SAE Italy: Wrong Point Calculation ?!

[Jakob]

Hello,

maybe it's because I'm stupid, but:

To make a quick check if my points calculation spreadsheet is right, I've entered some times from SAE Italy 2011 autocross, but I don't get the same results.

http://www.ata.it/upload/alleg.../autocross-event.pdf

Due the follow the SAE rules (http://www.ata.it/upload/allegati_su...rules-2011.pdf), the equation should be:

=142.5*((tmax/tyour-1)/(tmax/tmin-1))+7.5

tmax = 1.25 x tmin

Right?

The best time was 48,734 s, so tmax is 60,918 s.

If a team finishs slower than tmax, the should get 7,5 points.

So why is a team with a 61,266 time getting 47,980 Points?

I've just seen in the result document that the are using 68,228 s as tmax.

So the factor is 1.4.

Does anybody know why the are doing this?

Just wondering ...
