It was easy, however, to simply move the new point to the east from where it had been placed
I then used 'complete speed' which allowed me to place it the correct distance east of point 1350 in the first new final point,
For the second new point, I did the same thing, again to the east of -79.4131989.
As the car was moving east between positions 1349 and 1350, I would have expected '1351 to be at -79.4132310, 43.7621840 if the time changed by 1 second, and at -79.4132080, 43.7621840 if the time changed by 2 seconds, since I expected the new final point to be added using the direction of movement of the prior two points and the time interval of the prior two points, 1349 and 1350.
I suspect that deleting those final points before inserting new points is the cause of the 'westbound' direction of the new point when it should have been eastbound. If instead it is simply sticking the point in what it thinks is the center of the map, rather than using the direction and speed of travel to add a new point, it is defeating the purpose of a new final point to my way of thinking.
I moved the FIRST new point to the correct location and then I added a new final point after it. It too was placed at the same point on the hybred map as the first new point, but the time was increased by 3 seconds instead of the 1 second between 1349 and 1350 or the 2 seconds between 1350 and the first new point
I simply dragged that second final point to the bottom of the garage ramp, which is where the track should end. The speeds, when I had the program calculate that field, were fine after I did these manual moves of the newly added points.
Hope that helps you. You already have the file I was using, as it it in the saved attachments under my name, so you can try the same things with your copy.
Does this explanation make what I did clear?
