Lets see, 4 photo cells plus spares, 4 batterys, wire, new program in computer, all new records for the mile. More book keeping. Just some thoughts and a few dollors more. Have fun Joe.

I tell you, the age of wireless is coming.  USFRA is reported to have done some experimenting with wireless timing systems.  I have my own ideas of how to do it - but am regularly shot down when I broach the subject so I won't bring it up here.  Nonetheless -- at Loring there should be a fine test for the idea brought to fruition -- if only as an experiment.  Ask me for details -- in private.  No, I'm not Franklin in disguise (with my harebrained ideas).

I agree with Bill, the addition to 1 Mile clocks would improve the already great event  :cheers:

Thanks Steve for Moose, I think we'll find a home for him.
On the timing Mile suggestion, we see the value but considering the set up and monitoring, we'll pass on it. We're still new at this, spent a lot of time last year adjusting the one set of lights. Hopefully technology progresses and creates something,likely wireless, to accomplish this option.

Hey Kid Billy,
Records and 200 certs being distributed in person to attendees at Maxton this weekend.
They were just printed, the rest will go out in the mail in the following weeks. Hats not yet done, lots of LTA internal disruptions being sorted out. Teething, whatever you call it, this will be all settled by Race day in July.

Umbrella girls, like in F1, yeah !!!
Just checked out today's results from The Maxton Mile, WOW !!!
Bill Warner went 272, yesterday Mile Reichens' Evo four banger went 237 .
I believe both will attend LTA 2010, among a lot of serious new attendees.
I hope everybody gears up properly this year, we got the traction.
Should be one of the biggest weekends in LSR. for sure.

We're all anticipating a great LTA weekend this year.  Watching the web daily to see when pre-registration opens.

Looks like Red Hot Racing will be present this year along with Team Time Bomb to put the Firecracker through it's paces.

We will be camping and I'd like to hear from those of you that camped last year.
What was it like ?
Be safe, go fast, have FUN !
