STEEM Cup Series Contest
Race Information
Axalta Presents the Pocono 400
Sunday, June 11, 2017 – 3:00pm ET
Pocono Raceway – Long Pond, Pennsylvania
The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series heads to Pennsylvania this week for the Pocono 400. The Pocono Raceway is a 2.5-mile “tri-oval” track, known as “The Tricky Triangle.” This year’s race is scheduled for 160 laps, split into two 50-lap stages and one final 60-lap stage to determine the race winner. Last year’s race was red-flagged due to fog with only 22 laps to go, which left Chris Buescher as the race winner.
Current forecasted temperatures for the race in Long Pond on Sunday will be in the mid- to upper-80s with no expected precipitation.
The drivers have completed qualifying for their start positions in Sunday’s race. You can find their qualifying times/positions at the following link: NASCAR Race Center.
Driver Selections and Points
Each contestant will choose three drivers for the weekly STEEM Cup Series from the field of qualifying drivers. Based on the number of drivers and the final results of the race, drivers will be assigned points as follows:
| Results | Points Awarded |
|---|---|
| 1st place | 40 |
| 2nd place | 39 |
| 3rd place | 38 |
| ... | ... |
| 38th place | 3 |
| 39th place | 2 |
| 40th place | 1 |
Once these points are tallied, they will be divided by 2. After the points are divided, the following bonus points will be awarded/deducted:
+15 points for the race winner.
+10 points for unique driver combinations. If two or more contestants select the same drivers, then only the first contestant to post those selections will earn the bonus points. ENTRIES THAT ARE NOT UNIQUE DRIVER COMBINATIONS WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE RACE WINNER BONUS (+15 points)
+3 points for each driver finishing the race ahead of MY DRIVER.
-2 points for each driver finishing the race behind MY DRIVER.
My selected driver for the Monster Energy NASCAR All-Star Race is: JAMIE MCMURRAY
Contestants cannot choose JAMIE MCMURRAY as one of their drivers for this race.
How to Play and Win

Looks like @thebeesknees beat you to the punch on these drivers by about 30 seconds.
So, I can't contest?
You'll just have to come up with a unique combination of drivers or you won't be eligible for the bonus points.
