I agree with Danno. At both TT's there's always the computer guy that wrote code for this program etc. If there was a simple timing system and no lapping meaning guys have to be super honest and accurate about capabilities/speed, this problem wouldn't exist.
The other TT we do is one minute starts BUT random speed/capability so you can have 3 noobs in front of Harry the Hammerhead and let the lapping begin.
I already sent my e-mail thanking them for the race that I never raced in officially.
