I guess what I am asking for is to be able to scroll through all of a races entrants running lines w/o clicking on each separately and having to work one entrant at a time.

Good luck to the TFUS folks on their launch, I look forward to further improvements.
You can press the print button and get all the horses without having to click on each one.

How do I turn MPH and sectionals from the three furlong point into relative BHB weights.

I notice that there's not too much difference between the top level and the lower level in terms of being able to reach 38 mph + but how can I use this to my advantage.

I was thinking of converting from MPH into Miles per Minute then into lengths per furlong? There was also an idea to calculate the course averages on the day whereby races will intercept each other for example; clocking the seven furlong pole to the eight furlong pole in a mile race will over lap in clocking from the three furlong pole to the two furlong pole in a 10f race.

Before working out which horses had dipped below or above the average I realised this method was flawed because nothing interloped with the 16f race on the card and would render the average comparison void, being the only calculation in the set.

I've got a suggestion - there is plenty of room to put both the race times and the fractions right underneath them, or leader's times with winner's times underneath.

I'll certainly pass that on. I know when deluxe are available (no, not sure on a date yet), you will get the race figs and the horse figs.

Tried printing them out this past weekend, noticed that workout times do not print our under the PP's on each horse. Anybody else have this same problem as well as the pace projector does not print out on the preview page.

Yes, Storm, I have.

For the TUS team, this is my download experience and I could surely be doing something incorrectly.

I tried, repeatedly, printing the pace projector as a separate page, all to no avail. I gave up on the printing of the pace projector and the pps, trying instead to go with Marc's concept of Ipad only, no printing-no paper, 21st century style for each card's complete pps.

I've logged in one day prior to, and early in the morning of, the day's races. Trying to bookmark them or to save them to my Ipad's homepage with an icon for each individual race. (Not printing them, simply saving them in advance of post time). Each time I did this I went back a few minutes later, only to find each race was gone. I had to log-in again with username and password, go to track finder and do this over, (thinking I'm doing something wrong.) Yet, so far, this has happened each time. The pps haven't been available for early download. They've work fine in "real time" during the races. I used them with success yesterday with Cj's adjusted times, the pace projector...everything I wanted.

In the beginning I was vocal about not being able to print them. With discussion here, and Marc reading, I was able to do so, as were others. I wanted to try them in the way they were intended with the pace projections. But, prior to the day's races. I'd rather handicap hours before the races, not minutes between races. And I'd certainly prefer this come Breeders' Cup, when other pps are up days in advance.

As I said, its quite possible all of this is me, and if so, I'm showing my blatant ignorance. This noted, when I save my Bris past performances days in advance, they are on my Ipad, and remain so, until opened in my I-Annotate folder. ... Please, forgive the lengthy post, gentlemen.

Grits, just a tip. If there is something you really need to save to your Ipad, don't forget you can take a screen shot of anything you can get on your screen.

Just hit your home and power button at the same time. You will hear a camera click sound and you can open the screen capture in "photos" where your camera shots reside.

You probably already know this........but just in case timeformus looks like this ( I shrunk it down for posting) as a screenshot. All the info from pace projector would then be available.

Hi Grits,

You can absolutely use the printer icon to open up race PPs as PDFs days in advance. Pace projectors, which are available when tracks go final with program numbers, I can think of some work-arounds for saving those as well. Can I recommend you send an e-mail to Matt@timeformus.com and tomorrow Matt will take care of you?

HA!! I told you all I was quite likely doing something wrong. Do I have egg on my face, gentlemen? Maybe so, but I couldn't care less. I want my TUS' in advance on my IPad.

Marc, thank you so much. I will contact Matt. --g

J.R., you're so sharp. If Marc has problems with the work-arounds, I'll get out my Canon and take a photo of the pace projector. One thing going on at a time with the IPad, bud. The Queen of Multitasking, I'm not.

Here I am worried about past performances access, and I'm watching "breaking news" on our government shutting down tomorrow. I need to rethink my priorities.

Don't worry about the Canon , just hit the home button and the power button at the same time, then go to your photos. Works great for saving screen grabs of Google maps too......or anything on your screen.....if it's on your screen, you can save it

You can also email those screenshots or export them to other apps. Have fun.....

Came across what I consider to be the first real problem with TFUS, and it's a disappointing one.

Despite the call I made in the quote above, I was charged for an entire month today for an unlimited subscription. How could this happen? It's not a rhetorical question, either.

I don't want my $$ back, $50 is no big deal. And I'll use TFUS once a week (maybe), but $50 for once a week is nonsense....so when I took the step to canx the subscription, I expected it to be done.

Please, get your stuff right when it comes to charging people $$. Like I said, I don't consider $50 a big deal, but what is a big deal is when a company tells me they've canx'd a subscription and I still get charged.

Fix it. I don't want my $$ back, just fix it. If possible, create an on line ability to canx a subscription.

Doug Salvatore comes through again with his top pick at Belmont. He has been nothing short of sensational with his picks.
