Well, JC is biased incarnate, but that has nothing to do with the PowerLaps.

The times are inconsistent though. Look at the Wiki page with all the subtexts. Wet labs, mildly moist laps, ice laps, TC off or on laps, etc etc. The 4 second rule is a ultra vague and unrealistic.

Thank you

QFT.

Laptimes needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. Too many variables that can change the laptimes.
