Richmond
Jr. Nation's 347 was the top RMFN score at Richmond, one of 12 scores above 300. Average RMFN score was 286, down about 10 points from last week. RMFN's string of limited sub-200 scores continued with just three at Richmond. To illustrate the turnaround:
First three races - 5 300+ scores, 41 sub-200 scores
Six races since - 96 300 + scores, 11 sub-200 scores
DEPARTURES NOTE: I adjusted the prior scores for Yduck and Buford's Boyz to 0s, which changed results in the World Cup, Head to Head and Single Elim Heat competitions. Two teams that were formerly eliminated are now still alive in the SEH. The WC and HtH are still in the middle of their rounds and were affected.
OVERALL
I added some color bars to help differentiate some groups based on average finishes. The top group has the best shot at the overall title. The number of members in those groups will decrease as we eliminate more teams from competitions.
CHASE
The string of 300 scores by RMO Lug Nutz and napolean has put pressure on the rest of the RMFN field to keep pace. Just 9 races into the season and only 23 teams are currently eligible for the Chase.
WORLD CUP
As noted above, the score changes did shift some things in the group standings. The final race of the Track Qualifying round is at Darlington - if you're racing, bring your best.
Ties within groups will be decided by:
1. Points
2. Head to head
3. Record vs. other group teams, top to bottom
4. Points average
5. Points average in head to head matchups
6. Points average against other group teams, top to bottom.
The top two fourth-place teams will be determined solely by average score in the WC. The seeding for the first- through third-place teams will be by WC points and then WC average.
The 'World Cup Seeds' page outlines what the next round's pairings would look like if the Champion Qualifying started at Darlington.
SINGLE ELIM BRACKET
We're halfway through the second round; eight of the matchups carry margins of fewer than 100 points into Darlington.
SINGLE ELIM HEAT
We shuffled Yduck and Buford's out of the second round and added the top two teams eliminated in the first round. Round two is halfway complete; the 900+ scores appear to be on solid ground right now.
HEAD TO HEAD
The records shuffled a little bit with the no scores for Yduck and Buford's from earlier this season. RMO and napolean are still leading the standings.
DOUBLE ELIM BRACKET/HEAT
Richmond marked the first race of the third round; three races to go.

Richmond - Our Chase field is set
OVERALL
Turn Right Once in Awhile regained the overall lead from BLOWINSMOKE, but the real news from Richmond was who qualified for our Chase and who didn't.
A quick note about our seasonal Yahoo champs and Yahoo's spring, summer and fall champs - we broke each season up equally (12 races apiece), while Yahoo has a shorter fall season (just the Chase races). Why not just call it the Chase, Yahoo?
Damn Sunday Drivers and, less so, Bassman Racing appear to have jumped back into the Overall title contention.
CHASE
On the spreadsheet below, you'll find two Chase pages. One is the standings after the Richmond race, and the second is adjusted for the Chase. Again, Chase qualifiers start at 2,000 points plus stagger and win bonus points; all non-qualifiers start at 0 points with the same additions.
We had 13 teams qualify for the Chase (top 12 plus any others within 400 points of the leader, Bassman Racing).
yduck made the cut by 11 points; Revalusions missed by 32 points.
Once the points were reset (in the second Chase sheet), wins shuffled some teams. Turn Right went from the No. 2 seed to No. 7, for example. The upside is that all 13 drivers are separated by just 160 points.
Again, 50 additional points will be awarded for race victories.
RICHMOND
We had a nice bounce back from the Atlanta flat tires, with a 264 average and 10 teams above 300 (again FC Newman was not among that group). And big congrats to #3 Dale Earnhardt Sr for its 362 - the top RMFN score of the season.
WORLD CUP
Through two of four races in the quarterfinals
Tight races in the four matchups, no team is leading by more than 68 points. Current leaders are: paulmotors10, BLOWINSMOKE, Al Briggs Racing, and Damn Sunday.
DOUBLE ELIM - BRACKET
yduck is awating the winner from the losers' bracket and will sit out rounds eight and nine.
Turn Right leads ~~Gotta Love Jr~~ by 59 points with one race to go in the seventh round; BLOWINSMOKE leads Monster by just 3 points.
DOUBLE ELIM - HEAT
#3 Dale Earnhardt Sr is awaiting the emerging team from the losers' heat and will sit out rounds eight and nine.
Bassman Racing has a 112-point lead over second-place Damn Sunday; the top two advance to round nine. Turn Right and Rolling Thunder have points to make up.
SINGLE ELIM - BRACKET
Through two of six races in the semifinals
Damn Sunday leads Turn Right by just 19 points; BLOWINSMOKE has built a 168-point edge over Rolling Thunder.
SINGLE ELIM - HEAT

Tony is the Man has a big lead - 75 points over second place paulmotors10. Top two advance to the final; Turn Right and Rolling Thunder have points to make up.

Congrats to the teams that advanced to the Champions phase of the World Cup!
More comments, including a breakdown of what happened and how the next round works (it's very similar to the opening phase) before the next race.

Details are here.
Second-best week of the season for the league – 280 average and 13 scores above 300. KC Chief (42nd in Yahoo) was the surprise winner with a 361.
WORLD CUP
We have at least six teams playing in both the RPD and the RMFN, and depending on the matchups based on the seeds to start the season, the results at the end of the first round were startling for some. Cooter finished fifth in its RPD group but second in its RMFN group; the opposite was true for Hoosier.
Nine seeds were decided by tiebreakers, including two that decided automatic bids into the next round.
DAYTONA: 1. 24rules; 2. Cooter; 3. HangOnHarvick. Tiebreakers: 2-3 vs. Byhalia; 4-5 head to head.

HOMESTEAD: 1. Blue Angel Racing; 2. REDNECK; 3. Leather & Lace
