[PascaLM]

Aysedasi and I open the special annual 'bit of fun' Le Mans 24 Hours prediction competition ! New ERS categories choices, many cars improvements, new manufacturer : the competition will be difficult this year.

Past winners :

2008 - cptkablamo
2009 - PascaLM
2010 - isynge
2011 - Joe Taylor
2012 - Duff_44
2014 - Truckosaurus

If you entered over the last 7 years, you'll know what to do - the format remains the same. You are cordially invited to record your answers to the following :

1. Overall pole position – car # and time – to nearest thousandth

e.g.

Toyota #1 - 3:28.919

2. Overall winner, second and third – car #'s and laps completed by the winner only

e.g.

1. Nissan #23 – 385 laps
2. Porsche #17
3. Audi #7

3. First retirement – just the car and #

e.g.

Ferrari #51

In order to establish the overall winner we will apply a similar (and probably even further tweaked) ‘weighting’ system as in the past 7 years.

But there are still some rules.

1. No surplus comments, no funnies, no additions – just your predictions. We will remove anything else that you add !

2. No amendments are permitted unless you can satisfy us that you made a genuine mistake or if one of the cars included in your prediction is withdrawn before race start.

3. Any queries about the competition to myself or Aysedasi by PM please.

4. The competition will close at 9 am on Wednesday 10th June and the thread will be closed too.

N.B. This is just a bit of fun which we do each year and it is not intended to replace or supplant any other regular predictions competition.
