Point taken, in future I will not try to get marshals out before the races start, that is normally the top ten.

I think she does a great job and agree that marshals need to be chased up. Think your comment isn't really fair.

Glad you had a good nights racing "Buggy" thats what we aim for.

With over 70 racers in 8 heats we only have 90secs between races, this means we have to push hard to get the marshalls out. So sometimes we talk over the computer.

Next time come over to race control for 10 mins and I think you will understand what is needed to stop us from over running to much.

I understand the issue, and as Peter said on auto there is very little time between races, and no time seems a good time to tannoy, so perhaps we don't chase at all and it will be up to the racers to get to their marshalling positions before the race starts.

I personally think that DLT did a good job chasing the marshalls up as it seems that some seem to forget the obligation to do it, as it happens in my final I crashed right were a marshall should have been which ended up costing me a lap.
