Driver Practice Average Speed
10/10/2008 6:53 AM

Dear Racing One:
From time to time I see the Top Five Average Speed stats for practice. I would really like it if you could post the stat on a regular basis. I would even like to see if you could expand it to the top 10 or the entire field. I think the average practice speeds are a clear predicter of how drivers are going to do in the race (barring wreck) both good and bad. I think the one lap top speed stat is very misleading. I would rather see a complete listing of Practice Average Speeds.

Take a look at the last time Racing One listed Top Five Average Speed for final practice. I think it was New Hampshire. Biffle won, Bowyer 12th, Truex 7th, Hamlin 9th, Labonte 13th.

I'd be willing to bet that the top 10 averages from final practive will produce between 5 to 7 of the top 10 finishers and the winner 8 out of 10 races.

Your consideration is appreciated!
