Mad mackem just to give you some idea of the information gathered. Say the meeting I ran in Melbourne for TCS with 140 entries, I was using the same version of the program I am using now. The size of the meeting was about 10mg the log files 1 gig. a club meeting at Castle Hill would be 1-2 mg the log file would be 35-50 mg so you can see if a program does happen Ken can trace were it is and if it is Alyact or something else.

If you wish I can show you tonight when you come down to racing.
An example of a operating system failure was about 2 years ago, I had just bought a brand new computer put windows 98 on it and loaded Alycat 8.3 on and I had problems with missed laps. It took 3 months and alot of hair to work out that it was the operating system that caused it. I changed to xp and the problem was fixed.
But I do agree that if we are going to run meeting like we have been with international driver coming the association or the promoter should look at making sure that not just the track and organizer can hold it but the lap-scoring system as well
