Back by popular demand is the Nix Family Racing League (NFRL), but this year I'm not going to take it easy on you guys. Rules are below with a few subtle changes/additions from last year.
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
- Pick two (2) drivers for each race. One (1) from Group A (The 15 drivers that competed in last year's Chase for the Sprint Cup) and one (1) from Group B (All other drivers)
- You can only choose a driver a maximum of three (3) times during the season, so choose carefully.
- Picks must be submitted by 12:00 pm CST on the Friday before the race (unless otherwise noted) to be accepted without penalty. You can change these picks any number of times before the deadline with no penalty.
- Picks will still be accepted after the deadline up until the drop of the green flag, however, you will only receive half points for each late pick.
- You may change your picks anytime between the deadline and the drop of the green flag, but doing so will incur the same penalty as a late pick. There are 2 exceptions to this rule: If your driver becomes ill or injured after the deadline and cannot compete in the race, you can either change drivers without penalty OR take the replacement driver without it counting toward your total # of picks for either driver. If your driver is suspended by either NASCAR or their team you can either take the replacement driver, but the pick will still count toward your season total OR change your pick and incur the half point penalty.
- If you pick a driver who does not receive points in the Sprint Cup Series (i.e. Ty Dillon, Erik Jones, etc.) you will receive the points that they would have received if they were points eligible.
- 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.
- Picks can be submitted through the Racebook fan page on Facebook.

*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.
** Both Jeffrey Earnhardt and Michael McDowell are consisdered the primary drivers for these rides, but Earnhardt will share some time with Bobby Labonte and McDowell will share time with Ty Dillon, so choose carefully.
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!
