Post them here. I would like to do something weekly this year in addition to the top three contest we have had in previous years.

I like the "payroll" style General Manager game that ESPN.com does. You get $100,000,000 and must pick 5 drivers each week. Driver values change based on performance, but you lock in your price if they go up, and you can "renegotiate" and get them at the new price if they go down.

Of course the better drivers go for around 25-27 each, and scrubs start at 10. You MUST have 5 drivers for each race, meaning you have to take some scrubs. Points are awarded based on the points that driver recieved for the race.....

LOVE IT!

How about something like every week you pick 3 drivers 1st you get 5 points 2nd 3 and 3rd 1 and do that for the full season person with the most points wins or top 3 people or 5 or whatever and have a $100 bonus or something if someone 3 drivers finish in the top 3 that way you got a weely contest and a season long contest

Hook man I am gonna try my ass off to get to Charlotte this year. Give me some dates if you have them and I will get started today on that. On the contest idea, would we have to play at ESPN.com or would we be able to set it up here?

Stocks, I like that idea also. I definitely want something we do every single week in addition to something where we pick the top three at the beginning of the season like we have done is past years.

Anyone else?????

Hey Michael. I also like Stock's format. I was in a couple contests like this last year and it worked very well.

Thanks for all the contests.

Payroll/GM game would have to be played at ESPN.com

The dates for Charlotte are always the same:

All Star Race- Sat night before memorial Day weekend

Coca Cola 600- Sunday Night of Memorial day weekend

UAW GM 500 Fall race is now Sat night, either first or seceond weekend in October, I'll check the dates on that one

Other way is like the league your in MC:

1) Break drivers into Class A, Class b, and Class C
2) You must pick one driver in each class
3) You can only use a driver X times throughout the year.
