2025 15th Annual FABO NHRA "Pick 'Em" Game - I Can't Wait!!!
This was way beyond a 'blind squirrel' moment, so 'ocdart' (FABO) must have found that elusive crystal ball - and some new batteries to make it work - since he ended up picking the winners of Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle on the way to a total of 204.0 points. Included in that total were ET bonus points for both Funny Car and Pro Stock Motorcycle and Speed bonus points for Funny Car.
'Back in Time' (FABO) grabbed the runner-up spot with 184.5 points.
The top FBBO score was 'GTXDAN' with 169.5 points.
