v8.6.5

A new pre-race ready check for officials, automatic post-event feedback you can shape and review, and a few setup and organisation refinements.

Officiating

  • Technical officials: You can now run a ready check from the in-race tools menu. It sends everyone who can submit penalties or incidents a single prompt to confirm they're ready before the start, and the race control team view shows each person as checked in, pending, or not ready in real time. A Resend button (with a short cooldown) re-prompts anyone who hasn't confirmed, and Reset starts a fresh round if positions change.

Event setup

  • Technical delegates: Race setup has a new Ready check option in the Options tab that turns the ready check on for a race, so you decide per race whether officials can run a pre-race readiness check.
  • Technical delegates: New events can no longer be given a start date in the past — when creating an event the date picker and validation now require today or later.

Event feedback

  • After an event finishes, everyone who took part is asked for quick feedback the next time they open the app: a short overall rating of RaceRanger plus any questions the organisation has set up. You can fill it in or tap Not now to dismiss it, and you're only asked once per event.
  • Organisation admins: You can build that feedback form in your organisation settings — turn on Collect post-event feedback and add your own questions using star-rating, yes/no, single-choice, multiple-choice, and free-text types, then review the responses gathered for your organisation afterwards.

Organisation

  • Organisation admins: The organisation's user list can now be filtered — start typing a name or email to narrow it to matching people.

Behind the scenes

  • Event weather refreshes more often during the day, so the forecast shown in the app stays fresher.
