The others will have to agree to do it as well, bruce, or your previous picks will have to stand...
It wouldn't be fair to give one or two people the chance to change their picks after the deadline...If all of the oters come in, OK...otherwise, your picks up front will be the ones I'll score. |

No one else responded before quals started.
Sorry about not having you in, Flyin' Ryan, but with helio inthe mix in your picks, plus missing the deadline, I can't let you in this weekend... Bruce...I'm using your previous picks, because no one else culd pick Helio due to the trial...sorry about that, but the playing field has to be level for all to keep the integrity of the contest... |

I have a rather nasty feeling that I've done really badly this race...

Hey Tim. I missed this race, unfortunately, because i was super busy last week and honestly just forgot to sign on to 10/10ths.
But GL to all! I will be back for Kansas (will make picks right now) |

Season Totals After 2 of 17 Races:
1. drdisque - 33 pts. - 1 win 2. OpenWheel - 32 pts. - 1 win 3. Peno - 27 pts. 4. Alwaysfirst - 25 pts. 5. NAC - 23 pts. (tie) Inin0 - 23 pts. 7. Bruce (BJ) - 19 pts. 8. Flyin' Ryan - 15 pts. 9. drewdawg - 7 pts. (tie) RichardRenes - 7 pts. (tie) Boom Boom - 7 pts. Forum Contest Winners: St. Pete - drdisque Long Beach - OpenWheel BTW, Flyin'Ryan...You would've earned another 13 pts. and would've been in third... You've got to admit, it wouldn't have been fair to allow picks beyond what others had done to compete within the rules, but if they would've agreed to re-pick, I would've done it.... but you are still very much in the hunt, because there are a lot of races left...keep playing...you actually pick quite well, and I do separate "Pole Day" and Race Day" contests for the Indy 500 so that gives you yet another round to get back up where you should be, and I give people up until the morning of Pole day and the Morning of Race day to pick those, so you do have practice data to draw from for them.... That will let you rack up big points in May, if you follow the charts leading up to each event....an 18 pt. gap can evaporate in May, if you play it right...

Opps did not see it was 85 laps and picked Dario for that, oh well I'll take what I can get, including the two times.
Well done OpenWheel |
