I was wondering if it's possible to have turnpoints before the "start". Meaning, that the "start" could be the second or third turnpoint instead of the first one.

On Hang/Paragliding events, one usually fly some distance, not racing, in order to get from the takeoff to the start cylinder. Sometimes it's quite significant (+10k). So it's "nice" to see the "whole" flying distance of the task, different from the "racing distance" (the start of speed section to the end of speed section as we like to call it).

Also it would be nice to have a "End of Speed Section" before the "goal" or last turnpoint, in order to calculate "task speed" and see "task time" on analysis. So when you land you can see how fast you flew the "speed section" regardless the time and distance before the start and the time / distance after the end of speed section (usually 1 or 2 km from the end to the goal field).
