Below are the first and second heat times and speeds.

Each driver went down the hill twice, once on the inside of the turn (left lane) and once on the outside (right lane), thus the different times in each heat. We added both runs together and sorted lowest to highest total time to come up with the placing for the Final heat, listed above.

Because of the confusion of "what is the left lane?" during the first three races in the first heat of the kids we did our best to set the correct timing to the racers, and then let them all race in the finals, since we weren't 100% sure of who should race or not.
