2015 NFRL Format and Rules


It's back! After a four year hiatus the Nix Family Racing League (NFRL) has returned with a brand new format and new set of rules!

Concept

Pick two drivers for each points race. You receive the same points they get for the race. Whoever accumulates the most points over the 36 race season wins the championship and ultimate bragging rights.

Rules

  1. You must pick two (2) drivers for each race. One (1) from Group A (The 16 drivers that competed in last year's Chase for the Sprint Cup) and one (1) from Group B (All other drivers)
  2. You can only choose a driver a maximum of three (3) times during the season, so choose carefully.
  3. Picks must be submitted by 12:00 pm CST on the Friday before the race to be accepted without penalty.
  4. Picks will still be accepted from 12:00 pm CST up until the throwing of the green flag, however, if your picks are late you will only receive half the points your two (2) drivers earn.
  5. The Competition Committee reserves the right to add any number of Bonus Rounds which will give you the opportunity to earn more points. Picks in the Bonus Rounds will not count toward you season limit on driver picks.
  6. If you pick a driver who does not receive points in the Sprint Cup Series (i.e. Chase Elliott, Ty Dillon, Brian Scott, etc.) you will receive the points that they would have received if they were points eligible. 
  7. Picks can be submitted either through the Racebook fan page on Facebook or by emailing the commissioner's office at winnk281@yahoo.com

*These are known Full-Time drivers in 2015. You may also pick any part-time driver as you so choose, Beware, if you pick a part-time driver and that driver does not participate in the race, that pick will still count toward your season limit.
** Brian Vickers will miss the first two (2) races of the season as he recovers from heart surgery. My advice, don't pick him for those two races. 

As always, feel free to invite your friends. The more the merrier. Also, any questions, complaints, etc. can be sent directly to the commissioner's office where they will dutifully be ignored.

Looking forward to a great season. Happy Racin' Y'all!
