Each 0.001 change of index results in a 0.05 second time difference in a 50 second course, so we're mostly talking about pretty small changes.

Stephen am I reading something wrong?
2017 (http://solotime.info/pax/rtp2017.html) - SSP PAX = 0.862
2016 (http://solotime.info/pax/rtp2016.html) - SSP PAX = 0.872
That means PAX went down by 0.01 which is a good thing (easier) is it not ???
-
Every class PAX got easier compared to AM this year by an average of 0.012.
Steve's list shows how your PAX changed relative to each other after that 0.012 has been removed.
So, for example:
SSP PAX dropped 0.010 (0.002 less than the average)
BS PAX dropped 0.013 (0.001 more than the average)
Thus, SSP got harder compared to BS.
-
The numbers Stephen posted are relative to the average increase applied to AM - which was .012. Since AM never actually increases - it's always 1.000 - then all other classes got easier by .012 and were then adjusted accordingly. So because SSP only got easier by .01 it actually got harder by .002 ........relatively - the difference between -.012 and + .002.
Not confusing at all right?
Using real numbers compared to AM (the theoretical perfect run) and AS (often the guy to beat)
Using 2016 PAX....
AM = 50 seconds
SSP = 50 / .872 = 57.339 pax time
AS = 50 / .833 = 60.024 pax time
So SSP has to beat AS by 2.685 raw for equal pax
Using 2017 PAX....
AM = 50 seconds
SSP = 50 seconds / .862 = 58.005
AS = 50 seconds / .819 = 61.050
So SSP has to beat AS by 3.045 raw for equal pax
So relative to last year on a 50 second course SSP has to go .36 faster raw to equal AS pax. Part of that coming from AS getting relatively softer and part from SSP relatively harder.
Right about now I wish I'd sold my CSP Miata and bought an AS Vette :o
-
Yeah CSP got hit pretty hard. I'm shocked FS didn't get harder.
I picked a bad year to race the GTR (SM) again, maybe its time to put it back to stock and run in SS. Hey Paul, do you want to buy a bunch of GTR parts?

Thanks gents that makes sense now.

So should we jus give Cam the 2017 PAX trophy and be done with it ;D

That's one option........beating him is another :P

It's all KJ and Marshall's fault! :)

Rumour was that PedalFaster would be in a.....https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=19LvHIb_PNs
....so maybe not yet! Gonna be fun to watch. ;D

I'm trying to get back into a Corvette, but the one I was going to buy fell through. Currently on the hunt for another...

Here's a niffty spread sheet to calculate PAX nos.
Have at 'er:

You all know that this is gibberish to me, As far as the parts go Tom, I'm thinking again about selling and try something else next year. If that doesn't work out then yes I,ll come calling. As far as Cam goes, Pax for him should be using only one hand (and possibly a blindfold). P

I hear my old car should be a fair bit faster next year, looking forward to seeing it run at some point. Definitely will be a tougher class though...

We will see, noticed a number of people in the club getting faster throughout the season, so could be a different story next year...

Now this is confusing: the indexes were just *re*released with changes. Specifically, SS, CS, FS, and HCS were changed from the first numbers released three days ago.
Relative to the average -0.012 change:
Class Original change New change
SS -0.002 0.003
CS 0.001 0.003
FS 0.000 0.002
HCS -0.001 0.004
-
Yup, moved my car to STF so of course STF gets hit again this year :(

Anyone have a golf balled Fiesta ST they want to sell me for $10000-12000?
