Brian, I never got it to work, but my handy work can be seen here - in the
end I combined the data from multiple spreadsheets into one, then ran the
dashboard across that, ugly but functional:

http://dashboard.worldsolarchallenge.org/

(Check the Dashboard, the other pages are derivative stats - and the data
is now static.)

Tip for young players, Google Spreadsheets will die if you throw 4 million
people at a page like this. The caching is all-but non-existent. In the
end, I needed to double-cache, a linux web-server got the data from Google,
then my display spreadsheet got it from there.

If you expect to run this out for a large audience you need to look for an
alternative data-source. Fusion Tables was suggested by Google, but during
the Google Developer Day in Sydney I was told any data published in that is
*public*. Google App Engine is a potential alternative that I never
investigated for this solution.

I never said thanks to the people here - we had an event on at the time, so
herewith. Thank you to the combined and individual efforts people in this
forum supplied to get my solution working.
