Vintage Road Racing Association

All, this is becoming quite a task.

There is a fair amount of Data Missing from MyLaps and some riders are being assigned to the wrong races, e.g. P1-250 bikes in P1-350 and Open 2-Stroke, etc.

I'm hoping that Timothy will have paper copies and I'll enter it manually.

I've spent 2 days on this already and it will need a lot of massaging, so I'm going to start with P1 and work towards the Modern Invitational classes. Unfortuantly it will all have to be done class by class so it may take a few days.

Thanks for your work Brian.

Wow, that’s a lot of time dedicated. Thank you Brian!

All the solo classes, Masters and Warwick Cup have been added to the website.

The only exceptions being the finals for Middleweight Production, P1-500 and P1-250 which are not curently in MyLaps. I couldn't calculate the season standings for these either. Timothy normally keeps paper copies so we can just manually insert them.

This was a bit of a mess this time...

1. A fair percentage of people on the track seemed to be running without Transponders. In some cases folks were scored but were just slotted at the end of the race, while in others were placed in the actual position they finished. It would be good to keep that consistent in the future, either do one or the other otherwise its a manual process. This was also a big problem in Rounds 1 and 2.

2. Many people had different numbers at each event this year. This all had to be fixed manually. In this case, I simply allocated people their number from Mosport in the season standings.

3. My other pet peeve is that it seems that the data entered into MyLaps was done from a combination of English and French Keyboards. While the looks the same to a human it’s a completely different character set to a computer. I've put in a fix for that already

I had to manually correct all of the above and I believe its correct, but I would ask that you check your position and points and let me know if you think something is wrong. Half the problems stem from MyLaps as I believe there is no one really supporting it any more.

The sidecar results are not there. I actually just realized that in the makeup race from Calabogie there were outfits that didn't race at Calabogie. I'll have to either remove them from the results or score them with a 0.

Hello Brian,

First, thank you for taking on this task.

I can not seem to find the 2025 sprint results for Vintage Festival. I go to >results>2025 Sprint> Vintage Festival, it is blank (Quinte TT & Summer Classic are populated)?

When I use the quick link button "Sprint Results" bottom of web site home page, it supplies 2024 results.

Where do I locate the 2025 Vintage Festival Sprint results?

Thanks Paul. This is 100% my fault as I just updated the data base but never looked at the page with the results. These 20 hour days are taking their toll

It seems like the probem is that there is now so much data on that page and it exceeds the cache buffer on some browsers.

Right now when the data comes from the back end I'm doing what they call "eager-load" so the browser gets all the data up front and stores that locally. I need to change that out to what they call "lazy-load" so it only gets the data for the tab that you click on and flushes everything else.

I'm just getting lazy in my old age. I was too lazy to go and get a piece of Chromoly to make a shifter rod for my RZ. I used some Alunimum rod and ended up only having 4th gear in the finals at Mosport when it broke... Grrrrr...

So, I quickly changed the main tabs to lazy-load so it should work for you now, although it did change some of the formatting as that is also stored in the database. I'll fix that when I rewrite the page but unfortunatly it won't be this week.

If it still dosent work, clear your browser cache or use incognito mode.

Let me know

Timothy will have the paper copies to me today or tomorrow so the rest will be updated shortly

Thanks Brian,

Not understand anything you just said

Brian I trust you are the right person for the job.

I know I speak for many, we appreciate your efforts and dedication to this task.

Sorry, it should not be this difficult.

Thanks Paul. Did it work? I seem to be able to get it on my phone so thats a good sign

Yes looks good to me Brian,

Your other classes like P1-500 should be in there as well. There is no timing as they had to be typed in manually.

I understood the chrome moly shifter rod part. Bummer!

Yes, thanks so much Brian for all your time and work on this!

Yes, every single race this year. I must get the same Gentleman at pit in as his only response was "Again?". I've tried the Woodcraft rods and home made solid rods in 6061 Alumimum and threaded Stainless. Its just too long.



Thanks to Byron at Cox Customs for this one in 1/2 Chromoly. If I break it I'm giving up

Two small changes.

I was just talking to Timothy and I need to move the results for Tim Joyce from P2 sidecar to P2H sidecar for the Calabogie races. That will be to the advantage of everyone in P2, but my apologies in advance to Dave and Jody I'll try to have it done by Monday.

I also had to tweak the P4-F2 results as the top 5 were not correct in mylaps

Other than that, no one else has complained so hopefully that's that.

The chrome moly rod should do it!

No worries on the P2H results. We ended up with fastest lap for the class so we’re happy with that.
