alright, was mentioned by someone already, but how about we pay a % of the prize pot for the 1st half of the season and the 2nd half , plus the total season winner....that way it keeps everyone into it all season long, and you would have multiple chances to win .

I think a pole bonus is good. Makes things a little different to pick especially guys like Kenseth who qualifies poorly but races well. How does his value change?

only problem with the pole bonus is that we would have to lock our lineups in before qualifying, so say you have a road coarse, and you want to take Boris Said, but he has to qualify for the race on time, but wrecks and DNQ, it would be a bad spot to be in for sure. This way we can lock in 5 mins. prior to race time.

the only way we could keep the pole would be if we locked in prior to qualifying, and I know how many times I forgot to do my yahoo league last year....just better to have up till the race to lock in your lineup imo.

Ok , as of right now, I have 20 people that want in for sure...that puts the prize pool @ $500.... I think we should award the 1st half and 2nd half of the season winner 15% of the pot - 30% total , and than payout 50% for the season winner, 15% for 2nd for the season and 5% for 3rd for the season.....this way there will be 5 payouts, it should keep everyone into it for the entire season. If anyone has any thoughts on this or suggestions , please feel free to chime in. I want this to be fun for all of us.....

I like the payout you just proposed and the percentages a lot. i wouldnt change anything concerning that. keeps things interesting for 36 weeks. i say scratch pole points. no one cares about qualifying anymore. im willing to pay whatever everyone else is willing.

Makes sense about setting line up early for Q. I know I would forget.

sounds good to me and if you go for 50 that's fine with me.That`s still less than $1.50 a race.

I mentioned $25 at the start, some people wanted to go more...Should we go to say $35, that would give us $700 where we stand right now?

Sent everyone an email, looks like $35 will be the winner, everyone who has responded back so far is for it.
