2006 Forum "Pick 'Em" - Indy 500 "Pole Day"

2006 Indy 500 “Pole Day” Pick ‘em Contest
May 13, 2006

DEADLINE: Saturday, May 13, at Noon (GMT), which is 6 a.m. In “The Racing Capital of the World”

NOTE: These are for “Pole Day” only…and read them carefully, because the Quals format is different at Indy than it is anywhere else in the world. They take the Average Speed of four laps here, and the fastest single lap doesn’t necessarily get set by the pole sitter.

Let's Try Again:

2006 Indy 500 “Pole Day” Pick ‘em Contest
May 13, 2006

DEADLINE: Saturday, May 13, at Noon (GMT), which is 6 a.m. In “The Racing Capital of the World”

NOTE: These are for “Pole Day” only…and read them carefully, because the Quals format is different at Indy than it is anywhere else in the world. They take the Average Speed of four laps here, and the fastest single lap doesn’t necessarily get set by the pole sitter.

Also, there will be a lot of cars “at speed” that will have to come back on Day Two to Qualify, because they won’t be in the Top 11 average speeds on Pole Day…This new format won’t even fill four rows on Pole Day

QUALIFYING PICKS:

1. The Pole Winner: (2 pts)

2. The Pole Winner's “Average Qualifying Speed” (4-Lap Average) (2 pts.)
Carry it out to the one-thousandth place like IRL Scoring does:

NOTE: IF you get BOTH #1 and #2 Correct/Closest, add 2 "Bonus Points"

3.The Driver who will Run the “Single Fastest Qualifying Lap” (2 pts.)

4. The Actual Speed of that “Fast Lap” (2 pts.)

NOTE: IF you get BOTH #1 and #2 Correct/Closest, add 2 "Bonus Points"

5. List the Pole Winner Again, plus the OTHER TEN drivers (in order) who will earn the 11 total spots available in the Field on "Pole Day”: (2 pts for each Driver in correct spot, 1 pt. For correct Driver, but wrong spot)

ROW ONE:
1.
2.
3.

ROW TWO:
1.
2.
3.

ROW THREE:
1.
2.
3.

ROW FOUR:
1.
2.

6. Slowest “Pole Day” Qualifier To Earn a Spot on the “Pole Day” Grid -- 11th Fastest – should be the same as your “Row 4, #2” name - (2 pts.)

7. The Final Driver who gets “Bumped” from 11th Spot on Pole Day (2 pts.)
(He/she will have the 12th fastest 4-lap average on “Pole Day”)

8. Pick Top Dallara Qualifier (2 pts)

9. Pick Top Panoz Qualifier (2 pts)

I'll state the following scenario up-front, based on the updated weather forecast for the weekend, so that there will be no confusion this weekend in case Saturday gets rained out like last year.

If Saturday gets rained out, the IMS will fill 22 spots on Sunday...weather permitting...

If that happens, we will score the Top 11, and the car that is 12th on the grid will get the points for the "Pole Day Bump"....

The "Slowest" would remain as the 11th place on the grid, as noted in the template....it would not be fair all of you to change the parameters of the contest due to weather....

But I will be generous on these two issues, just like I was last year....

I allowed the "Bump" guy (23rd fastest) to earn points, and I also accepted the 22nd car for points....

But I want you to proceed with your picks as if we will have great weather on Saturday, and make your selections accordingly....

Thanks!
