My local track will allow dial in changes on reruns,and if there`s a delay or downtime longer than 5 minutes you can change your dial in. Even if you are the pair on the starting line.

And it was a rerun.

Yeah, that's a bad deal, but if you saw your competitor dial up .08, wouldn't you dial up also?

Who had to change converters and didn't get a time run, Ed or the other guy or both? If they didn't give out time slips, he could have just asked his crew or anybody that saw it what he ran, right? It's a very unfortunate situation, but I don't see how it could have been handled any differently.

Learn something everyday and mr collins is as fair as they come.

I had a rerun at the Gainesville Points race a couple weeks ago and they let both of us redial. It's in the books! I guess Div.1 needs to get with the program. Jim
