STEEM Cup Series Contest


Race Information


Overton’s 400
Sunday, July 30, 2017 – 3:00pm ET
Pocono Raceway – Long Pond, Pennsylvania

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series heads to the Pocono Raceway this week for the Overton’s 400. The Pocono Raceway is a 2.5-mile tri-oval track. The race is scheduled for 160 laps, with two 50-lap stages and one final 60-lap stage to determine the race winner.

Coming into this weekend’s race, Martin Truex Jr. is at the top of the Monster Energy Series standings. He leads the pack with 780 points, followed by Kyle Larson with 732 and Kevin Harvick with 683.

The current weather forecast for Sunday’s race in Long Pond has temperatures in the low- to mid-70s and no precipitation is expected.

The drivers have not yet completed qualifying for their start positions in Sunday’s race. You can find their practice times and the updated qualifying times/positions prior to race time at the following link: NASCAR Race Center.


Driver Selections and Points


Each contestant will choose three drivers for the weekly STEEM Cup Series from the field of qualifying drivers. Based on the number of drivers and the final results of the race, drivers will be assigned points as follows:


ResultsPoints Awarded
1st place40
2nd place39
3rd place38
......
38th place3
39th place2
40th place1


Once these points are tallied, they will be divided by 2. After the points are divided, the following bonus points will be awarded/deducted:

+10 points for unique driver combinations. If two or more contestants select the same drivers, then only the first contestant to post those selections will earn the bonus points. ENTRIES THAT ARE NOT UNIQUE DRIVER COMBINATIONS WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR ANY OF THE ADDITIONAL BONUS POINTS.

+15 points for the race winner.

+3 points for each driver finishing the race ahead of MY DRIVER.

My selected driver for the Monster Energy NASCAR All-Star Race is: AUSTIN DILLON
Contestants cannot choose AUSTIN DILLON as one of their drivers for this race.


How to Play and Win


  1. In a comment on this post, submit the full names of your three drivers. ONLY ONE COMMENT SUBMISSION PER USER, PER WEEKLY CONTEST.

  2. Submissions will be confirmed and locked in at the start of the weekly race. ALL CONTEST SUBMISSIONS MUST BE ENTERED PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED START TIME OF THE RACE. Late submissions and any edits after that time will be automatically disqualified from the weekly contest.

  3. There will be three winners each week. The winners will be the contestants with the most points gained, based on the points distribution outlined in Driver Selections. All point totals earned from all contestants will carry over for the monthly and season-long contests.

  4. The contest is funded with a minimum pot of 5 SBD. The total weekly pot distribution will be divided as follows:


PlaceRewards Percentage
1st50%
2nd30%
3rd20%


In the event of a tie, the true point total (non-rounded value of total points) will be used in an attempt to break the tie. If a tie remains, then the pot will be split between the tying contestants.
