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 up 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 may look like this:
P1
Pole: Audi #1
Winner: Audi #1, Audi #2
OR
GT2
Pole: Ferrari #31
Winner: Ferrari #62, Porsche #45, Panoz #21
All predictions should be in by 5:00pm (1700) local time (EST) Friday, July 20th. This is 30 minutes prior to qualifying. Reminder, this race is on Saturday. Good luck to everyone!
Note: I will be gone at the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix that weekend and will not be around to take any questions. Bentley03 has agreed to monitor this thread and answer any questions if needed. Thanks.
jhansen 11 Jul 2007, 23:12 Skycafe is traveling abroad and has asked me to post his picks. While I seriously thought about accidentally deleting his pm I thought our championship leader deserved a bit better. However, who's to say that I didn't change his picks?! :innocent:

We have a two-way tie for the win between SALEEN S7R and Mingaling! SALEEN S7R and Mingaling took top honors in the qualifying pick while five competitors took top honors in the class win pick.
Well done everyone!
Sorry for the delay guys, just now getting back up to speed.
Speed-King 30 Jul 2007, 18:19 @jhansen: I'm not sure if I can keep my qualy points. Due to a problem with my internet connection I wasn't able to pick until the race day. I didn't look at the qualy results and picked blind and I think that shows in scoring only two points in qualy.
Yet, I realize that you can't know for sure that I tell the truth here.
It's up to you if you let me keep those points.
Oh, and congratulations to Saleen S7R and Mingaling.

Unfortunately, I am going to have exclude your picks from this round. All picks must be in by the deadline. Appologies, but that is the way the rules are set up. I missed a round myself because I missed the deadline.
Sorry for missing that everyone. Didn't catch it. I will ammend the points tonight.
Edit: I should also thank you Speed-King. That was very honorable to mention that.
skycafe 31 Jul 2007, 02:33 Edit: I should also thank you Speed-King. That was very honorable to mention that.
Having returned to real life from the Central American jungles, and sadly real life has a great deal of dishonesty in my work place, I for one applaud Speed-Kings honesty, and if this issue was put to a vote I would be inclined to believe the internet connection issue and give a pass on this one, saying that Speed-King picked as blindly as the rest of us.

mingaling 1 Aug 2007, 06:34 I was banking on Enge's probation in which all he had to do was lightly swap paint with any one of the many drivers out on the course. (Although I do feel he is a good driver in his own right) And thanks to a failed inspection for the corvette. Plus a blind guess on the right Penske (nail bitting cause they kept battling till the last lap) one could say the whole race was fixed for my fantasy betting habit... lol :p Just playing around as I'll probably never have this good a pick again.
