How long must the model be studied , before you start to use the info?
I start with 2 races. You now have a target range, that you can expand as more races are added.
Does not the Track Bias's change daily?
Your model will tell you that.
It seems short meets like Ky and DM and Sar are not canidates for track Models ,due to the short time they run, or is this a myth, as Bias's change daily and even thru out the day, is this not true?
Again, your model will tell you that. I keep models for Saratoga.

Finding Track bias's info is available bt different sources, are any of them usable forms of info, or must one make his own Track Model, I think the latter is more proffessional ,that's to keep your own.
If you use someone else's numbers, how do you equate to to your numbers? You need to know what to look for in your program, which looks at races differently than others do.
I ask this as I tend to get things mixed up alot and was wondering if using DRF track bias's or the track's own website for it variants and nuances , and be able to trust them well enough, and use them accordingly.
KISS - use your program, focus on a couple of key factors - read Tim's posts on E/L and Total+3F
