Nice...

I'll turn that statement into a pun and make this observation - if they would stop using "metrics" and follow "standards" like they are supposed to - they could declare that a woman broke the 10 second barrier in "The Hundred"

100 "METRIC" dash record is 10.49
100 "STANDARD" dash record is 9.91

Life always turns out better for those that are willing to follow standards instead of trying to pander to 'metrics'
