Jeff, this is a very cool and well-executed idea!  Thanks to you and
whomever else for all the time an trouble.

I'm going to relish my place in the top 100 for a couple of more hours,
anyway!

Off to the Ring to hack down my +27 a bit!

Regards,

Kurt

Enjoying it? I'm LOVING it! <eg> I'm in the top 100 (for now). I really must
put some effort in at Mexico, then get into the minus numbers :-) Thanks to
everyone who's got this up and running!

people. :)

I will pass on the word. All of the work for the site is done by Uwe
Schurkamp, the concept came from Don Scurlock or Randy Riggs (Not sure who
started it all), and the features came to life by just about all the
Screamer members.

Randy Riggs is working on a stand alone app that you will be able to
download and run locally on your machine. Here is a screen shot of it

I'm already movin on up  :-)  Shaved almost a minute off my time so
far (the ring is definitely the way to go but yikes is it a ton of
work).

Eldred, since you've been away this week I've improved significantly.  My
handicap is now +75.31 with a 9:02.09 lap of the Ring.  I guess I no longer
qualify for the slowpokes race :-(  You may of course want to use me as a
ringer in the challenge M Seery made for a slowpokes vs F3 race.  You do
still have a faster time than me at Spa though.  I can only manage 3:25.25
in the Brabham, my new car of choice.

Cheers

Phil
