Honestly I thought this was due, but I have mixed feelings since I drew my own conclusions with the synth numbers. This in my opinion gives the novice speed handicapper an easy way out, whereas for myself and others that take the time to watch video and make educated guesses, harder to gain an advantage, I don't know if that makes sense but the best illustration is I thought The Pampelmousse's number was low to begin with and now the rest of the world knows...and seemingly agrees.

Are you two finished yet?

Perhaps you guys never got the memo, but ...

One half year ago the proudest boast was 'At least I'm not Morty'. Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is Ich bin ein Douchebag.

Nice Avatar.

You should hook up Pat Day as his Jock agent...You could hand out Track Chaplain bulletins while booking his mounts.

Does a poly number mean anything if track temp is not part of the equation?

Beyer is admitting that the assumptions upon which he previously relied in making speed figures for synthetic races were flawed. Why should we think that the new assumptions are any more accurate. He staes that he is essentially tweaking the figures to fit the following conclusory proposition:

"But the general rule is: The fastest races produce higher figures, the slowest races produce lower figures."

In many respects, it appears that Beyer is now treating synthetic races in much the same way that he has treated turf races. And my sense about their turf figures is that, given the manner in which those races are run, the turf figures rarely deviate significantly from the pars for a given class. With the above statement, is that what we are likely to get from Beyer figures for synthetic races? If so, why not just assign a class rating for non-dirt races and don't worry about calculating a "speed" figure.
