if i win, all goes to charity.

[ANDY400R]

(and ANDY400R are also taking part but I don't know their guesses yet.)


Supraman my guess is a 1min19.9
Thanks

[Fuggles]

From my reckoning we're at £150. Which means about £60 goes to charity. I'm sure we could do better than that

C'mon folks. The lap might be shown on tomorrow's episode. Time is running out. Remember that we now have two separate lists for different weather conditions.

ANDY400R has guessed 1.19.9. I'm still waiting for matlyp to confirm his guess.

To be honest, I asked the Nissan representatives at Goodwood whether they knew if the car would be setting a lap time on Sunday. They were aware that the bullet train race was happening tomorrow but speculated that the lap time might be getting set later in the series. Perhaps this explains the rumours that the GT-R will also be appearing on next week's episode?

We've now had:

33 regular guesses (33 x £5) = £165
10 additional contributions to the charity (10 x £5) = £50

So, the prize fund is as follows:

£66 to the winner
£33 to the runner-up
£16.50 to 3rd-place
£49.50 + £50 = £99.50 to charity

Well pay your fiver, and I might consider it!

[James Buckley]

done, cheque's in the post.

[Fuggles]

Rather than answering a poll with "yes please I want to know" why not help support a worthwhile cause and raise money for children with cancer?

[Hi5]

i dont think you can accept any more entries as the track time is now known on other forums... blatently obvious someone in the list above knows it too...

The only person that knows the time is me-the time you have seen Adam is wrong.
As the forum are trying to earn money for charity, I think as John has stated it would be better to place a small bet.

[Hi5]

you arent the only person that knows the time treg, was a studio full of people who know :P but glad the time you posted is wrong, if it is

Lol. Yes but there were only 2 Skyline owners there, that cared about the result!!

Mr Fuggles pm coming your way now!!

[GT-Racer]

Was it a dry track? That's all most people want to know.

[supraman]

Disappointingly, there hasn't been any activity on the sweepstake since last Monday, so TREG and I have decided to turn his lap time knowledge to the sick kids advantage!

If you donate £5 to the charity by following the original link http://www.gtr.co.uk/products-52-toV..._top_gear.html (ignore the text, there is no need to guess anymore) then we will PM you the time. Obviously this will only work if nobody posts the time anywhere else.

Since we know for a fact that the lap time will be revealed this Sunday, some of you may want to take this last opportunity to donate to the charity without learning the time. In this case, click the link above but, during the ordering process, add something to your name that makes it obvious you don't want to know the time (e.g. Joe (if you tell me the time, I'll sneak round in the night and swap your R35 for a ZR1) Bloggs.

In either case, if you still want to guess the laptime then go ahead and I will add you to the list. However, I'm afraid it won't count because, even if you did actually guess correctly, nobody would believe you.

Please note that 100% of all money paid from this point forward will go to the charity and will not be included in the sweepstake prize fund.
