If you beat someone every race they cannot beat you for the averages how can they gain back the time behind you if they never beat you. I have been secretary of clubs and do not see how this can be correct

Hi Guys, The following is a brief comparison of the point in question. Nowhere as good as my previous example, but it will prove some of you wrong. Figures don't lie.

 

                   Distance.     60ths yd        Flying Time     secs    vel                            

 

Smith            100 miles   10560000        4.00.00      14400   733.33

Jones            110 miles   11616000        4.24.20      15860   732.40

 

Smith            200 miles   21120000        6.00.00      21600   977.77

Jones            210 miles   22176000        6.18.30      22710   976.48

 

Smith            300 miles   31680000       15.00.00     54000   586.66

Jones            310 miles   32736000       15.31.00     55860   586.03

 

Smith            400 miles   42240000       21.00.00     75600   558.73

Jones            410 miles   43296000       21.34.00     77640   557.65

 

 

                                      Total Figures

 

Smith            1000 miles  10560000       46.00.00    165600  637.68

Jones            1040 miles  10982400       47.47.20    172040  638.36

 

 

MR SMITH HAS 4 FIRSTS AND DOESN'T WIN THE AVERAGES. ;D ;) Vic.

You figure it all wrong, the average speed award is for the average speed from the total of the Speed raced that day added to the other days and divided by the number of races not distance and time on the wing sum average.

 

Smith had a total  of 2856.49  for 4 races or 714.1225 YPM

Jones had a total  of 2852.56  for 4 races or 713.14 YPM

              NO ITS NOT. VIC HAS GOT IT SPOT ON.....

Sorry Guys,

               In the Total Figures below, 17240 should read l7270, and changes velocity

to 638.25. I was falling asleep last night when I done it.  :B Vic.

Truth is stranger than fiction ... Total distances of miles and time taken may put Vic right, as I know a few scenarios in Maths that defy logic. On this one the court is out as I haven't the basic knowledge - Ashamedly- as to how the system works.

John,

       I agree with you.

BUT it is possible, and that substantiates my original statement. It also shows a slight flaw in our method of calculating averages. ;) Vic.

RULE 8.     RACE RULES SHU.     [contstitution and rules]

in arriving at the best average velocity, theTOTAL DISTANCE flown and the TOTAL TIME occupied by each competitors first bird,, in  each  race to be taken and the average velocity calculated from" SUCH TIME AND DISTANCE"

 

so vics, mr smiths TOTAL DISTANCE was 1000 miles which is 10560000 60ths yd  mr smiths TOTAL TIME was 46,00, 00 which is 165600 secs ,so the velocity calculated from" SUCH TIME AND DISTANCE"is 637.68.

 

mr jones,s TOTAL DISTANCE was 1040 miles which is 10982400 60th yd,    mr jones TOTAL TIME was 47.47.20 which is 17270 secs. so the velocity calculated from" SUCH TIME AND DISTANCE" is 638.25

 

so mr smith has 4 firsts and doesnt win the averages :) :) :)    very strange indeed , but according to these rules, correct  :o :o :o ;D

HI VIC,SORRY FOR THE DELAY WITH MY ANSWEAR TO  THIS BUT NOT HAD TIME TO CHECK THE FIGURES UNTIL NOW,I HOLD MY HANDS UP MATE I THOUGHT THAT YOU MUST BE TALKING RUBBISH IN THE BEGINNING BUT YOU ARE RIGHT IN WHAT YOU STATED,MR.SMITH WON ALL THE RACES BUT DIDN,T WIN THE AVERAGES,I ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS WOULD NOT HAVE THOUGHT IT POSSIBLE,FARE PLAY TO YOU FOR PUTTING THE FIGURES UP AND SHOWING US ALL TO BE WRONG.

P.S. I TO USED TO USE A SWIZZLE STICK OTHERS MAY NO IT AS A VARIATION SLIDE RULE OURS COST £3.17.6d INCLUDING POSTAGE FROM THE RACING PIGEON 19 DOUGHTY ST.LONDON.
