Its only when I realised that the minimum lap time had been raised for the previous meeting (on a long track) that I could solve the problem.
I'd call that one operator error as I hadn't adjusted the settings to the conditions.
Nice one matey, cheers for the back-up on that one

Being a Race director is a horrible thankless task so thumbs up for doing it and its an easy mistake if a venue changes track layouts a lot.

And you can use the audio warnings to let you know of a problem lap.. on BBK you can anyways... bit late once its happened but at least you know it is!
