the reason  is for security should the bird  lose one on route

and  you cant time it in, the second security is  if the bird  dose do a  fast time then,  they can ask for the second rubber to be produced  to  check,  the bird is home and in your shed

the reason for double rubbers in lon races was a back up put int a second clock in the event of a problem with your first clock stopping etc. many set two clocks for natinal racing for that very reason

how do you get on using ets cos under rpra rules only 1 clock can be used a second clock can only be used in the event of clock 1 failing .

i should also have said that if your first clock was ok at checking they never opened the second clock. the drill was red rubber into first clock snd blue rubber in second clock.  you also to mark your main clock as 1st clock
