Thank you. Fixed.

@Dan_Tes , @crome ,@half_sourly ,
I appreciate your kind winds and insights.
It is true that it does not take as large an effort as it once did to accomplish "Gold", indeed sometimes almost no effort at all.
Imposter syndrome is probably as close to an accurate description of how I feel as a non-mental health professional could get.

I imagine that there are multiple things that play into my perceptions concerning results.

The 80/20 rule, wherein you can achieve the 80th percentile at something with only a 20% effort, but the last 20% requires 80% of the effort.

The insane times that the very best accomplish. Although the average results of my last 10 time trials are better than 99.6% of those who posted a time, the time differential is still 1.65% off of the number 1 times. That is not even half way between "achieving gold" and the top. I am aware that this is why they are called 'aliens', but my mindset has always been that there is no sense in doing anything with the intention not to do your very best.

The realization that my advancing age(68) is closing the window rapidly on any attempt to get better.

Again, thank you to everyone who has pushed, dragged, kicked, badgered and humiliated me into this much progress.
And thanks to those who have encouraged, offered tips/insights and been generally supportive.

Regards,
Ken

You are fast dude. This place really skews the chart!

Here are some statistics for TT113 at Autopolis International Racing Course in the Dodge Viper SRT10 Coupe '06. L-Shooter_RB26 made his usual late lunge to the top. It remained a middle of the road TT though in difficulty, although driven by non-gold metrics rather than gold, which was tougher than usual to get.

• Well done to @A_Higher_Place @Ian JB @zxr96 on personal best placings.

I was fortunate to just hang on in front of you.

Here are some statistics for TT114 at 24 Heures du Mans Racing Circuit in Gr.1, a surprisingly tough one, especially given the results of the previous Gr.1 event here (where any Gr.1 could be used). Clearly the older Group C cars are more of a handful.

Notice how the gold 'peak' is after the line - people caught out by Iceman's late charge.

Congrats to all brave contestants and special greetings to those with am medal! Well done!

I had to do a personal best placing to get gold in this TT, I don't discard that in Catalunya Rally Cross I will do another personal best placement, but getting only silver haha.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Thanks @half_sourly - Le Mans was epic. Very pleased with the result - 12th I think is the highest I've been on the GTP leaderboard, 14th in the US and 2nd fastest Porsche in the world is quite a cool thing.

Almost; you were 7th in TT107 and 10th in TT108.

Ran all 4, I own, of the 5 cars for TT114 but I just could not flog that Datsun through the turns well enough to make that 12MPH straight line advantage over the Porsche pay off.

Thank @half_sourly for keeping up with all this data. I have some small skill with Excel and Google sheets and yours is a bonfire to my candle flame.
