auto timer on Wednesdays?
 
I know I'm an ex banker and getting old, but has anyone got the calculator out to see how long 5 and 6 heats doing 3 qualifiers and 1 final each at 5 minutes, with 3 minute interludes would take?
If we continue to start at 8pm, what time will we finish?
Answers please. I know, but I wonder if you do!!
Good idea though.

Right ive just bothered to sit and work this out, for 5 heats with 3 minute interludes it would take 2 hours and 44 minutes (i think) and that is including a ten minute break inbetween the three qualifiers and one final (not sure if needed),

So if we start at 8pm we will finish about quarter to eleven, which is about the time we finish now if im right :D

im confused why would we need 3 mins between heats 1min 30 should be plenty of time to step off rostrum take transponder out and go to marshal point.

Think you'll find it's more like 10.15 when racing finishes Will.

We do have to consider the younger ones in this equation too. I agree it would be nice perhaps to change the format and run finals, but in doing so it means those that have to leave early will miss out entirely. At the moment at least if they get 2 runs they stand a good chance of a good points tally.

Unless of course it's possible to run heats and finals, but the league points are based on qualifying, and the finals are run purely for fun?

It may be viable if we can get underway earlier perhaps.
