Forum's Pike's Peak Indy 225 "Pick 'Em" Contest

[Tim Northcutt]

Pike’s Peak Indy 225 “Pick ‘em” Contest

DEADLINE FOR PICKS: Friday, Aug. 20, at 5 p.m. (GMT) or approx. 10 a.m. in Colorado…this will be the first practice session

PLEASE Get them in Before the Deadline

--- Pike’s Peak is the next event and it is a 1 mile oval with 10 degree banks….the straights are a little longer than Milwaukee…about as long as Phoenix, but the banks aren’t as high at Pike’s Peak…again, this is a handling track and Horsepower doesn’t seem to be the biggest factor

14.dr. disque -- 1 point

[SevenGrain]

Oh, did I really pick Franchitti as first car out of the race? OOPS...

[Tim Northcutt]

Here are the results from Pike's Peak:

Seven Grain was by far the strongest in the Qualifying selections...

He had Kanaan on the pole and was closest to the top speed posted by Kanaan that was used to deteriming the starting order on saturday, thus he also earned the two bonus points...

He also had Kanaan as the Top Honda Qualifier, 3 of the top six, and AJ IV as the slowest qualifier (I counted AJ IV and/or Matsuura on that one)...

Down F)rce also picked quite well with 5 of the top 6, plus Meira and Herta in the correct spots...he also had the top Toyota Qualifier...Castroneves...

No one had Giafone as the Top Chevy Qualifier

Points after Qualifications:

1. Seven Grain -- 14 pts.
2. Down F0rce -- 9 pts.
3. Marcus -- 8 pts
4. Drewdawg727 -- 7 pts.
5. Tim N. -- 5 pts.
(tie) stmookeyj033 -- 5 pts.
7. Flavinha -- 3 pts.
8. GP Racer -- 2 pts.
(tie) sqw2 -- 2 pts.

On the "Race Picks, we were not exactly stellar...as individuals or as a group....

No one had Franchitti winning the race...

GP racer had 3 of the top 5 but not in the right spots for 3 pts....Seven grain picked Fernandez in the correct spot and also had Kanaan..Drewdawg had Wheldon in the right spot plus Kanaan in his picks to get 3 pts. as well...

No one had Wheldon with the fast lap, and Tim N. was within a tenth of the fastest lap of 169.1

On the Milestones, Franchitti led at all marks but the 150 lap mark, which was led by Hornish...

The only person who had a correct pick was stmookeyj033...Franchitti at Lap 50...

No one had Rcie as the 1st car out....nor did they have Carpenter (20th -11th) or Matsuura (22nd - 13th) as the "Best Movers" and no one had Rice (11th to 22nd) at the "Fall from Grace" pick...

GP racer was closest to the average race speed of 142.182 mph....he missed it by 0.183 mph.

Total Race Pick results:

1. Seven grain -- 17 pts.
2. Down F0rce -- 11 pts.
3. Marcus -- 10 pts.
(tie) Drewdawg727 -- 10 pts.
5. Tim N. -- 9 pts.
