Main Event - Pick Your Winners

[quarterpounder]

Branching off from the other thread which has gone the same way as many others I thought i'd get the ball rolling.

TF - Andy Carter
TAD - Rob Turner
TAFC - Dan Larsen
PM - Mikael Landahl
PS - Jimmy Alund
TF/B - Peter Svensson
ST - Per Bengtsson
PS/B - Ulf Ogge

If the weather sticks then i'd be happy seeing TF low et in the region of low .70's, the possibility of pro mods getting into the .00's(?) and some fantastic close racing in all classes

I wont tempt fate but i'd love to see the aafc's getting down to the teen's or *gulp* zero's.


Can't wait !

of corse anything can happen but andy has to be favourate considering theres only 6. if he qualifies 1st ( as he usually does ) then he will have only 1 race to the final.

most of the other classes are open

and andy to run another 4.6
john spuffard to run a 4
and pro mods to run 6.00 maybe 5 :O

[trackday addict]

project GTST to run quicker than 7.56 & take the record from the kiwis where it has sat for the last 5 years :-)

Hmm... Three of those picks not on the published entry list. Why has nobody (other than the OP) chosen their pick in PSB (or PSM if you like)?

According to a news item I just got but can't post until this evening (because I am operating solo at Santa Pod today) it is perfectly OK to pick Urs for the Main Event

Whoooo and quite literally Hooooo!

(I can claim no prior knowledge on this one, just a hunch based on forensic study)

One hunch down, just two more to go.......

[Tet]

TF - Micke Kågered
TMD - Dave Wilson
TMFS - Leif Andréasson
AAFC - John Spuffard
PRO - Richard Sundblom
PM - Robert Joosten
TFB - Peter Svensson
ST - Roel Koedam
PSB - Anders Abrahamsson

The smart money would be on either Andy or Urs for the TF win. But I'm hoping Micke's put the worst of his woes from the last few years behind him, and can make a good showing here.

One for the trivia buffs. Has an A-Fuel car ever won an F.I.A. TMD round? I think not, and with 4 entered this event, will that barrier be broken?

Sadly the message I just got from the man himself says not!!!

After qualifying the Gold RV A Fueler, nos 1 last year we also won first round against Dave, then rain stopped play but I am sure your pick for TMD Krister has gone rounds also, but I don't think an A Fueler has won an FIA event yet?

or is that what you meant ?

Sorry Derek, I meant to say event. Those who know me well will know that I consider Krister to be a minor diety in European Drag Racing.

Minor? I thought you always called Krister "God"...

Those who have picked Ulf Leanders can breathe easier

Yes it comes to something when a racer's own PR guy puts out incorrect releases doesn't it. Now you know why I prefer it when the racers write their news items themselves

[MotorPsycho]

good news about Ulf Leanders, I was wondering about his absense from the entry list

also JonC, 4 a-fuellers? Krister, Derek, Dave, whos the 4th
