Once Brian aligns the chicane configuration with the July event and the non chicane config with the Aug event your lap times will drop by at least 3 seconds and probably a little more. And even then I suspect your actual times will be a few additional seconds faster.

The July event is NO Chicane, I think the issue is they both can't be the same name but not sure of that... I just wonder how that prediction got there, only time I ran the Chicane was at a David Murray event last year!

Thanks for clarifying Gary.

Prediction info here, but I suspect you knew that:

+1 on you slowing down!

Similarly, Rennpoints doesn't want to predict any times for me either (except for Putnam). In addition, the system seems to like to put me behind a lot of my buddies. I should probably channel this toward motivation to improve.

I'd be interested to know why this is so hit or miss.

Its just a program that Brian came up with.
I would not put any real weight on the predictions, or lack thereof.
Has a lot of flaws, but who cares.
The predictions are just for fun.

Hell no... I'm predicted 3rd at Road America.
