Sorry, I wasn't clear about it. I know frrt scrapes trackleaders for the underlying data, my point was that the trackleaders javascript code that renders that data into something visible isn't as good as the frrt code. frrt sometimes shows more recent updates than trackleaders (even after refreshing) even though they're effectively using the same feeds.
[EDIT] Now that Bjorn has visited CP3 frrt's distance to finish (DTF) is reporting a much lower figure. Unfortunately it's lower for Bjorn (1518km) than it is for Skinny (1564km) which nicely proves it's not very reliable.

Freeroute gets its data from Trackleaders, it's not an alternative system, just an interface that Ivan has put toghether that makes the data easier to understand, so surprising if it is more up to date.
There definitely seems to be a problem with the data coming through, though.
