So... you still *think*, you just wish you hadn't *told* me. Aherm. ;) Actually, I think TV is exactly the wrong thing to do first. TV makes a lot of demands on a sport, demands that are non-negotiab

The same thing is true of most forms of motorsport...drag racing and oval track are the obvious exceptions. And even on some ovals, it's not that easy to see anything other than what's right in front

Sorry, just had to chime in here: it doesn't make sense to compare ski racing to SOLO, on many levels - apples & oranges, BUT as far as the above statement goes, keep in mind that in Europe and Japa

That's not easy with the current timer setup. Get the Pro timers computerized, and it would be trivial, as you describe. It's a simple matter of money... Mark
