FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
BUSCH North Scene Fantasy Racing Challenge

Question: I am having problems making my selections over the Internet - what should I do? Answer: The single biggest reason people have difficulty trading and registering over the Internet is due to outdated software. Our web site is very cutting edge in its technology and in order to take advantage of the improvements you have to be sure you are using the most current versions of the available browsers (Internet Explorer 5.0, Netscape 4.08, and AOL 5.0 for Windows 95/98). The second thing to look at is whether you are accepting "cookies". A cookie is a piece of information that the web site stores on your computer for future reference. Once you have entered your ID and password into the login screens, the info is stored as a cookie in your machine for use in the following pages. If you are not accepting the cookie, the following pages can't find the information they are looking for, which will then force you back to the login screen. To remedy this, go into your browser's options and make sure the option for accepting cookies in enabled, then restart your machine. If this still does not fix the problem, please contact your tech support people at your Internet Service Provider.

Question: What happens if I cannot access your website? 
Answer: This would be rare. We have a system in place that if there is a problem on the internet, our database is accessible through alternate hubs and routers. In the event that there is a major problem somewhere on the net, you will need to either 1) call the main office, or 2) email us your selections. Again, this would be extremely rare and should not ever be a problem.

Question: Do you have something in place where I can compete against my friends, family or workmates? 
Answer: Yes, you will find a feature called "team tracking" available through our contest pages that offers this option. This would be after login.

Question: What happens if I cannot select my drivers for a given race? Answer: Although it is recommended that players have access to the internet at all times during the contest, we have a viable solution for players that fall into this category. We have built a "Auto Insurance Option" that allows us to make your driver selections in your absence.

Question: What is the "Auto Insurance Option"? 
Answer: The Auto Insurance option works like this: Our program will pick your 5 drivers staying within the $1,000,000 salary cap. This option insures that your keep yourself in the running for prizes for each contest series for which you are entered. You will receive 2 drivers that are ranked (1-5), 2 drivers ranked (6-20) and 1 driver ranked higher than 20. The cost for this is ONLY $2.99 and can be purchased at the time of entry or anytime throughout the contest series for which you are entered.

Question: How long have you been running your Busch North Scene Fantasy Racing Online Challenge? Answer: This is a special arrangement with NEracing.com and we are very excited about this opportunity. We believe there is a strong presence following the BUSCH North Series and only time will tell. This will be the first season. However, we run a Fantasy NASCAR game at our main racing site - FantasyRacingOnline.com that has been around since 2000. It has been very successful and we have received high praise from our players.

Question: I noticed that all the contests are not FREE, how come? Answer: Let us answer this in two parts: 1) we have decided that we start with a FREE contest so that players can take a "test drive" without any cost to them AND still play for some nice prizes. 2) the following contest series are "fee-based" but in order to get the prizes that we have lined up for these, we need to charge a nominal fee. The fees range from $4.99 to $19.99 but the prizes are on a completely different level. You will likely be willing to spend our nominal entry fee once you see what you can win. In our "series finale" the Grand Prize will be a DAYTONA GETAWAY for two (6 days/5 nights).  View details on this Prize

Question: Do I have to select a new set of 5 drivers each race? 
Answer: Yes, you will need to select 5 new drivers each week. This is an interactive contest which requires participation. However, if you think there will be races where it might be hard to make your selections, the "Auto Insurance Option" is a nice option. The cost is only $2.99 for this service.

Question: How do I see how I compare to the rest of the players? 
Answer: Our contest pages (after login) is quite extensive. We have virtually any status you would need to enhance your experience. We have many features that other contests do NOT have. You will be quite impressed!

Question: What can I win?
Answer: For each series there will be individual race prizes for the winners PLUS Overall Prizes for the SERIES winners. There will be many "special" prizes, in particular in the races that BNS Drivers are participating. We will clearly detail all prizes before the events take place.

Question: Can I enter more than once? 
Answer: For the FREE contest you may only enter once (one person per unique email address). However, in the following fee-based contests - Absolutely! In fact we encourage it. There are no restrictions on how many entries you can have. You can increase your chances of winning series prizes dramatically by entering multiple teams.

Question: Do your Driver Salaries change? 
Answer: Yes, but only occassionally.  Dollar Values are roughly based on BNS Standings and are periodically updated throughout the contest. They will only be updated prior to a new series - never after players begin selecting their drivers.

Question: Is there a lot of ties, if so, how are they broken? 
Answer: This was one of our enhancements. There will NEVER be a tie! Our TIEBREAKER is as follows: 1. Closest to the Actual number of "Lead Changes" during the Race.  2. Closest to the Actual number of "Cautions" during the Race.   3. Whoever picked first (or the actual time your final list of drivers was compiled). Number 3 assures that there will never be ties!
