Possible Error In RDSS Adjusted Times
I was studying a race that Jeff had posted on July 28th and looked at the equalized and adjusted times from RDSS.
It was brought to my attention that the adjusted times represented at the 2nd call were unrealistic and way too fast. I have to agree. I believe that Ted should look at the adjusted RDSS screens and numbers and possibly correct the obvious error. |

my look
Hi Bill H.
I at one time worried about the adjusted numbers too. But I found that by trying to re adjust the numbers myself caused me to loose confidence and races. The numbers for some tracks and distances are unexplainable The trick is to accept that they are all adjusted to "Sartin Downs" so even though they might not show reality, all tracks, distances and surfaces get adjusted the same way, In this procedure, of course some tracks or distances will be more accurate then others. Outside of a electronic method like Trackus,that could be hand entered into a program what else can we do ? Even accurate would be accurate but then the track variant issue still would be subject to somebody opinion Any data sorce, Beyer number "sheets" or any track/race data is still heavily influenced by somebodys opinion Trackmaster does need to evaluate some issues but Its not RDSS's fault This type of issue goes back to the very beginning of downloaded data in to Sartin programs Doc used to say " If it is flawed Its still better than whats second best" Hope to see you do well as always Bill |

I agree with you. The RDSS software is excellent and it's not the fault of Ted or the software. Possibly, Ted should re-address this long standing issue with Trackmaster and have them correct their data files. I don't think this problem would occur with BRIS, HSW or Post Time Daily data files. It is hard for me to believe that in a game of precision and accuracy and where the data is our primary tool that one should accept or be content with flawed or inaccurate numbers. Bill V. Quote:
However, in todays world of high technology I feel that does not hold true anymore and is not a valid statement. The problem should be addressed and corrected by Trackmaster. Last edited by partsnut; 08-01-2012 at 11:20 AM. |

Disagree
Hi Bill
No I am certian Doc's quote is in responce to this very issue As I recall the track in question was Gulfstream Park The Issue of times being this much or that much off disturbed some clients but only in regard to how the Sartin Normalized Adjusted and Equalized numbers were calculated Remember this The adjusted numbers RDSS shows are unique to trackmaster clients These numbers are not the equibase numbers that all other data files mirror This all is written about in a follow up I will research this further The point I was bringing up is not who has a beter product, I am confident the powers that be at Trackmaste/eqiubase and with Ted's input problems will be addressed and repaired |

Hi Bill,
I have no doubt that Ted will address this because he wants his clients to win. Ted is a very bright fellow and wants his product to be efficient. I have the utmost confidence that he will get the problem corrected. I did 3 WOX races this evening and I used the speed numbers from the BRIS PP Generator. These numbers are very similar to the Beyer numbers. I used them with Synergism 4 which allows the user to set up for Beyer numbers. The outcome should be interesting and this may yet give Ted another option. If you are so inclined, you may want to run these races. Here's what I used: I purposely included mixed distances. Syn 4 equalizes them. Race-6 1-L3 3-L2 4-L2 7-L1 Race-7 1-L1 3-L1 4-L1 8-L3 Race-8 1-L3 2-L2 3-L3 4-L3 9-L2 |
