Dan, you know the sheet is the "official record" and the board is just a convenience. When there's a discrepancy, the paper sheet takes precedence, not the board.

Now, if we somehow LOST the paper record, or a time didn't get recorded on it, then we could default to the board.

I'm not sure if there are times missing from the set of data that Charles has, or not.

I thought the last two pages were going on & on about the problems with times being lost. . . :shock:

If you are # 37, then I do have a couple.. But only stationary pics. Not too exciting - sorry..

Next time we come out, I will take some action shots. I have a Nikon D70 with a nice 70-300mm lens!

Let me know ahead of time if you want some pics of your car in action!

Perhaps I misunderstood your post, Dan. It seemed like you were saying that the time was wrong because it didn't match what was on the board, which isn't necessarily so. If you meant "7th time was missing" when you said "best time didn't get recorded properly", then... yeah, a photo of the board would be useful to fill in that gap.

I'm stayin' outta this. I'm just the webmaster. Send me results files, I put them on the website... unless Steve's around, then he can do it!

Yeah, my 7th run was the best too and it wasn't posted... I have the pics of the board and it cleary shows 7 runs and the posted results for everyone cleary shows only 6 runs.. Please forward this issue to the appropriate members of FAST!

Native, I'm sure that we can fit you in next time with some action pics!

I can say 100% there are times missing, anyone with 6 runs has a run missing , unless some people didn't do their 7th run.

I know my 7th run in Dan's pic is my fastest as well..

Charles has asked me to take a look and make sure he didn't do anything wrong when entering the times. I realize now that I had set everything for 6 runs max when I made the event file, thinking that somebody knew how to change it and would do so at the event. I guess I should have set it to 8 instead

Sweeeet.

I wouldn't mind seeing the non-action shots you got...

Does anyone know where I can get magnetic numbers?

I forgot - Bill Flowers has a post on DIY magnetic numbers - he said it worked fine:

Yep, they survived 55mph peaks at Brooksville.

But, I wouldn't try and drive on the highway with them!

My 7th time was my best as well.
My car number was #3.
I have found a picture of the time on another website.
The link is below

Why not just set it to 50 or some other high number?

Because it would put 50 run columns in the main listing of entries? That laptop runs slow enough as it is.
