When the tour goes on long breaks - we lose our threads. Oh well.

I thought Riverhead was going to provide some separation. I couldn't have been more wrong. Our AVERAGE was nearly 54 points. To give an idea - the lowest point total for the week was higher than the highest average in any previous race.

Everybody got some pole points, with JustWinBaby being the only one to correctly guess Coby for the pole.

High score for the week was bobgabes.

No change at the overall top of the standings.

It is only fitting that we go from the race with the least standard deviation in our scores – to the one with the most.

Many of us were wooed by the standard interlopers that come in for the NHIS race. They didn’t all perform that well. There were a number of late accidents, which took out many of our picks. In addition the field was very large, which meant that any incident likely dropped your driver out of a scoring position.

We had 8 people score in the 20’s. We had 2 score in the 30’s. And – we had 2 score in the 40’s. This means that the pack has tightened up drastically, as many had to use this race due to having one lower (see Stadium, Wall). The top 5 are separated by a mere 15 points. All 12 of us are within 53 points of one another.

It is fitting (there is that opening again) that in a race dominated by #2 - we featured a lot of 2nd's.

2nd highest average of a race for the season (47.3)
2nd lowest standard deviation (4.5)
2nd lowest low score (41)
2 winners for the week (bobgabes and RBH each scored 54)

Maybe the most impressive statistic is that not a single pick scored 0 points.

top step remains the same, but some mild jumbling beyond that. We return to CT a week from tonight.

Sorry folks for the delinquency in getting points updated. Work has been beyond hellacious. I assure you I will get to it soon.

Here are the much delayed Thompson results. (Oswego will come later).

We were relatively tight - only a 4 point average deviation. Lowest point total was still 35. A lot of people had Coby winning the pole which helped.

These are (conditional) Oswego results. The tech inspector sent fuel out for analysis so these may be revised.

This was another low variance race, only 4.2 points on average. Low was still 39 points, which would have been above average in 4 of the races. TourMods got a little breathing room by scoring the highest for the week. Scott came back strong, losing the week by only 1 point and jumping up to 3rd in the rankings.

The average standard deviation for the year is 6.3 points, so if I look at those within 25 points as to having a solid shot - there are still 4 within striking distance.
