Alrighty!
So with the great race just a few days away from starting, it is time to start what I hope will be an annual event on the Screwed Gamers/CANZ calendar! The ultimate Bathurst Prediction Competition. Everyone who wishes to participate, will make their predictions on a variety of areas revolving around the Bathurst 1000 this coming weekend. You will earn points for getting predictions correct, in some cases they may be worth more points than others. And just to add some reward for effort, the winner will be awarded the ability to shape one of the 2016 CANZ series. We are yet to announce exactly what choices and influence the winner will have, but will hope to finalise this by Thursday!
In the event of the winner being someone who is not taking part in the CANZ racing in 2016, the prize will go to the highest placed person who is - but obviously the official winner will be crowned the King of Bathurst!
Now a couple of rules:
QUALIFYING & PRACTICE:
Pole position (3p):
Last place (5p):
Fastest lap time in practice across all sessions (2p):
RACE:
What lap will the first safety car appear on (not including a start under the safety car) (4p):
Who will be involved in the first crash (can be a single car crash) (5p):
How many Safety Cars will occur across the whole race (5p):
Who will set the fastest lap of the race (3p):
How long will the race run for (hours and minutes) (3p):
Who will be the first to retire from the race (3p):
How many DNF's will there be (4p):
Which team (ie FPR, Red Bull, Tekno) will be the first to stuff up a pit stop, includes driver stalling the car (6p):
How many laps will the "all girls" team last (5p):
How many ad breaks will there be in the Free-to-air coverage (from the start of the race, to completion of the final lap) - (3p):
Will the SuperBlack entry achieve a better result than last year? (1p): Yes/No
Who will win (5p):
Podium positions (name the three teams on the podium in order - must be exact) (10p):
Any more just post below!

Now a couple of rules:
- All predictions must be placed between Wednesday 11:30pm EDST and Thursday 11:59pm EDST, at which point the thread will be locked.
- Between now and Wednesday 11pm EDST, we have the ability to add more prediction areas in case you think of something I haven't. Hence why no one can submit predictions until 11:30pm tomorrow night. All suggestions will be removed from the thread to keep it clean and easy for myself to check back through after Sunday evening.
- In some cases points will be awarded to the person(s) whose prediction is closest - e.g. if the first safety car comes out on lap 10 and no one predicts this correctly, the next closest prediction will get the points.
