It might also stop anonymous whingers on the forums about top runners cheating in championship races.
No doubt its either not possible, expensive or just against the thos of the sport but I thought I'd throw the thought into the den all the same. Bring on the lions.....
Surely it can't be that different from sport - ident!!!
