All entries are in, so if you need to change your pick, let me know before the green flag. Ryu and 82harley have the same picks, and so Ryu will have the priority, unless one of you wants to change.

[dara]

[dara]

Brad Keselowski wins stage 1.

[4me2c]

Looks like #2 is gonna get #2 also...! Gotta leave Harvick Alone from Now On..Might have Jinxed Him...!

[dara]

Brad K wins stage 2. Again, no bonus points awarded.

[4me2c]

Harvick just moved up from 19th to 18th...! :rolleyes:

[dara]

Martin Truex Jr wins stage 3, and stilled, ranagee and minitor get 10 bonus points.

[crazed 9.6]

[crazed 9.6]

A diecast race too.
:)

Congrads ranagee !

[Ryu]

congrats ranagee. enjoy your new car:). im happy for you.:)

[dara]

My previous scoring does not match with the points posted by NASCAR.com... they didn't award points for the third stage (or I assumed that they would.)

Here are the final results. Even if Nascar didn't award points for the final stage, the guys who guessed it will still get 10 points for that stage.

Congrats to ranagee with the high score of 193.

Our first diecast winner of 2019 was bigstar
http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?40369-NASCAR-2019-Race-5-Fontana-Auto-Cub-400-Race-and-Contest-Thread-DIECAST-RACE/page2
It was awhile before bigstar submitted his choose. And then our supplier did not have that car, but he was heading to a show the following weekend and did find that diecast car. So he has it and will be delivered (finally) this upcoming week :)
Its a Kyle Busch Rookie car and we will post pics once it has been delivered to bigstar :)

Then we also have the 2018 post diecast contest , which Orziz and erickson won and need to submit their choices
