Is there an age-graded performance data field in the log? (time and %) If not, is there a way it could be added? Thanks. Tom

Hi Tom,

I don't think a field is needed since the information is calculated, so why not calculate it on the fly? I've been thinking about age grading the data. I'll add it as soon as I get hold of a decent formula for it.

Dunno if it helps any, but ...

I use THIS SITE. They say:

Note that the factors are stored in this page, in Javascript, so that you can save the page to your local machine for use as an off-line calculator....

This calculator uses the 2006 Age-grading factors, which have been partially updated in 2010, by Alan Jones.

See also: Master's track website. Factors available as Excel file.

The older I get, the more attractive this idea becomes. Smile

Any updates?

The simplest solution would be to add an AG calculator under the Resources/Calculators page. The link CliveF provided should have all that's needed. Adding that to the PR page would be a nice touch.
