PQ questions/anomalies

Postby steward » Wed Feb 06, 2008 6:08 am

1. Did Nearctic have only 47 starts? I counted 50.
(13 - 16 - 18 - 3 from '56 thru '59, according to chart books and charts)

2. OTOH, I can only find 30 (5 - 12 - 13 '72 thru '74) for Torsion, and not 38 as listed in PQ.

The records as given in the db here for both Nearctic & Torsion are consistent w/ the APR (see below). It's the best widely available source there is, but not 100% error-free, especially w/ older rcds.

Thanks, PZ. Your info for Nearctic is accurate.
