Well on my version the grandstand appears to be a building site.... which dates it a bit, but the mile start is clearly visible as a worn strip across the track, I think I've found the winning posts but they aren't as clear as on some other tracks, and because I haven''t paid for the satelitte spy version, it pixelates at about 100 feet. Anyway I reckon the near side is about 1.4 yards shorter, but there is a kink in the rail and I've used a straight line. I've brought it in just short of a mile too which makes me think I've lined up against something other than the winning post

1,677.18 yds far side and 1,675.78 near side. The GPS is accurate to with 0.1% apparently.

[QUOTE="Warbler, post: 2128338, member: 65228"] Well on my version the grandstand appears to be a building site.... which dates it a bit, but the mile start is clearly visible as a worn strip across the track, I think I've found the winning posts but they aren't as clear as on some other tracks, and because I haven''t paid for the satelitte spy version, it pixelates at about 100 feet. Anyway I reckon the near side is about 1.4 yards shorter, but there is a kink in the rail and I've used a straight line. I've brought it in just short of a mile too :eek: which makes me think I've lined up against something other than the winning post 1,677.18 yds far side and 1,675.78 near side. The GPS is accurate to with 0.1% apparently. [/QUOTE]
