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.

#28211 from Jim Mali · Taken care of · Minutes (2020-03 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. Please see the responses to letters #28044 and #28047 in the February 2020
Fastrack Minutes. The provision for probation relates to the issue of whether a class with fewer than ten
entries may crown a National Champion (see GCR section 3.7.4.C.2), not to the process of incorporating
an underperforming class into another class. Please however note that Formula Mazda's low
participation numbers in 2018 were posted on the SCCA's website and provided competitors with a full
year's notice of the need to improve the class's participation level in accordance with the requirements
of GCR section 9.1.13.A.
