Sorry for the delay in posting the winners. I have been very busy and it is going to take a little time to figure out the winners. Looks like we had some dipping going on and early logs. I need to be careful how I add the miles to be sure I keep things on an even playing field. I'll add a few more prizes to the race and I am sure everyone will be pleased with the results.

 

Daffy Duck was supposed to fly around the world with Santa on x-mas eve and record the miles on the odometer's of each car. Instead he decided to help Santa deliver toys (Daffy Duck Dolls)to all the children.

 

As soon as I finish recording the results I will send out adoption notices so everyone can change the mission of your racer.

 

To be continued....................... :anicute:

To All,

I will work on the winners totals today. I hope I can figure it out. The dipping of the race car has made it very difficult to total. I worked on it a number of times and had to quit because I was making mistakes. Daffy Duck was no help at all but my daughter said she would help.

It has been difficult determining the winners due to the fact I posted dipping not allowed. With that said, how does one count the correct millage? Do you count the miles on the first cache it was dropped into or the last? Do you count all the miles but not the cache. What I decided to do was count the miles but not the cache drops. Some of the cars were dipped into hundreds of caches. I also decided a driver could only win one prize and that would give more people a chance to win something. I hope everyone is ok with what I have done. I also added a prize for one of the cars that received "0" miles. Here are the results.

 

Most miles traveled:

1st Place #15 Speakers-corners

2nd Place #29 Amigos

3rd Place #11 Six Little Spookies

 

Most Geocachers Logged:

1st Place #37 Sweetlife

2nd Place #32 Love Cachers

3rd Place #18 Trinlzzycar

 

Placed in most Caches:

1st Place #35 Dofferson

2nd Place #34 Krazy-Kajun

3rd Place #31 Ice13-333

 

Door Prize for "0" Miles goes to #3 Bojta
