Finally got that win! The field may have been shorter than expected but these wins are hard enough to come by, I'll take it. All entries were on point his week, great job to everyone! Congrats!!! And to everyone, don't forget to submit feedback! It may be the Chase, but that doesn't mean people don't want to know how their car did! |

We are going to extend Race 8 until next Friday the 6th.
This is for two main reasons. First I am hoping the extra week will give others a chance to enter. Second I have been dealing with personal issues and do not have the time to do anything outside of spending time with my family this week.
I apologize if this has caused any inconvenience. If you have already submitted an entry you can continue to work on your entry and post new pictures if you wish with out taking a penalty to your starting position.

I can't believe that I got a win this year especially in race 9 for the chase. Everybody in Exide Series that submitted their paint schemes in Martinsville were very good. My toughest competitor in the exide series this year for the regular season and the chase was Nightowl, and he was the one that got me into the PBC this year after last year. I did not expect to win a race this year being my rookie year, and still learning to be better each race and in the future of my painting career in the PBC.

The Martinsville results honestly confuse me, but hey... I have a shot at Homestead it seems.

The Martinsville results honestly confuse me, but hey... I have a shot at Homestead it seems. Only two people submitted scorecards for that series. Not to take away from Andrew's win, but that certainly had a big influence on the results. Is anyone else having troubles seeing Kane's pictures? I was going to submit my scorecard today but wasn't able to see any of his images. |

I can't say I'm not disappointed after Martinsville, but part of the blame can be put on myself. I can say I've been scoring this year, which, I know I should, but I've always been kinda of fearful of doing so since any one score can cause a major change in resualts with such a small field. That, and I don't want to rush through it, for the same reason. I'll definetly work on that more for next year. As hard as it is to do some weeks, it's essential to the PBC.
I gotta admit though, I've had a great year. I've improved far more than I ever thought I could, and I'm slowly starting to contend for resualts. A ton of people have helped me out in many ways this season, and I'll always be greatful for that.

I would've, and actually I'd planned to do feedback, scoring, all that until some school and computer things got in the way unfortunately. |

I'm excited that my Oreo car was able to grab another win! That scheme has been good to me. In the Chase, it's a matter of when to enter your best car. My strategy was I had a feeling I wouldn't be contending for a championship because of how great Energy and Hartwig have been, so I decided to enter my best car in Race 9 to give me a better chance of at least getting IN the final round. I didn't know what the heck to do once I got to Race 10 haha. I just wanted to make sure I got there and then see what happens  And looking at the results for the Exide Series, that just shows how important it is to have everyone score! Nothing against Andrew though. A win is a win. Congrats! |

Probably the biggest upset win in PBC, at least in the time I've been involved. I scored an upset W my rookie year and it gave me alot of confidence going forward so, enjoy that banner! With that said, I'll be submitting my Homestead scores soon, hopefully everyone else is too if they haven't already. |

First, congrats to Nightowl in the title. Felt like I had something, but hey. Season 1 and I'd say I did alright.
My only bit of input, however, is this... rather than having zeroes go into these Championship scores, and in this case only 2 scores to some of the cars, why not have the opposite series score instead? So in this instance, Snap-On scores Exide, and Exide scores Snap-On. Just makes more sense to me than a bunch of zeroes all over the scoreboard.
Oh, and congrats to Energy as well!

Congrats Energy and nightowl! You both earned it. This was a really competitive season for both series. not azspud00 Zeroes basically reward those who score, and in the Chase, it's almost even more important to score, so personally I wouldn't change that. And to go along with the importance of scoring, I wouldn't score the opposite series either. Just like the Exide Series is about growing as a painter and gaining more experience before moving up, the same should go for scoring. |

Wow..I'm still a bit shocked, I never would have imagined this 18 months ago when I was bringing up the rear every week. I want to thank everyone involved with PBC, this is a great online community with healthy competition that makes painting that much more enjoyable.
Thanks to everyone who provided feedback all year. I really listened to what you guys had to say and I hope that showed with my chase entries.
I'll save the rest for the banquet lol. In the mean time...
Burn 'Em down Champ!
