As someone that has spent a lot of time in the control room at national events and knowing Jeff and the system, there is NO manual control going on.

Don't dream of conspiracies - it ain't happening. It works exactly as Grahm said. Once three lights are lit Rick flips the switch when ever he wants. Of course he's got his own rhythm, and as you can see his rhythm varies just a little. I have no idea what the hell he's doing with his arm. Playing a maestro maybe.

No matter - AFTER he flips the switch the computer takes over and that.....
is that. Period.

If the fourth light isn't lit within seven seconds that lane gets redlit.

I was stunned to hear Greg and his owner Mr. Black arguing about this. Simply amazing that seven years after this system was implemented a professional team didn't know the rule. No friggin way I thought.....but.....

Way!
