Yes (or at least when I have asked MSA representatives that is certainly what I have been told.
Or did the MSA/the organisers/whoever else come up with that idea?
I know enough organisers to be confident in saying that organisers hate bogey times just as much as competitors (and they also hate chicanes).
I think nobody in here is denying the organisers can just ignore the rules, but there are a lot more sensible and effective ways to enforce lower average speeds than by using bogey times.
So please tell us about other solutions (but keep in mind that the Forestry Commission only allow a much more restricted choice of roads these days compared to the past)?
