We have 16 players again this week and 16 different driver combos made up of:
* 4 different Top Fuel drivers with one Round 1 head-to-head matchup between #3 qualifier Doug Kalitta (5 picks) and #14 qualifier Justin Ashley (4 picks). The next possible head-to-head matchup would be in the final round of eliminations if both drivers survive that far.
* 5 different Funny Car drivers with one Round 1 head-to-head matchup between #6 qualifier Ron Capps (1 pick) and #11 qualifier Matt Hagan (5 picks). There is a possibility of two head-to-head matchups in the semi-finals if all drivers survive Round 1.
* 4 different Pro Stock drivers with the earliest possible head-to-head matchups in the semi-finals if all drivers survive.
* 3 different Pro Stock Motorcycle drivers with thee earliest possible head-to-head matchup in the semi-finals if both drivers survive.

Good luck all!
