One row per driver and car (a driver who changed cars has a row for each). Each cell is that driver's best in that car across the selected events, with the session it was set in. Best 5-lap stint is the mean of the driver's quickest five consecutive race laps, and consistency is how far their median race lap sat behind their best in that race (small is a driver who does it every lap); both come from the race with the best stint. The fastest in each column is purple, and a car whose best lap is more than 115% of the fastest in its class is greyed (marked ">115%" beside the driver) and left out of the colour scale. Click a column to sort, a row to highlight it. Theoretical lap is the sum of the best sectors, whichever laps they came from, and never slower than the best lap (where a car's fastest laps were recorded without sector times, its best lap is used). The 115% mark is about the car's best lap only: a car whose best lap is within 115% of the fastest in its class is never marked. Greyed sectors with no theoretical lap mean the sector times on file do not add up to a believable lap. Letters refer to the events above; Q is qualifying, R a race.

Sectors

S1 SF → IM1 1.00 mi
S2 IM1 → IM3 1.00 mi
S3 IM3 → SF 0.92 mi
SPd IM2 → IM3 0.02 mi

Sectors are numbered in lap order from start/finish, whatever each event's timing called them; the loop names are SCCA timing's.

addedF5 cars must install AIM part #X47KPFSOLO2R0 data box mount for Majors and Runoffs.

As printed in Fastrack

In F5, GCR section 9.1.1.D, add a new section as follows:
"19. All F5 cars competing in Majors Races and the Runoffs must have the AIM part #X47KPFSOLO2R0 data box mount installed
on the vehicle to provide the necessary mounting of the AIM Solo or Solo 2 data box. The mounting surface is to be approximately
oriented either horizontally or vertically either parallel or perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the car and must be accessible
from the exterior of the car with the driver on board -- it should have a view of the sky and not be located under carbon fiber or
metallic bodywork. Sufficient space should be left between the mounting plate and the surface to which it is attached to permit
the use of zip ties/tie straps to restrain the data box to the mounting plate. The purpose of this requirement is to allow the
random placement of data boxes on cars on pre-grid by SCCA assigned personal and the collection of the box when the car exits
the race track. Contact AIM and their distributors for direct purchase."

What the rules allowed changed as listed; this does not say what any particular car ran.
