I'm glad to see this around for rF. I rememeber the fun hazing in the GPL
days.

What's the logic on the laps? Why are some counted, and others not? For
example, none of my PCMS2007 laps are in the db.

Tons of errors. It apparently doesn't like the all-cars-and-tracks class. I
did a lot of lapping in ACAT, more than 2750 laps from the career load
screen. I got credit for 53 valid entries. Those are apparently the first
few laps I ran shortly after installing the car mods, when they each set the
class to themselves.

I posted a warmup lap in PMSC just for fun, and it looks like I now hold top
spot with a 9:36 on 24h-fog. Now you've done it. I'll tweak up a hotlap
setup and see where it goes from here. The extra 19 gallons I carried is
good for 15 seconds all by itself.

Are you personally involved with the site and utilities? If I may, I'd like
to offer that the car classes are far too many, and thus fractured. Maybe it
would be good to combine them into just a few groups, as rfactorcentral does
with its Touring, open-wheel, etc. grouping.

Thanks for pointing this up, in any case. (Just what I needed at this point,
yet another obsession.)
