Here we go...2021 12th annual NASCAR "Pick 'Em" Game

Congratulations to 'cuda20' (FABO), 'Dart_Doctor' (FABO) and 'Yunick13' (FABO) for correctly picking the race winner, #5 Kyle Larson and grab -5 bonus points each!
Nobody picked the race runner-up, #24 William Byron, so no award of the -3 bonus runner-up bonus points for the second consecutive week.
'cuda20' and 'Dart_Doctor both had the low net score for this race with -3.0 points.

#18 Kyle Busch was the race leader at the end of Stage 1; #12 Ryan Blaney was in second place.
#5 Kyle Larson was the race leader at the end of Stage 2; #24 William Byron was in second place.

Please let me know if I show either your Pole or Race picks incorrectly or if you have any questions.
Pole picks will only be shown on the point standings immediately after each of the 8 races that will have qualifying in the 2021 season.

Please post your picks for the next race and let me know if you want to "lock" them in for future weeks. I will put an "L" before either your Pole pick or your race picks to show they've been "locked".
As always, you can always make different picks each week. Your "locked" picks will always be there should you forget to post your race picks, your computer malfunctions or the site should go down temporarily.

The next race on the 2021 NASCAR schedule is the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, MO, on Sunday, October 24, with the green flag scheduled for approximately 3:15pm EDT (12:15AM PDT). There will not be any Cup Series practice or qualifying for this race.

Post your Race Picks before the green flag flies.
