If you have not read through the rules and information thread, please do so, as the format is somewhat unique. Your submission should include your pole prediction for each class along with your pick(s) for each class winner. Reminder: You can pick from one to three cars for your class winning choice. I have no set format for submitting your picks as long as it is easy to follow. A submission for P1 might look like this:

P1
Pole: Audi #2
Win: Audi #1, Peugeot #7, Pescarolo #16

A submission for GT1 might look like this:

Pole: #59 Aston Martin
Win: #72 Corvette

All predictions should be in by 12:00 (Noon) local time Saturday, April 26th. The deadline is 1 hour and 40 minutes prior to qualifying. Good luck to everyone!

Damnit, I'm an idiot, I forgot...

I didn't forget was just too busy getting the team and car set up to log on and enter. Never mind would only have scored a few points anyway.

Must say it was a great race - hope Spa is as good but then Spa is always good.

Sorry guys, had a busy weekend. Will have the results up tonight. Thanks.

Just glancing at the overall standings

Where did you find those please ?

He didn't, he just added them himself I'm guessing. Sorry, it was the end of a crap day, it was late and I was tired. So I didn't get the overall standings up yet. But I will have the points up tonight. Thanks.

The #76 Porsche was excluded from the final classification and the GT2 win was awarded to the #91 Farnbacher Porsche (which was my pick!). How will this affect the results of our competition?

Well :censored: !

I'll have to amend the results. Super...

Did these ever get re-tabulated?


L.P. :cool:

Sorry lads, it's been a bit he**ish for me. I'm working at it as I type this.
