We successfully tested a new automated report generator this past weekend at the IMSA Continental Tire 150 at the Glen. Drivers can look at their lap time distributions and compare them relative to the session’s fastest driver.
Below is a sample of the lap times from the GS class drivers in the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge race.
Phoenix American Motorsports did well “with the #32 Ford Mustang Boss 302R driven by Kurt Rezzetano and Andrew Aquilante finishing 5th in the race, after also qualifying 5th. The #35 car, driven by Preston Calvert and John Yarosz started 17th, and finished 18th, after surviving the aftermath of a serious multi-car mid-pack incident ahead of it in the run to the first turn at the start.”
From the charts, we see that …
- Andrew Davis had the fastest lap time (2:01.790) during the race and was able to drive 5 laps within 0.5 seconds of that time, plus an additional 3 laps between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds of the fastest time.
- Andrew Aquilante’s best time was only 6/10 ths of a second off the fastest lap time and was able to drive 3 laps between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds of 2:01.790.
- Kurt Rezzetano was about 1 second off the fastest lap time, with 5 laps between 1.0 and 1.5 seconds of the fastest time. Note though, he only drove 9 green laps and 8 yellow laps.
- Preston Calvert’s fastest was about 3.3 seconds off the fastest lap time. If we created a “theoretical best lap” of just his best sector times, he would have a 2:04.497 lap time.
