“Official” IndyCar Pool: Kansas

Welcome back to the pool! Last week was very close, with six people within 10 points. bmw_williams_13 managed to eke out a win by 2 points over EarlofSpeed, with smuff76 coming within 4 points of extending his win streak. The entry list for Kansas is different, necessitating some shuffling of the groups-make sure you look closely at them before you choose!

Here, once again, are the rules...

1. I will divide the ICS field into four groups, ordered (from best to worst) A, B, C, and D. These groups will be determined by a combination of points, subjective observations, questionable analysis, shaky conclusions, and random guessing. They may (and will) change throughout the season as drivers do, but I will not attempt to separate oval and road course performance and groups.
2. Everyone who wants to play must select one driver per group per race (well, you don't have to do every race, or every group for that matter, but both are highly recommended!). The only restriction is that you cannot choose the same driver for two consecutive races. This applies even if I switch the groups around and you end up quite restricted in one group.
3. Points are quite simple: your points are the same as the combined ICS points for all four of your drivers. Highest at the end of the season wins... something
4. Picks are due when qualifying starts. This goes for Indy too. Also note that, for Indy, there will likely be groups E and F consisting of any Indy-only entries.
5. Rules are subject to change without notice!

And, of course, the groups... aside from the obvious changes, Matos has been moved up to group C to make room for Fisher, who debuts in group D.

Current up to: April 22-Initial for Kansas

Group A
Briscoe, Castroneves, Dixon, Franchitti, Kanaan
Group B
Andretti, Doornbos, Mutoh, Patrick, Wheldon
Group C
Hunter-Reay, Matos, Meira, Rahal, Viso, Wilson
Group D
Barrett, Carpenter, Conway, Fisher, Moraes, Dreyer & Reinbold #23 (Duno?)

Remember to check the official pool website, http://students.cec.wustl.edu/~bpd1/ICSPool.html, for more details and the full, current standings, as well as if you need a reminder as to who you picked last week. (If you did not pick last week, you can pick anyone you want, even if you picked at St. Pete.)

Good luck, everyone!

BJWilliams and Grizzlor, you both picked someone you also picked last week (Matos and Kanaan, respectively). I know my website is ugly, but please check it to make sure you don't make that mistake smile

yeah about that, could you do a different background color other than red, or make the text a brighter color instead because it's really hard to read.
