This is a Trial run. just seeing if anyone wants to play along
My thought was we post a picture of our Team in a Thread
And then have a discussion about who we picked and why.
How we did etc.
Basically have our own Fantasy chat like JT, Mathes and his guys Do .
Anybody want to play along?

Yeah why not? I had a bad round 1....

My team:
Cooper, Clout, Lieb, Tanti
Friese, AC, Marty, Bogle

So i took the "safe" route in the 450 class but not in the 250 which was a big mistake.

I'll start
250's
I think I Had most of The highest Scoring guys.
Michael Lieb. Did great and got me double points.
Cameron McAdoo. I was trying to Go away from the most obvious All-Star and just hope I got it Right. He did ok
6th I think with a 4 Handi cap not bad.
Christian Craig did great and was Also one of the Highest scoring 250 riders.
But I also had him as my Holeshots pic so I lost 7 points there.
Mitchell Oldenburg. Was my bad pick, I thought he would do better because I knew he raced in Australia. So my gut let me down on that one.
450's
Justin Brayton. He just missed double points but was doing good all night. Same though as Mitchell. Coming off Australia I just had a gut feeling he would do well, plus on a Factory Honda now.
Vince Friese did good got me double points and is A guy that seems like he is still improving.
Justin Hill. I was gambling with him and I knew it. I just think he has some top 5's in him maybe even podiums but he could also be a guy that could ruin some people's fantasy , so I'll take what I got and be happy.
Kenny Roczen was my All-Star. Not his best night but he got ok points so it is what it is.

Firts Lap Leaders Got me
I picked both classes and Got Both wrong
Ken Roczen 450
Christian Craig 250.
How Did Y'all Do?
I guess I didn't Start Smile
Anyway I suppose I should have included Score
Mine was 209

Man even your safe Route seems risky.
Marty! Fast for sure and a lot of potential upside but know to be a crasher also

I hadn't thought to check the Vital league but I just did.
Im currently 62nd place
Honestly I thought about Picking A Mart he was good in practice and I live in Minnesota so almost went with my heart.
Did you have fun though ?

Looks like that Tanti ( who I've never heard of) got a lot of people. Even some Experts had him.

I was beamin during the race. During the the first few laps of the 450's, when Hill and Friese were up front, I was all "I'm GETTING A JERSEY"

It was the best I've finished, so it was fun. I was hoping with the forkner penalty bringing Craig higher, I'd wake up and be in it for a prize. But I dropped like 150 spots..

It's a lot of fun. The first year, I didn't know wtf I was doing picking all stars every round. But once I kind of figured it out, It's made it much more enjoyable.

I don't know how some of those dudes that win all the time can hold it together an entire season though. I'd shit my pants if I had two good races in a row. haha

I failed. I had Oldenburg on 250 and Bloss on 450. Can't be in the championship hunt unless you get all 8 through to the main and have 7/8 finish in the top ten.

For 250 I had: Fernandis, Craig, Brown and Clout. 3 out of 4 is what the guy leading the series had. Clout was running 10th with a -2 handicap, so it was a bummer when he DNF'ed mid race. Craig seemed like a no brainer pick (although hindsight is always 20/20). Brown had some decent practice time and healthy handicap, he was a gamble that paid off.

For 450: Roczen, Davalos, Mookie and Bloss. Kenny was meh, Davalos had a bad start and came back but missed double points by one. Mookie made double and points and Bloss... well looked good in practice but didn't make the main

As far as I know you do. Roczen was my 450 all star and Justin Cooper was my 250. They have just the black background for the all stars and the other picks have that highlighted background.

This is my first time doing pulp. I had 249 points and finished 87th. Every one of my riders were the top scorers of their classes except Roczen who finished with 4th place points. I dont understand how in the world 86 other people beat me. I was in 16th place til they docked forkner and moved craig up. The funny thing? I had craig and not forkner so I shouldn't have gone anywhere but up. Oh well, I've come to the realization already that it's probably pretty much impossible to win any prizes Angry

I had a decent team, really only got bit by picking Marty and Blose. Otherwise the rest were all solid! Lost 7 points to the first lap leader thing, probably should avoid that feature going forward as I never seem to get it right.

Tanti screwed my picks, much like everyone else. Almost top 10 in the Vital league, apparently. Switched Drake out at the last second since Racer X tweeted out he missed his gate pick so I went with Carson Brown instead. Only cost me a couple of points.

This was my first go at this, I scored a 201, all my guys were in the main. Was watching the live scoring thinking, dang, over 200 has to end up pretty good... placed 1453... yikes.
