I will be starting an NHC Prep thread in the Contest forum sometime today. The goal will be the practice picking optional races from the projected tracks for the next several weekends up until the NHC week. I am currently grabbing historical scores and projecting what the target daily scores need to be to make day 3, and will incorporate that into a "fun" contest of sorts, but more for practice and to try to get myself thinking the way I imagine I will need to while in vegas.

I may try to incorporate the mandatory aspect of it as well.

Not sure how useful past scores will be. This will be the largest field ever and by far. That could make scores higher.

But, this is the first ever event where we play races from Thursday and Friday. No weekend means no stakes and smaller fields. In fact, finding eight tracks running on Thursday will be a challenge let alone much quality or field size. This figures to lower scores.

Tough to say what the cut off will be.

My own advice, do not worry about prior anything. Set a personal goal for day one ($70-$100 probably puts you right in the mix) and go from there.

By the way, I love the enthusiasm. Enjoy the experience.

I would imagine there's only going to be 6 tracks on Thursday with Tampa dark. The only ones that can be used are AQU-GP-FG-OP-SA-GG and we better hope for good weather!

Just got an email from them, those are the tracks for Thurs, add TB for Fri and Sat. Subject to change it says (of course).
