Contest is for an Aged Sampler of 10 CC (and my collection is getting pretty old at this point.)

PM me 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 my post #7 in attached thread) to each person's selections in each of the races (most correct). Good luck and the deadline is 05/23/13 at 5 PM EST. Thanks

Same rules as last year on the points. See this thread for info. http://www.cigarbid.com/...in-Motor-Sports-Contest

Good luck and good luck to all who enter. fog

And we are off.

Should be a good one. Tires are going to be the story today in Monaco (and the season).
I wish they still did in-race re-fueling. My fav is J. Button but I'm afraid that he just isn't competitive. Oh well.

Anyone watch the Senna Documentary last night? If only he hadn't passed away. What would've happened?

"Monaco Grand Prix 2013: Blackberry and Mercedes-Benz are sitting on the pole."



Sounds like a strip joint advertisement.

Well crap, I slept in, missed race, sounds like it was a good one.... guess that's what happens when you stay up all night drinking.
Oh well, time for the Indy. Thanks again Buckwheat for making a great day of racing even more exciting!

F-N yellow flag. I hate this kind of race finish. Total BS.

I guess good for Tony. I kind of wanted Andretti to win. Oh well.

I can't believe that you picked Carlos Muñoz to finish on the podium. No points for it but he was definitely a dark horse to finish that high up as a rookie. Beer

Nobody got any points for their picks in the 500. It is all going to come down to the CC later today. Three way tie for first with jweod, delta1 & mikeylikesit each have 25 points each for the lead with deadeyedick, illnichaser & shasowcam in a three way tie for second with 18 points each.

As with last year; I may need some help or at least a link to figure out how to award the NASCAR points. They award points for everything. Best of luck to everyone and I'll wait until tomorrow to determine who is the overall winner. Got to make sure that all of the results are "official".

I agree that the way the 500 finished was not the best. horse

If truth be told NASCAR, IndyCar and F1 all are pretty lame when compared with Moto GP, Le Mans & WRC. I also like to watch (not often enough) SCORE International Off-Road Racing (i.e. Baja Races, etc...) and Rally Raid (i.e. Dakar Rally, etc…)
JMO

I like all racing but I've never really been a "car guy". fog

Buckwheat,

Here is a link to the Nascar home page ( RESULTS )

http://www.nascar.com/en_us/sprint-cup-series/standings/results/2013/bojangles-southern-500.html

This one shows the results for the last cup point race. ( Southern 500 ).

You can see the points/bonus points earned by each driver in the grid.

Just check back tomorrow and it will have tonights race results all broken down for you.

I want a recount since the margin of victory between Mikey's 68 points and my 0 points are so close I just want to make sure that the calculations are correct.

Congrats Mikey and great contest Julian.
