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 final race of the 2021 NASCAR schedule is the NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway in Avondale, AZ, VA, on Sunday, November 7, with the green flag scheduled for approximately 3:15pm EST (12:15PM PST).

CORRECTION: Qualifying for this event is scheduled for 7:00pm EDT (4:00pm PDT) on Saturday, November 6.
Please note Saturday times are Daylight Savings Time, Sunday times are Standard Time.

Post your Race Picks before the green flag flies.
