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.

Letters to Fastrack

P1 Request Radical SR8 be moved out of GTX to P1

#36883 from Jack Baruth · Not recommended · Minutes (2024-12 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. The Club Racing Board does not recommend this change. The Radical SR8 has a turbocharged engine,
which is not permitted in P1 and will not be permitted in the new Prototype (P) class. In addition, the SR8 is 300 pounds heavier
than the heaviest car in P1 and nearly 800 pounds heavier than the lightest car in the class. This is undesirable from a safety
standpoint. Also, the referenced height differences between cars in the GTX class's run group are not uncommon in other race
groups in the SCCA, and drivers are accustomed to adjusting to this by being more observant when running together.

Supporting Mike Devins, #36742
