Hey Ramjam ..... just what sort of "Tranny" did you have in mind? I thought it was fairly obvious, one that gets in your pants thru the night of course cause ya don't Wannna sit there just holding the tranny all night😃 6ft tall, fish nets and a shadow growth, just to hold your seat when you go for chips?

Enough about Transistor Radio's, lets keep the discussion to the teams champs.
If you want to discuss Transistor Radio's I'm sure there are plenty of other sites on the web that can accommodate your needs.

If you want to discuss Transistor Radio's I'm sure there are plenty of other sites on the web that can accommodate your needs. but as I tried to point out, given the state of the PA at palmy, the enjoyment of the fans at teams champs can be greatly enhanced by the use of a transistor radio.

the PA would be ok {maybe} if they didn't call the results from 2 or 3 races ago while the cars were doing their warmup laps. All I can hear then is V8's screaming {good music to me} but it would be good to be able to write the correct results in the program. It would seem to be more important to get a mexican wave going "because the world is watching"

Why dont they have a section from provisional results. Because 90 percent they wolnt change. Unless a car gets excluded or they have a transonder issue. But would make everybody writing down results easier if they had an unoffical results page thats a tear away. That way commentators can read out unoffical results. Not get them three races later and already be on the back foot.

It would seem to be more important to get a mexican wave going "because the world is watching" 20th Season on the Mic Like Hornet said official results don't come through until signed off and that is usually 2 or 3 races later. We do call provisional results as the race/ teams battle comes to a finish and sometimes finding a quiet period to do the results is not always possible. The longer you leave it the more they stack up. Take a Pencil and a Pen so you can write the prov result then fill in again in Pen once official as they do differ regularly.

Why not just post "official" results on the big screen?

Wouldn't matter how loud the cars are or what the PA system sounds like.

A lot of people will still go to this event no matter the cost but they will more likely skip a few other meetings during the season now, so while the promoter may make a good profit on this event it will balance out with less gate takings at other meetings now. Is that good for the sport? I would say not.
