Example
On a particular rally, cars are started at one minute intervals. Car 1 starts a section at 02.35 and the section is 12 miles long. Set at an average speed of 30 mph, the section should take exactly 24 minutes. Therefore their due time is 2.35 + 24, which is 2.59. If they arrive at the time control at 3.01, they will accrue 2 minutes penalty.

Famous quotes containing the word example:
“Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
