Our selection of a winner will begin on Sunday the 30th. We will try to select our monthly winners in a way that is open and out in front. We could draw names from a hat, but that would not be all that transparent would it?

Because our selection schemes could possibly be mathematically loopy on occasion, we will vary the selection scheme each month.

So for April we'll break it down like this:

1st Round:

The first elimination will be based on the 1st place car number of the Aaron's 499 NASCAR Race at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday the 30th.

An EVEN winning car number will mean we pick from user names starting with a LETTER.

An ODD winning car number will mean we pick from user names starting with a NUMBER


2nd Round:

We pick from the list above described Fn-Site Supporter user names. The first letter of the 2nd Place driver's first name will be matched up with the first letter appearing in the user-name of our remaining contestants from the 1st round elimination.

If there is only one match we have a winner. If there is no match, we will hit the first name on the list above or below with a letter that is closest. If there are more than one match, we will have a third round.

At current, all user-names starting with letters or numbers have letters in them to match up. If for some reason by the time we select names, we have a Fn-Site Supporter with all numerals in their user-name, we'll come up with an alternate 2nd round elimination.


3rd Round (if needed):

The 3rd place car number will be matched to the ages of our remaining Fn-Site Supporters from Round 2. If we have a match, we have a winner. No match, means we hit the closest age.


BONUS PRIZE: If the winning car is a ROUSH team car, an extra BONUS PRIZE will be included for the winner.
