Introduction
Welcome to CJ's Pick Six (Champ Car)
What is the pick six? In the pick six, you assume the role of a racing analyst. You will choose your favorite (or not so favorite) drivers who you think will finish in the top 6 positions of each race in the current calendar year. All Champ Car races are all to be counted into the Pick Six Championship. Since schedules may be changed, we will pick as they come so check the schedule and watch the racing news for racing dates and details. Based on your picks and the drivers finishing position, you will receive points. The overall goal is to win the Championship.
Anybody can become an analyst, and you can start at any point during the season. All you have to do is submit a line-up. We can have as many analysts as wish to play.

Driver Position Submission
All Analysts are asked to use the entry form or submit via email, drivers complete names for each race in the order you think they will finish. Some drivers have the same last name; If you do not submit the complete driver name, or an appropriate abbreviation, in these cases, no points will be scored.
Picks can be submitted any time up until race time. Picks should be posted using Pick Six entry form. Internet E-mail to will be accepted. Please allow service time to connect/transfer as Pick Six will be using the time it is received, not sent. Normally, the final picks are retrieved as the green flag falls.
If submission cannot be made for a particular race, previous race picks will be used. These picks will be carried over for 6 weeks, but a penalty will be assessed after two races (see scoring). Arrangements can be made to accommodate vacations, or other times when picks cannot be made. While it is recommended picks be made each week, you don't have to worry about posting a new line-up every race to play.
Results will be displayed on the result's. Results will be sent via email if you use the form below.

Points and Scoring
Points are awarded to analysts based on their picks and the actual drivers finishing position in the races. Analysts who pick the correct driver to finish in 1st would score the points for 1st. If an analyst picks a driver that finishes in the top six, but not the correct position, 6 points are scored.

Front row starts are also awarded points. If the driver you pick for the front row starts in the pole position, 7 points are scored. If the driver you pick for the front row starts in the outside pole position, 3 points are scored.
If an analyst does not post a new line-up for two consecutive races a descending scale will be used to determine the 'penalty'. Use the following table to determine penalty %.
