Was it the I-Laps system or something similar?
How high were the sensors positioned in relation to the track? The guys from I-Laps say the sensors should be approx 20-24in's above the race track for them to work properly.
Have to admit that all the testing I've done so far at home shows that there is no problem in the sensors picking up the PT under my bodyshell, even when I hid the PT under the back of the car where it's painted royal blue. It picked it up everytime. Of course we shall suggest to all racers to have it visible through the windscreen which should be no problem for everyone.
