Both tracks in Victoria measure there MPH just after the finish line.
Measuring the speed before the pass is over dont make sense, whats the name of the track and is it ANDRA affiliated?
Ok, I will stand corrected, but the info was from the willowbank website and from our local Tas track, which is andra affiliated.

I'll shut up now and wait for some times to be posted and argued about.....
