In November of 2008, the Central Council of Handicappers for PHRF-LO voted in favour of adjusting the Q.Factor in our Time on Time formula to .008 from .045.

This was as a result of an in depth analysis of over 3500 races for the last 5 years by our Technical Advisory Committee.

As a result, our formula was adjusted slightly to accomodate that change.

Below is the modified version of the original formula.

Q = .008
S = Scratch Boat = ASP 177
R = (8.36 x 10⁶) ÷ ((ASP + 378.3)²)
RS = (8.36 x 10⁶) ÷ ((177 + 378.3)²)
TOT = ((1 ÷ √RS + Q) ÷ ((1 ÷ √R) +Q))
or TOT = (578.431 ÷ (ASP + 401.431))

Your new A & B values are:

A = 578.431
B = 401.431
