Yup, I'm back. Thanks to bmw_williams_13 and SomeDutchGuy for running the pool in my... err... break (yeah, let's call it that), and especially to SomeDutchGuy for creating his excellent website to replace my lame HTML page. Anyway, for those of you that haven't been here before, the rules...

1. I will divide the ICS field into four groups, ordered (from best to worst) A, B, C, and D (and E and F for Indianapolis only). 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. However, each competitor may, once during the season, submit their picks late (any time before the start of the pace laps). This will be tracked and reported here.
5. Rules are subject to change without notice!

Here are the pools for Texas...

Whoops! Just noticed I forgot to include Lazier. I won't move the pools around otherwise, even though they're now unbalanced... >_>

Also, AndRome, I believe you also picked Viso last week.

I keep forgetting to make picks. I did pretty well the one race I made them!
