Just looking back on the every car lining up for scrutiny, every day.
For example the Phillip Island Classic event.
500 vehicles entered.
Either the 500 entrants either push their cars to scrutineering (if before
9.00am when race engines can be started) or wait until after 9.00 to drive up.
Allowing for quick brake light, wheel nut and oil leak check would take 3 to 4 minutes per car.
If we could run 4 lines of 4 scrutineers it would take over two hours, with out any issues.
With the new Audit system.
125 to 150 cars selected for audits.
The audit is done at the most suitable time over the duration of the meeting.
Smart competitors ring an approved pre-race inspection scrutineer 2 weeks before, if an audit
was due,to have the car checked before the race week-end. If there were any isues these could
be attended to before arriving at the track.
I know which system I prefer.
