News from Timing & Scoring - Nanci Maloney

   New Software 

BMW CCA Club Racing Timing and Scoring will be using the newest AMB Orbitz software program this season. Orbitz has numerous improvements not only for T&S but, for the racers.

Race data can now be sent electronically to the AMB website, where it can be accessed by individual racers. Racers can now get individual lap times and race results in a pdf format from the web. BMW CCA Club Racing will continue to post the OFFICIAL results to the BMW CCA Club Racing website. We will post the AMB website to the All Racers List towards the end of February.

  New Faces 

We at BMW CCA Club Racing are pleased to announce that Roland Nieves will be the newest member of the BMW CCA CR T&S team. Roland is a member of the Omaha Chapter of BMW CCA. He has extensive experience with DEs as well as race management for PCA CR. He will be training with the T&S staff this season. Please welcome Roland to the BMW CCA T&S team.

  Is this "Telemetry"? 

BMW CCA Club Racing has also upgraded the T&S equipment to allow two way communication directly from the T&S computers. AMB is in the process of developing an in-car real time display of individual lap times, race position as well as class position. There is very little additional information at this time regarding any specifics. Check the BMW CCA Club Racing website for announcements and updates.

  Racer Updates 

We are in the process of updating the T&S database. The Orbitz software allows T&S to maintain a central database as well as race specific data. T&S strives to maintain an accurate database, but we need the racers help to do this. There will be a form on the website to notify T&S and the National Registrar, Fran Hughes of any changes to pertinent personal information. Please use this form to assist us in assuring the accuracy of results, points and the database.
