Gap is the driver's best lap in a session against the fastest lap in their class in that same session (zero is fastest in class), shown as time lost and as a share of the lap, so conditions cancel out and tracks can be compared. Typical is the median session.

FP FP VW Rabbit/Convertible 1.6L Prep Level 1

#26642 from Jack Banha · Not recommended · Minutes (2019-05 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. The request to allow a 1.8L head onto the VW 1.6L in FP is not
recommended. The car is competitive with the complete 1.6L engine, and parts appear to be
available.
