Post your timingates file here. Or, mainly the bottom part that say first lap and regular lap or whatever. Show us those numbers.

[mxbiker]

firstlap:
0 1 2 3 4
normallap:
0 1 2 3 4

these are the numbers

I'll get online when i get home tonight.

So what i would do is move #28 back to the top of the takeoff on that big table. For this, we will say that is the finish line.

Your lines would then read:
firstlap:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
normallap:
29 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

you can try this and see if you like it. basically, firstlap is the gate numbers you go through for the first lap. normallap is the order of gates you go through on the second, third, fourth, and fifth laps(or however many you are doing). You can put the finish line wherever you want, you will just have to change the numbers around. I hope this helps. I will be online later if you need more assistance. Let me know
