Contest is for an Aged Sampler of 10 CC's

Post here the top three finishers for the Grand Prix of Monaco, Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600. The winner will be the one who has all of the 3 race’s winners. In case of a tie I will go with the points awarded (see how I’ve done it before in attached thread) to each person's selections in each of the races (most correct). Good luck and the deadline is 05/27/15 at 5 PM EST. Please post in race order (i.e. Monaco, Indy, Coca-cola and then the top 3 for each race)

Sorry for putting this up so late. I've been busy at the office. Thanks

Looks like rain could snooker the 500 and the CC 600. Slight chance of rain in Monaco on race day (better than on Saturday qualifying). I hope that the 500 and CC600 go off on Sunday and are not pushed back into next week.

Deadline is tomorrow @ 5PM EST. Herfing

No its hot out I don't like to sweat.

But I just realized that Conor Daly is racing in the 500 this year (I think for the first time but maybe I'm wrong). I used to wakeboard with him when he was like 12-14 yo top. He was a really good wakeboarder. Looks like he's a better driver. Guess I should've picked him as winner!

Edit: I was wrong, not his first. I gotta keep in touch with these people =(

Ooops . . . Did not see this post.
My wife was waiting to see the F1 quals before giving me her picks.
Oh well . . . maybe next year we'll get in before the deadline.

Good luck to all, and a very happy and safe Memorial Day Weekend, as well !

I cut it off before the F1 qualifying because picking the top three becomes easier after qualifying. It's going to be an interesting race because they are expecting rain. Everyone have a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend.

Remember what this holiday is all about!!! [salute]

Auspicious start to the day. First time that Monaco GP has had the race start under a safety car. At least they are starting to put dry weather tires on the cars in Monaco. Let's hope that it doesn't rain in Indianapolis or Charlotte today.

Verstappen was making up ground until he crashed, at least I had the winner but not much else in that one. My start to the 500 is looking bad as well.

Great! Americans running 1&2 and they tangle in the pit knocking both out of the running.

Glad to see the rookie win it!

Okay. Sorry for being so tardy in getting the results posted. Here are the totals that I came up with.

As you can see we have a tie for first. So being the asshat that I am. Both Coolbreeze68 & deadeyedick will get 10'ers. All I need is your snailers and a little time to get a second 10'er together.

Thanks for all who played and I hope everyone had fun. I hope I'll be able to do this for many more years to come. fog
