Potential For Human Error: Something To Consider When Picking A Team Name…

On page 103 of the October 2004 issue of Roadracing World, a report on the WERA National Endurance Series 6-Hour at Summit Point is headlined “Velocity Crew Wins…”

A photo caption on the same page refers to “Velocity Crew…”

A hint of the problem with that is provided by the opening sentence of the race report, which starts out “Team Velocity Racing’s…”

The overall race win and 1st in the Heavyweight Superstock class were taken by Team Velocity Racing. Velocity Crew Racing, another team in the series, took 5th overall and won in the Mediumweight Superbike class.

Roadracing World regrets and apologizes for the error, which was made in the editing and layout process, after reporter Beth Wyse turned in her report.

Team Velocity Racing, not Velocity Crew Racing.

We’ll try not to make that error again, but really, is a little originality in team names too much to ask?
