Track Difficulty
Back to XTG Home Page

Basically since just after I started racing each extreme track I thought it would be a good idea to keep
a record of the race time for the 8 laps I was racing.

I wasn't sure I would do anything more than just have it in the track info pages, but I had an idea.
There is a need to show how hard a track is to race on compared to the fastest lap time I could do.
So each track I have raced on to get a fastest lap time I have kept a note of the race time.
There is a need to show in a number how hard/difficult a track is. Which I have noticed that a few
occasions I have been lucky and done 1 good lap time but the rest have been much longer. A track
like this is usually very hard and usually only luck will help you. I thought the flow % would
suffice but there was still a question in my mind that the flow number is not the whole storey.
Basically flow comes from the fastest lap time. This then and disregards the other 7 laps. and so
the race time for 8 laps can hide the overall difficulty of the track.

This I have named on my site is called Track Difficulty.
This is a measure of the difference in lap time for the other 7 laps compared to the fastest laps time.
The main aim is to have the difference in lap time as a percentage of the fastest lap time.

( ( ( Race Time - Fastest Lap Time ) divided by 7 ) -Fastest Lap Time ) divided by Fastest Lap Time
