In a sort of prelude to what will be coming in Fantasy League 2.0, this week debuts the ability to vote for race winners. You can check it out for this week's race which was seeded Wednesday night.

Vote for this week's winners
http://www.redlinederby.com/fantasy/official.php?id=6

You'll see the "Vote" button next to each car. Just vote for which one you think will win and you'll see what others think right away.

This voting has no bearing on your score or anything else, it's just for fun. And then when the results are posted it will show the real winner along with the winner by votes, so it should be interesting to see if your votes are correct.

This is sort of how League 2.0 will work with brackets. You'll pick the winners only you'll get points for your correct picks.

God help me...

Love the new voting ability. Just a quick question, is there anyway to have it save your voting picks? While voting, I accidentally clicked on a link and when I went back, all my picks were lost. I had to go back and start over picking winners. No big deal, but I noticed every time I went back to the page, it gave me the ability to vote again.

Or if not, maybe just give a button to view results, so if we already voted we can see them instead of having to vote again to see? Just some comments, no biggie. I really enjoyed voting and can't wait to see the results.

All good points and all stuff that needed to be in there but I wanted to get the voting rolled out quick.

Probably won't get around to building in saving *your* votes, but adding a "View results" button is certainly something that should have been there from the start...and easier to add. I'll work on that this weekend.

However, if Fantasy League 2.0 becomes a reality, the saved voting will be true and it will directly impact your play in the game.

Just wanted to let y'all know I added a "View results" link at the top of the race pages so you can see results without having to vote.

And it looks like the Land Rover has some resistance! Good luck little Bluebird!!

Do you see any upsets, where the favored car will fall?

Bandeezee 5/1/10

My upsets:

2009 Nissan GT-R beats 1968 Mustang

Cooper mini beats Ferrari 430 Scuderia (not sure about this one)

Scirocco GT 24 beats Ferrari California

Nissan 370Z beats Ferrari 430 Challenge

Nissan Z beats VW Bug

Those are my picks. As you can see, I'm kind of a Nissan fan and don't really care for Ferrari's. The only Ferrari I like is the Testarossa.

Bandeezee 5/2/10

My upsets:

* 2009 Nissan GT-R beats 1968 Mustang (Correct)

* Scirocco GT 24 beats Ferrari California (Wrong)
* Nissan 370Z beats Ferrari 430 Challenge (Wrong)

Love the ability to vote and the new way of showing the results. It would be awesome to have our own picks saved for us so we can directly see how well we picked once the results are in.
