Default RE: Computer program for racing heats

There already is an excellent one. Go to the [link=http://www.NMPRA.org]National Miniature Pylon Racing Association (NMPRA)website[/link]. Click on "Software" (left side of screen). Download "Paul Herman's NMPRA Race Program". It not only does the matrix, but also keeps track of the scoring.

Paul Herman has also written another program, which will handle three classes, based on Break-out times. Go to the [link=http://www.RCPRO.org]Radio Control Pylon Racing Organization (RCPRO) website[/link]. Look on the left. Click on "RCPRO Racing". Click on "RCPRO Warbird". Click on "Race Management". This program works extremly well when people are useing different planes and engines. Can even use electric power. Classes are determined by time, not equipment. To state the obvious, you do not have to be flying warbirds to use this program.
