I thought the race started later, so the picks on the Bristol thread are intended for Bristol and the defaults should be used for this race.

I thought the race started later, so the picks on the Bristol thread are intended for Bristol and the defaults should be used for this race.

I did not bump the thread like usual with our dealing with NC Beast's recent health issue. I thought you had picks in already so I did not bump this thread while making Bristol at the beginning of the race. I was tired all week from the dog and stuff.

NC Beast is doing better and a couple more appointments to go while he searches for a full-time job (needs luck and prayers for this part...goes through interview process even while he was in the hospital).
