andydude Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Anything more than 12 it should've read. And that's my opinion - not necessarily what others may agree on Thank you for all the information, Gerald. Where can I see my road seeding?

Frosty Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Question of the day Andy... I do not know.
Frosty Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 @shaper the seeding for this race gets done using the results available to the timing company. The PPA seeding is merely an indication and only used for WP races
andydude Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) http://www.pedalpowe...seeding-lookup/ Thank you. Two interesting things: one, they used only one race, Die Burger, for 100% of my seeding while before it was 34% + 34% + 32% from your best three races, and two, PPA races are Racetec, but Carnival uses Championship and I didn't know they mix.

Frosty Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) I stand under correction, but the PPA seeding is only used to seed for PPA organised events, and not for other events. Cycle Events uses their own database of which most of the Gauteng (and nearby provinces) races are organised by them. Sereghetti would have been seeded using Cycle Events database, not PPA. Anyone in the know should agree/correct me Edited February 10, 2014 by geraldm24

Anyone in the know should agree/correct me The seeding lookup on www.pedalpower.org.za/index.php/results-seeding/seeding/seeding-lookup/ is just an iframe to results.pedalpower.org.za/findme.aspx?ss=1 . Do a nslookup on results.pedalpower.org.za and you will see it is the racetec server:$ nslookup results.pedalpower.org.zaresults.pedalpower.org.za canonical name = results.racetec.co.za.Name: results.racetec.co.zaAddress: 197.96.19.17 Onetime I had a query about seeding at a number collection for a Cycle event + Racetec race. I got directed to racetec employee. For these reasons, I believe that the seeding that you see on the ppa site is the same as what is used for non ppa racetec races. Interestingly, my Carnival city 2013 results are in that seeding data. You guys give them the data to use for 94.7. (Which we do appreciate) I think they then use that data for for other races. However, they then don't reciprocate, and make their data available for championchip race seeding. :cursing: This is nasty anti-competitive behaviour on racetec's part.

GaryvdM Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 On a more personal issue: my current racetec seeding index: 23. My current champion chip seeding index (caculated by hand, guessing beta's, and no time penalties): 48 . So I expect to be doing to some TTing at Carnival City 2014.
scotty Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Having fun and games trying to enter, Champion reg site asks for my id and chip number, enter the chip number which i looked up using their look up option on their site and when i input it on the reg page it tells me there is no such number. I can even update my details on the site but not reg for a race
Frosty Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 @GaryvdM how was your 94.7 and Argus last year (if you did it)? @Scotty that means you should be helping us *wink* *wink*
GaryvdM Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 @GaryvdM how was your 94.7 and Argus last year (if you did it)? 94.7 - 2:51 - index = 28.00
Frosty Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Not so bad, unless you're thinking you'll be dropped from one of the front bunches
