Automatic optimum time calculation

If you do not enter an optimum time, the Toolkit calculates it for you, based on measured distance and speed. Record with CrossCountry 2 (or CrossCountry on Android) for extra time calculations "on the go". The Toolkit Stats also give you time at each fence based on the same calculations.

Step by Step in the Toolkit

You can do this with a free account

  3. Search for the event and open the course
  4. Tap the stats button

  8. Change the speed and see what happens
  9. When you add in the official optimum time, the toolkit calculates the official distance for your print map. You can override this if you want to round it up or down e.g. from 2308 to 2310. All time and distance stats are recalculated in the stats section.

Minimum Time and Speed Faults

We do not calculate the minimum time automatically as it varies from country to country. Set it in the Advanced Tab. We will be adding in other calculations for Speed Faults as used in the USA
