BoP Lab / Buttonwillow Raceway Park

SRF vs FB vs F6 vs BSpc pace at Buttonwillow Raceway Park

Lap times across years say as much about the weather as the class. % of SRF is each class's best lap as a share of SRF's on the same day, so the conditions drop out: 100% is level, less is quicker, and a move in it is the class getting faster or slower against the field.

Quickest here: SRF 1:44.060 Vince Balch, Super Tour Apr 2017 qualifying · FB 1:38.870 Gary Hickman, Super Tour Apr 2018 race · F6 1:59.670 Jeff Jorgenson, Super Tour Feb 2024 race

About this data

Best is the class's fastest lap in that event's qualifying or race sessions, with the driver who set it, how many cars set a time that session and how close the top five were; a best from fewer than three cars is greyed. With two or more classes, "vs" is the gap of each class's best to the first class's at the same event. "% of SRF" is the class's best as a share of SRF's best at the same event (100% is level, less is quicker): weather and track condition move every class together, so this compares across years where the raw times do not. It still breaks when SRF's own field changes or one session was wet and another dry. Newest event first. The coloured figure under each value is the change from the previous event that has one (green is quicker, red slower). Whole laps only, so events with different sector layouts still compare. Weather and track condition are not accounted for.
