League Rules

🏁 Lineup Rules

  • Group A: Select 1 starter and 1 bench
  • Group B: Select 2 starters and 2 bench
  • Group C: Select 1 starter and 1 bench
  • Each driver can only be started 9 times per season
  • Lineups lock 1 hour before each race
✅ How to Play
  1. Create or join a league.
  2. Before lock, submit your lineup for the upcoming race.
  3. Strategy tip: After qualifying (and before Full Lock), you can adjust your lineup — move a strong bench driver into a starter spot so they earn race finish points.
  4. After Partial Lock, league picks/points become viewable.
  5. Scores update after official NASCAR results are posted and imported by the site admin.
Starters vs Bench: Starters earn race finish points + qualifying points (if scored). Bench drivers earn qualifying points only (if scored) — bench does not earn race finish points.
Lock times: Partial Lock unlocks visibility (league picks/points). Full Lock prevents lineup edits (typically 1 hour before race).
9-start limit: The 9-start limit applies to starters only.
Quick rule of thumb: Start the drivers you think will finish highest (race points are the biggest chunk).
