I'm not sure about this exact situation, but at the Dallas national last year, the final two pairs of super comp in round 2 had to be rerun. This was because the tree dropped and everything was good. No incremental times/final times or rts. All zeroes and no winlight. Very strange deal.

I think we are putting a bit too much trust in the timing equipment itself. At brackets at the Texas Motorplex, there was a flaw in juniors. Every once in a while the dial ins would be correct but the difference in dial ins would be cut in half in the race. (I.e a 7.90-8.70 race, the 7.90 car's tree would drop just .4 seconds after 8.70 car's tree) this happened multiple times throughout the year. Just a weird nuance.

What happened to the "big news" that compulink was supposed to announce after the winters. I guess that's on hold for now. Also, weren't they testing a new beam for the starting line last year at Denver?
