P10 Select Heads Up Racing League

Heads Up Racing League Rules

P10 Select Heads Up Racing League is a 20 team league broken up into four 5 team divisions.  Teams will follow a season schedule which will identify what other team they will compete against in each week of the 28 week regular season.  The league will be be based on wins and losses.  Outscore your opponent each week and you get a win.  The league will use a unique scoring system where players will select the winner of 10 different matchups of NASCAR drivers where they will assign a confidence value to each selection using all 10 numbers with 10 being most confident selection and 1 being least. Players must use all 10 number values so no duplicate values will be allowed. 12 Teams will make the playoff bracket and vie for the HURL Championship.

**Since this format dictates that an entry needs to be submitted every week there will be a format for any missed entries to make sure no teams will be a free win due to those missed selections.
- reverse qualifying results will be used to make an default selections
- slowest qualifier on entry sheet will be selected as first winner with a 10 point weight
- next slowest qualifier will be select as second winner with 9 points
- this will be followed till all matches have a winner selection and points assigned
- * if a driver's apponent has already been assigned the win we will move up the list to the next driver

League players will be allowed 3 missed entries per season where at that point they will be replaced.
