There's more of a threat for a car # entered into a computer, straight to the winner circle, than there is a corrupt individual.

All you gotta do is read the news to comprehend authorities are behind most corruption. So called Trusted officials.

I raced with all kinds of people from the time they predominantly raced local, to those who also expanded their efforts to racing out of town, and or both out of town and local. Seven people who raced Sunshine won the Million. None were cheating.

There's always rumors of cheating. If there are people cheating, they're doing an awfully poor job of it in Florida. The people who win all the races here, don't cheat.

So where's the protection in the softwear from Brockmeyer, against a car number entered into a computer which goes straight to the winner circle? That's a more credible threat.... preference for outcomes. Favors.

I race footbrake at weekly bracket races. No desire to run a delay box, no desire to ever race "big money" races. I don't have a dog in this fight. It's just curious how many are bashing and naysaying the OP for trying to do something. Then the same naysayers bash the lack of tech, etc, etc. Then come in here and hate on people who are at least doing SOMETHING. Must be miserable to go through life like that.

If there are individuals cheating, they're doing a horrible job of it.

I told ya where the real threat is, and the people saying they'll do this or that, already had their chance, and didn't.

The real threat is tilting the table, favors.

The threat isn't some dork with a light sensor.

After the last three years we've all experienced, everyone should understand by now, the real threat comes from behind closed doors.

If you realize they can now produce a self driving car a self driving semi a self flying plane.you’ve got to believe the technology to produce a simple device to sense a light and send a signal to a trans break is child’s play

i am with some here. if some people are using such tree sensing tools who are they and what races did they win using it. if this is such a wide spread problem that compulink has created a fix then surly somebody out there knows who is using it. the dirty dozen names were told so why not the tree sensing people outed if it is such a problem.

i would say somebody can cheat with a grid much easier than tree sensing devices.

ep-

I figure the best way to keep from being cheated is to be .000 and dead low every run, and let them try to get inside it.

goob- the only thing stopping me, is me.

i am not sure i have seen anybody be .00 every round for ten rounds in eliminations for the W

ep-even the best will miss it and get lucky a round or two in a ten round race

i was .00 6 rounds in a row one time then turned loose my normal 20

That's a good reasonable explanation for Brockmeyer getting out in front of it.

Turk, that's not a bad idea. But there is a certain wavelength of light produced by every color and they are all specific to the color. There are sensors out there can detect specific wavelength of light (as in specific color). SO if someone has one of these tree-readers with a sensor that only detects "yellow" light, it wouldn't matter what light wave (visible to human eyes or not) a device emits unless it is the wavelength for the color yellow. That's why I suggested a quick fix of a randomly flashing yellow light aimed at each lane as a possible way to defend against a tree-reader. But it must be the same physical size and color of the yellow tree lights (not stage or pre-stage like on older trees).

So you’ve never heard of FB running a delay box inside transmission pan..lol

That’s an odd direction to go from my comment.

Besides Retread says nobody is cheating.

Thanks for the press release link 3/4 the say down the page on a 20 page post..

"Contact Compulink for more information."

Does Compulink have a website or Facebook page? I have probably just been searching in the wrong places. Take care. Tom Worthington

I'm open minded, and I have more questions....

Is this going to be proprietary to Compulink?
Will it be shared with Accutime, or is Rusty in the mix here?
It is about the health of the sport, right?

Will it be offered for promoters to buy or rent it for their events?

Wouldn't it have been better to just use it, and never say a word about it, to flush out the cheaters?

I still would like to know what's known, and who knows it....

Right lane broke out

NOPE

YUP - Rusty has been in the mix since the start

CORRECT

Will it be offered for promoters to buy or rent it for their events?

NOT THAT SIMPLE as a software upgrade and minor hardware need installed. BUT if I was a promoter and headed to a track I'd certainly request and also offer to pay for the install if it hasn't been done.

NOT SURE - NOT MY CALL

QUITE A BIT and some pretty smart people

Goob,

SL attempted to answer all your questions, but one!

I'll give my perspective on the secretive time slip. There's is one glaring item (maybe more) in that time slip, the right lanes .576 reaction time. The cheater doesn't need a .000 or .00x to control the race, but probably has the option to control what he or she chooses.

2BKING has the 40+ year background!

Right lane 60 ft is awfully slow.

Not if it tripped the 60s with the rear tires, then it would be pretty close. I would go 1.30-1.32 and then go 1.42-1.44 on the rear tires while running 5.90s-6.0s

You would assume that the right lane was crossing over, and a 6.54 crossover dial would have his actual .006 looking like that.
You would think that in round 1 there wouldn't be a leftover crossover in, but who knows?

The last 1st round I ran in '22 I totally forgot to put the crossover in, never even looked at the dial ins until after I left the line .3xx red, but showing the W lamp.

Looks like a t/stop setup as for the increments?
It obviously has enough HP to run sub 5.70's

I just haven't seen anything sticking out about that run that answers any questions for me.

Looks a lot like when I run high gear only.
