Well UH, I and a lot of other racers have found that Flarm radar makes racing more fun. Most of us are in it for the fun of it. Let's not mess with that great feature please.

And messing with delayed tracking would reduce the fun and usefulness of crew following and race monitoring. So that's a bad idea also.


What's fun at regional level (and I think open flarm & real time tracking are good things at the regional level) becomes problematic at WGC.
