· The utilities menu now contains an option “Increment Driver’s Age” that will add one to the

age of each driver that is registered. Use this to speed up the registration process at the start of
a new season for drivers that participated the previous year.


· The category menu in CARS now contains an option “Perfect Reaction Time.” This option

allows you to enter the value that CARS will consider a perfect reaction time. Use this option
when the C44 is configured for tree-based Reaction Times.


· The wording of the “Ladder” option in the category menu of CARS has been revised. Pick

“Sportsman Ladder” if you want CARS to pair the top half of the field with the bottom half.
Ex. 1-9, 2-10, etc. in a 16 car field. Pick “Pro Ladder” if you want CARS to use the
professional pairings. Ex. 1-16, 2-15, etc. in a 16-car field. The “Pro Ladder” setting is only
valid for 1-16 car ladders.


· Don’t automatically display “EVENT SPONSOR” on the third line of the header for

printouts. Use this line for the event sponsor or for other text.


· The Configure/System menu now contains an option titled “Track Points Default,” that will

change the default value for the track points field of the registration record. Choose “Enter
New Racers’ to use a default value of zero for new drivers. Choose “Do Not Enter New
Racers” to use a default value of -1 for new drivers. When this field is -1, the driver is not in
the track points program.


· Also, when the points are cleared, only clear the track points if the driver was in the points

program (the track points value was not -1). This should reduce the number of registration
records that need to be edited for the purpose of adding or removing the driver from the track
points program.


· Add Semi-Finalists to the Final Results printout.
