So after the Budds Creek race, being one of the guys being lapped, I figured this would be a good idea. Once someone had crossed the finish line, the dot on the track map representing them should change to a different color, so a lapped rider can tell if a leader is coming behind them, and make sure its not a rider battling for position with them. I know the blue flag has already been brought up, but if you are in a pack, and the leaders are lapping the whole pack, it would be hard to determine if the guy lapping you is right behind you, or 2 spots back etc. This could help us slow guys get out of the way for the leaders, and still keep our racing going. Just a thought.

already been discussed i believe, anyway best solution to me would be 4 colors.
leader - green
rider in front of you - blue
rider behind you - white
finished rider - grey

that way if you see a blue or green dot coming in from behind you know he is coming to lap you.

Oh alright cool. Or if any rider is on a lap number higher than you make it green and if hes on a lap lower than you make it red or something.

1st-green
2nd-orange
3rd-red
Have the blue flag system and hope riders obey it, if not some type of time penalty for not letting leader pass some how?

Oh, guys can you tell why i ONLY see green dot on the track map

Sounds good to me. I would love that blue flag. I feel bad when I mess other peoples races up because of my slowness

I would rather use the suggestion Servatis had, than using different colors each positions.

Or, if you been lapped , you get the blue flag

i agree with you...

Since we're talking dots, Id like that big arrow representing myself to be a RED dot instead. The arrow hides nearby dots next to me.

** I think the real question is, what are the rules for when a blue flag comes out at real events? In an mx/sx event, do they wave the blue flag for just the top 3 leaders only? If so, stocksy has right idea. If blue flag comes out for anyone getting lapped, then servatis has better idea.
