I've got my Daytona lineup...
But I'm a little confused about the "bench" concept? Is that a "thinking about it and here's a place to store in case I change my mind?)
(Or is it ... wow those trials weren't too good, better put the faster driver up on top....

)

I'm in again.
I'm the Rockets
I invited a couple of my LOST friends to join...not sure if they will, but it would only add to the game.

Both. You get qualifying points for anyone in your lineup.
After qualifying you can move your drivers around among the choices you have selected. i.e., you can change your starters based on qualifying if you are so inclined.
You cannot go back and select drivers that are not in your queue.
Some have been known to put a driver in their queue because they qualify well and may earn qualifying points, but don't start them because they don't expect them to finish well.
Oh, and you can only use a driver 9 times during the ENTIRE season...so there's some strategy involved about when to start some drivers.

How 'bout that #5 on the outside pole! I hope if Mark is in the lead this year and the 29 comes along side him, he puts him in the wall!
I know thats not his style......especially both being Chevy drivers.

I'd rather see the #2 in the wall...but that's just me.

And there's the big one. The announcers just couldn't bring themselves to blame 88, just couldn't say it

Pretty obvious but not politically correct to blame the fan favorite.

Then I'll do it...
88 caused the wreck. Which was unnecessary when he was a lap down and he took out half of the top 10.
My respect for the 88 is dwindling.
