Gentlemen, start your engines ... and go pick up your prize! Ladies too, of course.

Starting this week, Jefferson City Sub Shop, KRCG and Loeffler's Link will sponsor a NASCAR contest each and every week. The winner gets a free foot-long from Jefferson City Sub Shop --- which has the best subs in town --- along with a bag of chips and large drink.

Call this Racing for Roast Beef. Or Hammering down for Ham. Or Turning Left for Tuna Salad. Just win, baby, and it's your choice.

Here's the deal: Pick the top four finishers in each race, the order doesn't matter. If you get the winner, you earn eight points; second place is worth five points; third is worth three; and correctly naming No. 4 earns one point. Total points possible: 17.

Tiebreaker: The first driver to exit the race. If there is still a tie, a coin flip will decide the winner.

Deadline is race time. This week, it's 11:30 a.m. Sunday as NASCAR hits the Kansas Speedway for the STP 400. Send your picks to tloeffler@krcg.com prior to the deadline.

Good luck!
