No time slips at Indy points meet.

We were informed about this in an email we all received yesterday. The info must be accessed on the live timing link provided in email. This will be a challenging endeavor. If I had known this I may have skipped this event. It will be interesting to see if this will be the case for the pro classes.

Yeah... not a fan of this.

The link from d3 doesn’t show me how to get live timing

mike wharram · 08-06-2020, 07:35 AM

I’m just happy to be here racing !

In the past live timing has not been very reliable. Hope it works out. No reason to not give time slips. It can be done and keep distance.

Larry Hill reports in their "Live" thread that they are passing out time slips.

Yes they are passing out time slips to my pleasant surprise

Not today, no time slips. You had to have your phone
With you to see if you won. Then go over the scale.
They could have had someone at the time slip shack
To give you a thumb up or down.

No time slip was a hassle for me. Just trying to log my
Run data. If you missed the live data before it rolled off
The bottom it was another 30 minutes before it showed up
Under detail run

I not a fan of this

Not a Fan of the No time slips, however if NHRA/LORP is going to do this they need to come up with an phone app like World Wide Technology Dragway uses (St Louis). I ran the NMCA race last week and their phone app worked flawless and was immediately available after the run.

That being said I would still prefer paper timeslips.

ATT...NHRA, please stop CONTRIBUTING to the madness....ONE employee, ONE mask, ONE set of latex gloves....and hand us OUR time slips. I believe we DESERVE that. Time slips were handed to racers on Thursday and Friday. .Is the time slip interaction more DANGEROUS than the group of stocker racers huddled around the Q sheets and ladder pairings on the trailer ? ..........#TIMESLIPSMATTER............
