I started doing the math on the M6 fast list to find the difference in 60' times between the two and I messed up like three times...... before I realized that their is no #7 car listed ? Anyone else notice that too ??
Eliminating the M6 runs with the missing 60' and the 13.179.

Average 60' time are...
A8 - 1.868 sec
M6 - 2.042 sec
delta = 0.174 sec

Average 1/4 time are
A8 - 12.172 sec
M6 - 12.438 sec
delta = .266 sec
