Yeah, first through seventh within 3 laps, that must have been intense!
Posted 03 October 2015 - 08:12 AM
That's about as close as it gets. Must have been a great race.
Congrats Howie and everyone.

The race was terrific, especially with all volunteer marshals.
The round-robin might of taken away a bit from figuring out exactly where everyone was.
Cheater has some corrections to make on what lanes the racer's best time was turned on.

Mike is correct. I rarely see LaneMaster print-outs and just misread the indication of the lane for racers' fastest lap. Fixing now...
