PM picks are all in and now locked!

Sean: Larson
Alan: Bowman
Greg: Elliott
Mikko: Chastain

Good luck!

Just missing picks from @Alen Bat (P14) and @Ryan McCorkle (R132) to round out the set for this week. And an FYI to @Brady Anderson (R111) that his Logano pick will be a penalty unless changed, since he's already chosen Logano this season.

A bit into Stage 2 and Larson, Elliott and Chastain in top 10 whereas Bowman about 18th-20th, looking good for Sean...?

OOooof that is Elliott and Greg in serious trouble? :/ Lap down now due to going into the wall after Chastain's bump on him in the start of last stage. Bowman still not much anywhere and Larson up high so Sean's on top of this

Not usual at all to have a 4-way fight in the last race of this OBS Challenge but some action there's been:

Elliott in the wall hard and 2 laps down, Bowman in the wall harder and 3 laps down, that's nearly sealed it for Sean! Can't really lose it to me now either as Larson can't finish lower than 34th anymore and Chastain hasn't won either of the first two stages


Yep congrats Sean ;)

Thanks for a fun season, all! I tried snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory late in the season, but got just lucky enough.
Special thanks of course to Greg, really appreciate all your time and effort!

And yeah, that move by Chastain was wild to see live -- probably the move of the decade? Everyone in the crowd absolutely lost their minds when it registered what we had all just seen. I was so focused on Bell winning, that I didn't even notice until the middle of Turn 3 and 4, but even then it didn't register what was happening until it was well past.

That was the coolest motor racing move I've EVER seen!

That was already so wild and full of maniacal laughter to watch it live on tv, that I can't imagine the uproar in the stands. Much the same that it was not noticed until the replay ha. But a move of the year at least.

Thanks for hosting again Greg! I didn't bother checking yet but I assumed that a 4-way battle for the win in last race hasn't happened very often. Made my most of it but Sean had one too many top contender left. Congrats, a solid victory after all the hanging on of hanging on!

Not that I had much more left on the table, other than Chastain punting Räikkönen, Hand and was it Reddick too in the races I selected them, and on top of that the usual Ricky Wreckhouse wrecking pick. Good stuff!
