I like this idea! We all have an idea in our heads of who's done what, just by watching along. But it's nice to see all on one list, and it gives me something to aim for! haha

Good job, Tyler!

it is crazy to see how close together it has gotten. it will be a nice reference in the future to chase down the next spot, even when you may not have close competition on that race weekend. my goal is for this to help motivate people to keep coming out and improving

It is a thorough list and worth noting the fastest fields are populated with a variety of cars. Makes it more interesting!
Thanks for posting this.

if you see any mistakes or want to add info to a ranking comment below

My entry is listed as an RX8, but any times for 2023 events were set in an '07 Toyota Camry in "GT" class.

My RX8 hasn't made an appearance since 2021!

This is great Tyler! This has been missing in local Time Attack and end of the day this is why we do this. 

Now we just need to make a sticky at the top. People seeing records like this are more motivated to get out there and make a push for it. 

Cant wait to get back out and get into the top 10..........or 5 ;)

I like the sound of those goals. When I put the 2021 results in it will be a little harder. wanna say I noticed 3 or 4 between 1.00 and 1.03 that aren't on the list yet

Can we go back to version 1?... I've lost 5 places in the standing.  :)   BTW, car is a '19 VW Golf R.  I like that this is a raw time record.  Its about the only time I really understand.  All the algorithms for class, mods, etc., go straight over my head.

Damn, I don't think my Viper lap came up because I was not actually registered that day, I was racing the Veloster that weekend and I cooked the brakes so they let me run it on Sunday as part of TA but not competing.

personally I would be fine with counting this as record time for your car. You did it at a Wscc event with transponder. maybe I will make a poll and see what others think. I stand to gain from this lol. I'm all for any session the transponder is on being included in the record list. maybe as long as a form of proof like your photo is provided we can make some exceptions to help build the list. then going into the 2024 season I will see if I can get the timing sheets to include the morning  practice sessions so we catch any potential pb's that happen outside of the competition result sheet also.

Those morning laps are done in prime fastest lap conditions so good idea.

Can we get this pinned at the top? Most of us do this to see how we stack up. Tyler did the hard work of pulling it all together, let’s get it pinned.

The timing sheets do include the practice /warm-up session. However, I personally don't think anything but a competition lap should be listed on there.

Personal bests mean nothing if they have not been set in the heat (literally!) of the competition. Pulling up some numbers that were obtained during the best of all conditions maybe gives you a record of what you at one time were able to achieve, but it is not the best race lap.

 

As we say back home: "At home all boys have marbles. Bring them out to play if you really have them!"

I believe all the times Tyler put in this list are competition laps.

Thanks for doing this Tyler. I think we should post these results inside the clubhouse (aka TopGear lap times board). This season's final results have been posted and we have a few new personal bests:

Kaycee is now down to 59.187

Richard Coyle has broken the 1:00 barrier a couple of times with a 59.838 best

I don't think Sheldon Fehr beat his person best but he came very close, which is crazy now that he had his car set up for SGT.

Jeremy Norquay in the Civic ran a 1:01.740

I also squeaked out a new PB with a 1:02.764 (new tires but no brakes!) in the 944.

Doug Miller 1:09.994

Dylan Hesom 1:07.574

I did not check everyone. There could be more.

Great suggestion @ron posting a Top Gear style best lap times board.

Thanks to our Amsoil sponsorship, we have transformed the concession into the Amsoil Training Centre and clubhouse. What better way to celebrate personal best times than having those time posted in the clubhouse. And it should encourage friendly competition.

What about road race and open wheel lap records - can we include those as well?

I like your comment about Sheldon going just as fast with his significantly de-modified Elise this year. Just goes to show that you need to be selective in your choice of modifications. As far as your remark about about not having brakes, when you set your PB, just reinforces the fact that brakes slow you down, ha-ha!
