Is anyone else out there giving themselves a ulcer trying to pick 5 winners for this weekend..Who do you go with and in what order.With all the potential out there I'm glad i don't have a broken nose which is hard enough to pick as well..After 2 sleepless nights I'm opting for a hat and cross the fingers.

good luck to all..

I know what you mean. Realistically there are probably 10 drivers ( maybe more ) that could win this weekend.

I don't think it will get any easier either.

At least it should make for very interesting racing

True, but towards the end of last season there were probably 7 drivers on song & now you can probably add Ingall to the list.

Tough choice.

Am entering this for the first time. Is it true that the results are based on the placings in the last race of the weekend? Could be difficult to pick if someone crashes out in the first race or places low.
Just checked out the practice times at Adelaide and the usual suspects of Ambrose and Skaife fill the top 2 places. I read that the new HRT VY is a good car in qualifying but a handful over the race duration. For that reason only, I haven't picked any VY's in my top 5 picks. Picked a few Fords and the tried and proven VX's of Murphy and Bright.

I read that too about the VY's

But underestimate Skaife come race day.

V8SS...I have just signed up too.

Hope I'm better at this than footy tipping in the AFL.....

I just picked 5 names I know like Skaife to finish 1st.

Good luck y'all......:)

Now that the race is over, how long does it usually take for Biante to post the standing, etc.

It depends from round to round.

You've got to remember that the people in charrge of the web forum need a weekend too.

I always have a bit of a look on the Monday after the race & the results are always there.

cheers.:D

Damn had 1st, 4th and 5th until a few laps to the end :(

Are the results updated to include the penalty to Ingall??? Who would have thought Paul Weel would have placed 3rd! Well Done to Team Brock and Weel and Bright in 6th.
Also Radisich in another Yellow Betta Electrical Car all be it in a Ford.

I know what you mean Goldie,

I think I had 1,2 & 3 with 4th until Jr went in the wall & Ingall sized up Murph !!!

I wonder what is the highest individual round points tally scored in the history of finishline.

I see 1st for this round got 117, but I'm sure someone has scored higher.

I wonder what it was ???

cheers.

Had the same myself and ended up with ingall in 3rd but for how long?
All in all a great weekends racing.It is good to see alot of close battles tho perhaps tyres having alot to say about the final outcome.

to all these people at the top of the tipping tree, have you ever thought of using you expert tipping advice at the TAB, you should go alright.

The really frustrating part is when you actually end up equal first, but becasue you got your picks in second, you don't win a prize :(

Oh well, roll on Phillip Island I guess :cool:
