Title: OFFICIAL - Tenth Annual Rest Home Daytona Pool
Post by: Johnny B on February 17, 2007, 05:39:11 PM
PICK THE TOP FIVE FINISHERS IN
EITHER THE 2007 DAYTONA 200
OR THE DAYTONA SUPERBIKE RACE
-------------------------------------------------
March is only a few weeks away. I won't post any lists of factory riders
this year. You are on your own to figure out who is entering.
So you can do one of three things:
1.) List your picks for the top five finishers for the Daytona 200 FX race,
2.) List your picks for the top five finishers for the Daytona Superbike
race, or
3.) List your picks for the top five finishers in BOTH races.
Bear with me, this is all very unscientific.

Send your picks to me at the Rest Home (resthome@mindspring.com ) or post them where you read this. Entries close at 6:00 PM Tuesday, March 6th.

1998 winner - Laura Perry
1999 winner - Kenny Rodrigues
2000 winner - John Mahlendorf
2001 winner - Chris Mullen
2002 winner - "d_alexand" (WERA BBS)
2003 winner - Paul Luevano
2004 winner - guerrilla
2005 winners - Nathan Church, Superbike - Jay Barfield, FX
2006 Winners - Rodger Doyle, Superbike - Chuck Forquer, FX

Contest Winners Announced!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Between the alleged defective fuel system vents and the Dunpop tires blowing chunks all over the place, the actual results at Daytona were a far cry from the predictions put forth. I dreaded looking at the entries, but the only good thing was that there were very few of them this year. I don't know if it was general apathy, confusion as to the entries, or my waiting until two weeks to announce the pool. Hopefully next year will be better.

I was almost tempted to say that everybody's predictions were out to lunch and declare no winners this year, but that wouldn't be right, especially for the Tenth Annual Pool. I also tossed the deadline out the window to help me out a little. With no explanation forthcoming, the 2007 winners are:

Jay Barfield - Superbike

Laura Perry - FX

Congratulations to both of you! I'll be contacting you both to arrange for delivery of your prizes.

Note that both Laura and Jay are now two-time pool winners!
