*Xfinity Picks- Based on 2022 owners’ points if a car is fielded in 2023 along w/ Cole Custer, limited to two picks per segment.
*Truck Picks- Based on 2022 owners’ points if a truck is fielded in 2023 along w/ Grant Enfinger & Christian Eckes, limited to two picks per segment.
*If a driver did not make the cup playoffs in 2022 you can select that driver as many times if you want in any series.
*Please keep track of your picks or refer back to the website to know what drivers you have available. If a driver’s number is in red that means you have already used them for that segment and will not be able to use again until next segment. If you accidently try to use a driver twice in one segment it will result in 0 points for that race.

Segment 2- 13 cup races Charlotte-Daytona (Plus all Xfinity & Truck races). (Winner will be total points earner)

Playoffs
*Only the top 24 players from cumulative points earned from segments 1 and 2 will qualify for segment 3- 10 race playoff.
*Winners of segment 1 and 2 automatically make playoffs if they do not make it in on cumulative points, if either of the winners of segment 1 or 2 are outside the top 16 they would knock out players on points
