Gateway Pick 5 Results!!

[rev-ed]

Just as I was readying to call the local lumberyard for an extra-large podium, one poster came in with such an impressive outing I scrapped the whole podium idea.

Congratualtions to 2fast4u for ripping down a 12 point race! 2fast had all 5 positions correct (though not in the right order), plus one for the pole winner. Following 2fast4u were a whole bunch of people who rode the Penske gravy train. I considered posting results after erasing all points earned off deFerran and Castroneves, but soon realized I had little to count!

Anyway, the results:

2fast4u - 12

As always, any appeals may be made to me via PM, email or on this thread. Season standings still to come. Next race picks thread up in just over a week!

I'm never posting my picks first again.

That has to be the smallest doughnut squad ever. The pickers are losing their creativity it seems. What kind of strategy is there in having the top 5 in points as your Pick 5.

[IndyIRLman]

Have I caught up with that pesky 4aljrfan yet? I've been drafting that guy for weeks. But I just can't seem to make the pass. :mad:

[damilt]

Boy, I'm just swimming in points! NOT!!!

[rev-ed]

[IndyJim]

how about for the last two weeks you can't pick anyone in the top 5 in points? Let the guy who picks Mack in 5th have a chance to mop up!

[IndyIRLman]

Excuse me Mr. Rev of the Ed. How about total points.

[stan]

Ok I can't do it I just got to pick non winners and take my chances. I think were all losing respect for those who are leading the points, get some nuts pick a nobody once.

To not pick the Penske drivers on a handling track would be pretty darn , well uh,

I picked the wrong Penske entrant!
