So, who's left? Just these guys?

JimmieGordon2448 - MWR will have at least one driver in the chase.
KingGlamis - Jr finishes higher in the points than Edwards.

NeverNeutral - All four Hendrick drivers make the chase.

And since all of these predictions came true, is the contest OVER?
 
I thought that this runs till finish of Homestead (end of season).

Since it look as though there will be a number of correct picks then I guess that there will be a dance off for the winner to be selected.

I don't think that any of the three can lose,therefore they all won , I guess.
 
I'm still in it - even though a couple of weeks ago I had "not looking good" or "looking less and less likely" by my entry ;)

I believe that if there is more than 1 correct prediction, the game participants vote on which one they feel was the boldest. So, if you want to be the prom king/queen, you'd better be nice.

It ends after Homestead. So far the three mentioned above are the only ones who have made a correct prediction. There are several more that can come true or be eliminated by Homestead. After that last weekend I'll open it up for a vote among the correct predictions. Whichever one we all vote for as the most BOLD of the correct predictions is the winner for 2012.

Last year we had four correct predictions and the results are located here.
 
Hey- DP used Paul Menard and win. That takes some serious "equipment". I'd still be bragging too:)
I felt somewhat reluctant to revel in my dumb luck accomplishment but it is certainly nice to be recognized for my lucky prediction. Thanks to all of the little people out there. It was a guilty pleasure stepping on each and every one of you on my way to the top.
 
It's so refreshing to se such HUMILITY on display!
Thanks, DPK!

I suppose that I should add this: :sarcasm:

:D
 
I'm still in it until at least Texas, if Kasey doesn't have a 3rd win by then I'm done.

JMO, these don't seem very bold at all.
 
I knew I was dead months ago, but of course had to wait until the beginning of the Chase. I guess I'll change my opinion of Kez.

Hey dp, I don't know if this would be ok but I'd like to add this one if it's ok with everyone

Courtney Force in NHRA will win her first race before Danica Patrick gets her first NASCAR win in the Cup or Nationwide series.

I know this doesn't count in this thread but I forgot to bump this last month when it happened to say I was right. :cool:

Correct prediction.

FenderBumper - Brad Keselowski wins 5 or more races.
 
When are you going to update this?

Even though I predicted 5, I had a feeling at the start of the year Kez would win 7. I sure hope this is one damn 'feeling' I get right this year.

I was waiting until after this weekend. My prediction should be null & void after this week and many others will or have been eliminated. Don't worry, you're sitting pretty good with your prediction.

OK. I'm a little nervous after all the election shenanigans this week. I hope there won't be any campaign posters, drunken redneck gangs or black panthers at the polling stations when we decide the winner. ;)
