stays in 9th and also took Keselowski.  -7
  • Pursuit stays in 9th and also took Keselowski.  -7
  • Penguin also took Truex Jr. but falls to 11th.  -11
  • Piston drops 9 spots with his BSOTW Harvick pick (42nd).  -16

Other Ramblings:

New Hampshire this week on Sunday.  2 races to go until the Teaser Round!!!

Every team in the Chase is just 1 win away from locking in*.  1 race could flip this field as we are still only 37 points difference from 1st to worst.  

*unless 6+ other teams get wins, then we go to tie breakers...

Nobody is out, so get or keep your shit together!!!  2 races to go!!!  Can you do it??? 

Good luck to all!!!

Cheers Mfers!!!
