I’ve been pretty quiet about my Fantasy Cup Racing Team here lately, and with good reason; I haven’t been doing worth a patooter.

I can attribute my decline to a spate of mid-season greed, where I had racing dynasty on the brain and lots of trade tokens to spend. I traded a bunch of perfectly good guys for a group that had potential; unfortunately this potential didn’t translate to on-track performance. Out of trade tokens, and unwilling to buy anymore for this season, I determined to finish out the season with the team I had. And I was somewhat rewarded today, finishing on the north side of 1000 points for the first time in weeks. Not a major victory, but enough of a late season boost to make me want to play again next year.

And hats off to my favorite, Kevin Harvick, on winning the Checkers 500 from Phoenix this afternoon.
