Race control goes "Automatic" from November 7th 2011

[Legacy555]

Hi all,

We had an issue on Sunday that caused some problems for some racers.
Racing started late, then caught up on time, and then ran late again as race control relaxed.

So, we are going to try and run meetings from now on "Automatic".
This means that the computer will run racing to the clock.

We will pilot the following timetable, and modify it as the committee sees fit.

Heat 1, Round 1 will start at 11.30am - this will be 2wd Clubman
There will be 5 minutes from the finish signal in any heat to the start of the next one.
There will be 20 minutes from the end of the last heat in the round to the first heat of the next round.
There will be 20 minutes from the last heat in round 4 to the start of the finals.

If yesterday's meeting had have been run on automatic it would have panned out like this.

Practice 1030hrs
Round 1 1130hrs
Round 2 1240hrs
Round 3 1350hrs
Round 4 1500hrs
Finals 1600hrs
Event over at 1650 hours.

I think everyone would be happy enough with this.
