I AM WITH YOU, THE SCORING SYSTEM IS A JOKE!!!

the bench drivers are elgible for qualifying points also. But they are for last minute changes before the race if you want to swap them in place of one of the starters. Once the deadline ends to make your picks for the race, there is another deadline after that to change starters and bench drivers.

I still have no idea how the scoring system works! How do we get points from the bench guys? In fact what is the purpose of the bench guys?

Hey guys - You know that I'm not the one to give you the answer to that one - I'm still wet behind the ear myself on the scoring rules too,
(lol)
Maybe one of the fellows with alot more knowledge of the game, that I'm still learning about ,will chime in & break it down for ya,
but this is what I got about it from Yahoo:

Fantasy Nascar League Scoring:
Each driver can receive a maximum of 90 fantasy points during each race. The top 45 finishers receive points, with the winning driver getting the maximum 90, and other drivers receiving 2 fewer points for every spot they finish behind the leader (e.g, the second-place driver gets 88 points, the third-place driver gets 86).
You receive the total points earned by all active drivers on your team provided that they haven't already been active in nine races (see the Maximum Starts section for more information).
Bonus points are awarded to each of the drivers with the four best starting positions after qualifying. The top qualifier receives 10 bonus points, the second receives 5, the third receives 3, and the fourth receives 1. Because qualifying for Daytona 500 is broken up over 2 days, these bonus points are not awarded for the Daytona 500.
An additional 10 bonus points are awarded to each driver who leads at least one lap during a race. The driver leading the most laps during a race will also earn another 10 bonus points. To earn these bonus points for your fantasy team, a driver must be on your team and active during the race.
If a race is officially canceled, no fantasy team will receive any points for that race. All other scoring rules stay the same. If qualifying or a race is delayed or postponed, no points will be awarded until the event (qualifying or the race) is completed. If qualifying is canceled, the starting grid is determined by practice speeds. If practice was also canceled, then the starting grid is determined by Sprint Cup points standings. Either way, no qualifying bonus points will be awarded.

Weekly Finishes are based on Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Racing team finishes, not based on actual driver finishes.
Here is a breakdown of how Weekly Finishes are scored:

• The group member with the highest weekly total score will be given a Win, Top 5 and Top 10 finish
• The group members who finished 2nd through 5th will be given Top 5 and Top 10 finishes
• The group members who finished 6th through 10th will be given Top 10 finishes
• The group members who finished 11th or lower are not eligible for a Weekly Finish
