Hi Papa 3,
There is something else going on is US racing that hasn't beed
mentioned. We're not calling the old Assigned task very much, any more;
Parowan last year----5 TAT's and only 1 AST
Standard's " " ----2 MAT's and 2 TAT's
Seniors this year-----2 AST's and 4 TAT's

So what does this have to do with the finish?
The vast majority will be coming from other than a known last turn
point. They may be coming from all directions in the case of the MAT
and from a wide quadrant in the case of the TAT, depending on its
radius and distance from home plate. If for no other reason, this makes
it a "No Brainer" to use the finish cylinder.
JJ
