[Crash Test]

Hrmmm, they are timing down to the ten-thousandth of a second....did Avesco shout them some new stop watches?

[RaceTime]

No - they took their own DATA-1 system with them, but I suspect the locals are actually running it as the combined times were issued with errors for at least 4 vehicles neccessitating 3 re-issues of times.
