Race to Victory is a fantasy racing challenge for the Sprint Cup series of NASCAR. For each race, you’ll pick four drivers and be awarded points based on their place to the finish line. Throughout the challenge, we’ll give away a series of prizes ranging from car wash passes to tickets to local events. Winners will be picked based on total points for the previous race. If there are several winners, we will randomly select the winner. The prize for the weekly winner for the Sharpie 500 race is a $49.99 Car Wash/Lube gift certificate!

You’ll need to register and check your email to confirm your registration. If you’ve played any of the other Beat the Experts games, you can use your existing login information.
