Opening Statement

Welcome to NASCAR GOLF. It is called that because the scoring is similar to that of golf. The lower the score (points received) the better. Higher, not so good. The goal is to have the lowest total points at season end. NASCAR has 37 races for CHASE points from February through November. This league basically runs itself. With spring coming as well as fishing season, I don’t want to be tied down all weekend for 37 weeks, and I will not be available every weekend. I just need to go in once a week to update scores. The cost per player is $30 for the season. Let me know your thought, questions or concerns Text 317-407-5609.

Season Format

• Players will accumulate combined points based on the finishing position of their 2 drivers (lower to higher).
• Points will be accumulated throughout the season, 37 races.
• The player with the lowest score will determine 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for the payout. 
• Payout-1st Place $150, 2nd Place $90, 3rd Place $30
• If a driver is unable to race, the points for the replacement driver will be used. If the initial driver is not substituted, the points for the last pole sitter will be used.
• If a driver is unable to race subsequent races, the option to select an undrafted driver is available.
• All players have the option to trade a driver (1 time) after race 10.

Playoff Format

This will be the Inaugural year for a playoff format so bear with me. I have tossed around a few ideas of a format that is consistent with the regular season, fair, and makes sense regarding playoff formats in traditional sport history with eliminations. Of course, NASCAR playoffs are different than other sports. However, in this league points are accumulated in different manner than NASCAR, and so will the playoffs. 

• Playoffs will consist of the last 10 races of the season, 28-37.
• Points will be accumulated the same as the regular season through all 10 races.
• After the first race at Darlington, the player with the highest total points will be out.
• The player will be the highest total points will be dropped after each subsequent race. 
• This will leave 2 players left for the final race of the year to battle it out.
• Tiebreakers - 1. Total weekly wins (in yellow) during the regular season, 2. Lowest total points during the regular season. Ironically, I am the only one that has not won a week.
