2008 Forum Pick 'Em Contest - Indy Pole Day

[Tim Northcutt]

2008 Indy 500 “Pole Day” Pick ‘em Contest
May 10, 2008

DEADLINE: Saturday, May 10, 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.

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 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”)

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If Saturday gets rained out, we will use these same picks for the Day Two session.

The Top 11 will be counted as normal.

The "Bump Pick" will be the 12th car on the grid.

If BOTH Saturday AND Sunday are washed out, WE WILL DO A NEW CONTEST for the Following Weekend, Just like we did in 2006!!!

Watch the weather and the results, and if disaster strikes again for the first two days, the contest will be very different than this one.

Good Luck!!!
