I'm probably his biggest fan, but that is embarrassing. How can he not change it?

I think as soon as various figure makers find out about the timing issue they will correct their figures.

But even without knowing the timing issue, it's hard to look at that field, watch that race, and conclude GOD ran a mediocre race. Without that information I would have broken the race out and assumed something flukey happened.

The GPS knew exactly where you were, the maps were wrong.

Do you know how Trakus works?

I would be willing to bet that Trakus has the correct time.

Yes I was joking. I love Trakus and tracks that have it while watching a race.

Exactly, which is what I had done initially. How anyone could watch that race and give the equivalent of a G3 or so to the winner and a weak allowance figure to the runner up is beyond my comprehension.
