Hello

Well having gone out on a limb for the St Petersburg race, although I enjoyed watching the race on MOTORS TV, I think I'll wait a while as well. Mind you I'm supporting the Rollcentre Pescarolo team so will probably pick them as LMP1 winners.

Congrats Badger! A new sportscar fan is born! :wine:

I'm surprised at the early guesses. I feel content to wait for Thursday practice...

This one is giving me fits as I size it up! :rotate:

I think the predictions should be done before any track action as i think if every one waits to see what practice is like every one will list the same cars.
The idea is to work out who is the best bye precdicting rather than seeing
but thats my opinion any way good luck.

well done badger congratulations best wishes

That's it folks, time's up, good luck to all!

good luck to everyone, this is were this gets interesting now.

and congratulations badger on becoming a dad

#7, #40, #55 and #76 on class poles.

Seems like four got three right: Bentley03, The359, The Real DMN and me

Good luck for tomorrow :)

Thanks for posting the deadline B! :beer:

I really had no clue with this one.

Marky, if you want to change your predictions it's absolutely not a problem. Just post a new set and put a note for jhansen to say that it supercedes your previous post. :)

dont want to change my predictions
but predicting is all to do with knowledge not watching practice then seeing who is quickest then puting them down as pole because it obvious who it will be. i know in the race it can change but for pole atleast i think it should be done before any track action.
then its down to peoples knowledge of sportscar racing.

Well Marky what can I say, the system works well for the Moto GP predictions competition. I think it works well here too, sure its a bit differnt to most of the predictions competitions here on ten-tenths but that doesent mean to say it lacks skill, in some ways it requires more because there is a extra element to the predictions. Do you predict that Oreca will win GT1 for example and get a big haul of points, or arent you so sure and think Oreca and Labre have a even chance? If you choose the latter you have a better chance of winning but you could win less. The rules of this Championship arent any worse or better than any other here on ten-tenths. IMO.

#7, #40, #55 and #76 on class poles.

Seems like four got three right: Bentley03, The359, The Real DMN and me

Good luck for tomorrow :)

I was damn close on my LMP2 guess, had the 2nd place car. :cool:

Actually you got 4/4. :beer:
All times by #40 ASM were deleted by stewards decision. Quali results (http://www.lmes.net/results/monza/lmsent.pdf)

looks like i have 2 out of 4 in qualifying, the LMP1 pole and the GT2 pole, a good base to do well from this weekend although the #50 larbre aston martin DBR9 was rather slow in qualy:hmf:

:gogirl:

so thats 3 out of 4 for me on pole looking good

so thats 3 out of 4 for me on pole looking good
Thats just Jammy Jim

Ouch, after perfect qualifying guesses, only 1 of my 12 race winner guesses was correct...

Well I didn't do very good on either side of it.

Forgive me folks, had a busy weekend. Will catch up on this tomorrow.

Although, to be quite honest, I'm afraid to look... :laugh:

HORNDAWG takes overall honors with 8 points! Jaysalv and skycafe round out the podium. The359 took top honors in the qualifying pick while HORNDAWG took top honors in the class win pick.

Well, what can I say. This was carnage!

Awww, my feeling was right. the LMS-rounds won't mean hell of a lot, as noone scores a lot of points in them.

My LMP1 picks for Valencia will be the Pugs, though ;)

i think every ones will be nodoubt

Very true, this was not a high scoring round. HORNDAWG scored well due to riskier picks. I keep saying I'm going to try that, but when I put my picks down I go the safe route. Oh well.

still a top 3 position for me not to bad whats happened marky ? a man with your knowledge of sportscars must be having a off day :rofl:

god, i thought this was hard, how hard is valencia going to be next with the swiss spirit lola audi and arena zytek:laugh: .

Not to mention, Monza looks nothing like Valencia. Quick pace at Monza does not guarentee quick pace at Valencia. Keeps it interesting! :rotate:

aye, if memory serves me right valencia is a track that is tight and technical and favours the cars with higher downforce like the zytek and courage LC70, so my money is on the arena zytek to win.

i think the courage LC70 should get into the top 3 in qualyfying, i somehow cant see the peugeot's winning at valencia what with the higher centre of gravity a closed car had on a technical track surely wont work in their favour.

Zytek will certainly have a shot at a pole and a podium if the new car is up to the 1000K distance. Should be a good race. And yes, the track is very tight with an arena kind of feel. The spectators can see almost the entire track from the main grandstand.

then i feel a zytek win for sure then, arena feel no pun intended;)

Little over a week to go to Valencia, get those thinking caps on!!

L.P. :cool:
