Guest IB Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 If I understand your question right, you think it is a separate addition / calculation - it's not. Your velocity is worked out the very same as clubs other members, distance / time on the wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John k Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Thanxs for the replies guys but i am still none of the wiser, Let me give u a example Race point yesterday was Whitley Bay, Whitley bay to my loft is 146.0293 miles..

Guest spin cycle Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 My time on wing was 2.56.58Competitor's time was 2.52.26 Many thanxs...... basically he timed in just enough of you 4 1/2 mins....if he'd been only 4 mins in front you would have probably beaten him. i'm a short flyer.... yesterday i timed in 2 mins ahead of the winner and 5 mins ahead of 2nd and 3rd....i finished 4 th. most weeks you have the advantage so weldone to your man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest spin cycle Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Many thanxs for explaining i roughly have 4 mins to play with then. Much appreciated...... at 60 mph (1760ypm) you have 4 mins....but at 30 mph (880ypm) you have 8 mins. at 45 mph (1320 ypm) you will have 1 1/2 mins/mile or six minutes. my (very) rough estimate is that he only beat you by seconds and that clock variation went his way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
