Example: I ran BLUE m5 and won by 3-4 car lengths and on my slip it said trap speed on my car was 139 where as on the m5 150
Then I was told that 150 trap was actually mine because they are having problems with equipment and everything is messed up BUT on that same run my vbox was showing 146 trap speed. I think that I should trust vbox...

In addition, not every race started at 60mph so its kinda unfair to say that one car was faster than the other one...IMHO
I can tell you the timing system was working flawless after lunch and all the times posted and mph are the best for each car. I know in the morning we were having issues with the timing but we got that ironed out. The few ways you get the wrong reading would be 1. people switched lanes after staging 2. people just going full out as soon as the flagger waved the green flag 3. some people starting at different speeds either slower or faster. As for vbox, vbox records maximum speed vs the speed trap, so when you accelerated through the cones as told to, vbox would record a higher speed than at the actual finish line. We are currently working on a way to make sure everyone has the same start speed ,which should be in the works for our Oct. Event.

What car did you have?
