Agree but disagree

Mitch , I agree that using the 50 or 100 % setting on the DTV will not prevent anyone from getting most of the winners.
But in my research using the 100% setting I got 7% more winners in the CSR ratings than I got using the 50% setting.
The CSR rating ( a Dave Schwartz rating ) is a compounded rating based on the last 4 speed ratings compounded. And while I agree that it could be improved upon if it were Distance and surface dependent it is still a very useful tool to be used in separating the true contenders in a race.
