Many of the J class drivers seem to have run apx 20 seconds slower in the PM, me included. Did something happen to warp time or space? 6 of us in J had this time difference and three of the other drivers had their last 3 PM runs missing. Results list my best AM run @72.9 and my best PM @89.5.

My times are screwy too, I had a run of 74.8 according to the time board and a few others in the mid to high 70's but none are showing, I'm one of those with the last 3 times missing. Still was a great day though and second place in class J for a 30 year old rust bucket can't be bad

Cheers

Mark

Thanks for letting us know. Scott is looking into it. We have a redundant system, so we do have ways to see if there are issues.

I've emailed Scott yesterday.

The correct two-day total times were there for Js at the end of the event, so there should not be a problem recovering them.

Mark, as far as 74 seconds on the display, we had a couple of very odd glitches with display itself on Sunday. It was not updating properly and showing the time of a previous car. Now, this happened rarely in Run Group 1 and I was running the same group 2 as you, so I don't know if there were any more instances of that. I would not trust the display completely, in other words. But PC and paper records are there, so it should not be a problem. Also, the announcer was giving correct time off of the computer, so if you did hear 74, that should be real.

As far as Scruffy goes, the 89.5 is correct - that's his 69.5 plus 10 cones

I was announcing the results when run group 2 was running and I have to say that at least 3 people came and complained about display showing wrong time. I noticed display showing time of previous car during one the AM runs myself ( I was in RG 1). We did check the display and it seemed to work fine though, so I am not sure where the glitch was coming from. There might be a delay or something that can be configured in software perhaps.

Back to run times - I was reading the time off the screen so what you heard is what should be on the record. There were couple of times when information was corrected later on but it had to do with cones reported from corners.
