That is a good guestion. Don't really know. I would venture to say plan B.

I thought Bowman was the track in Orangeburg. ITs on this one.

Looks like around 2:30 the DA was 2380 FT if that is the right track.

Carlrx7 05-30-2010 11:51 PM

hmm, well i guess now i just need to find an 1/8 mile one..

Bowman is in Orangeburg but is not the Orangeburg track. But you do use the DA from the Orangeburg track for Bowman.

Just found that one and it worked for me as I mostly run the 1/4. I guess you could use their 1/4 to 1/8 conversion.

I need to get a handheld weather station so bad. Because my experience is the DA changes alot during the day and from the pits to the staging lanes.

ahhh, but the 1/4 to 1/8 conversion doesn't ever work for me, too much spining in the 1/8.
