FYI
Main checks are for common sense
Other such items include:-
ie no laptops on passangers seats (you know who you are)

Battery correctly bolted down

Suffient rubber material round the whirly things on the 4 corners of the car ( note this is only required in the morning) by PM you may choose not have support this rule but remember you have to drive home......

See you all in the morning

Quick Thank you from me
Was good fun yesterday
Great banter and love that it was all friendly and has continued on on the forum afterwards.
One of the reasons we continue with this kind of an event its like your own little Christmas Night out and youll be chatting for weeks about it
Cheers again for a great day

or have half mile times and speeds as well as the mile ?
shout Dougie, can this be done ?

smile
Times is where they messed up before.
So I would just leave it be the way it is
Complicating things will result in worse results so would rather leave it

The other option Dougie is to look at having a few Vboxes which people can use throughout the day? That way you'd capture 0-60, 0-100 and VMAX.
Or there was a few there at the weekend Im sure you lot could swap around yourselves during the free practise in the afternoon ???

It's true we could smile

If that was organized and an appropreiate laptop was onsite to retrieve run data could we have leader boards for 0-60 and 0-100 times etc?
Good idea
Im sure one of our Many Many IT people with Laptop experience on the forum could sort for us.
Trust me you wouldnt want a GM Laptop as we would still be their a year later trying to upload.
