More Trakus issues

Check out the chart from R5 at Aqueduct today. They have the winner and runner up 0.17 seconds apart, or about a length. The official chart has the difference as a neck (from the photo finish camera). Where did the rest come from on Trakus?

Also, final time was about 2 seconds slower than what showed on the track timer. The Equibase chart used the Trakus time for the final time but the track timer for the fractions. What kind of way is that to do things?

Here's all the various times NYRA has for the 5th today. The Equibase chart originally matched the Trakus time but has since been changed.

I was on track, 8 races, at least 1 mistimed. 5 horse fields. Race 6 was certainly the most interesting races I have seen in a LONG while.

I have no idea if NYRA has offered anything to WO owners but if they haven't they should contemplate a $2,000 offer for shipping down.

I heard there are 1400 empty Bel stables.

I am supremely worried about AQU and the inner track.

As I have told you earlier today, we have nothing to loose if we completely skip the inner track for the whole meeting. My problem is that I am so used to it that I cannot stop betting it..

In the end the final time they settled on is probably pretty close. I'm mean it sucks but stuff happens. I'm curious how there were two different times on the video feed, both wrong (the 150.46 and the 200.43)

I'm still curious how Trakus turns a head, maybe at most a neck, into 0.17 seconds. That is a big error.

I promised NYRA a drastic reduction in wagering on the INNER TRACK. So far, promise kept

Not because I want to but because they make it that way.

On top of it all, if I have to get blasted by TLG on here, all the more reason to NOT shop at NYRA.

I'd rather and I do, spend money on places that have good customer service VS. the competition.

He is a poor face for the company. Terrible attitude.

Interesting as I noticed that at the finish the chiclet made it look like the 4 was ahead. I was watching closely as I had both in the contest and the 4 was my A horse with more picks. I was watching the horses and felt as they passed the wire that the 1 won but noticed a big discrepancy with the chiclet. I just looked at the replay and stopped manually at the finish line and it really is off. I have no problem because the 1 was the winner but it makes it look like they are running this thing with Windows 98 or something.

In your pic/snapshot, the moment in time you clicked on is well before the wire, in terms of 'chiclets".

Where are the "chiclets" on the fake wire?
