Request to have the 'printer friendly' page live update or reload after finish trips.
For smaller clubs like ours (45 driver event cap), I feel the printer friendly page is the best page to display for drivers/spectators.
It has all the pertinent info consolidated into a easy to read screen. You can instantly see how many runs a driver has taken, which was their best (to date), any penalties, it's sorted by class yet you can still see instantly how you compare to other classes ... and all of this info without ever having to click another button and for us very minimal scrolling if any. BOOM - one laptop screen shows it all ... great for event displays.
My thought to get around the non-updating issue is to install a browser plug-in that will just reload the entire page every X seconds, but figured perhaps this was an easy feature request :-)

@JasonPowell I could add a checkbox to enable a auto refresh every 20 seconds. I can't imagine a 45 person event fits entirely within your secondary monitor.
I have a backlog item to create a static display screen, that is live and rotates through different views and meant to be displayed on non-interactive screens (like secondary monitors or TV's)

+1 to this request, or to what you're suggesting, Chris. Anything that we can use to display results in our timing trailer to the public. We would simply throw this on the secondary monitor and people could view it whenever they want.
It also helps the announcer, as the announcer's screen doesn't have everything right now. He could use a split screen or view the monitor separately so that he can update people on the standings during a break in the action.

I installed a chrome extension to refresh a webpage every X seconds. Works well, unless someone switches the printer friendly screen to say overall vs class ... upon auto-refresh it loads the initial page again :-)
I'll test it at this Saturday's event.- Michiana BMWCCA Autocross Chair 2014-current
