No doubt MrF will be along to allocate the points and Zedhead260Z will be checking to see if anything today alters the hall of fame.

Once again guys.... BIG UP.. for helping me out on the times.

Well, Steve Sinclair's time certainly does and lands him as 10th fastest ever (just behind Dean Bottriel). Well done that man (does he come on here ?? ) - go buy yourself some slicks, you're Super-Mod' so you might as well.

I'll make HoF / Top 10 ammendments as soon as it has all been verified.

Steves 12.8 is verified. I saw the ticket.
The problem was that not all runs got tickets printed!!!!!(DONT ASK)
The organizers assured us however that all times were captured!!! LOL

Could the competitors please confirm their race numbers / York classes given on the day so I can make some sense of the York results service!

Just to note from the York times - Steve Sinclair ran 12.814 @ 113.56 mph

It is important we collect times to 3 decimal places (2 places for mph)

Thanks.
