Hi all,

After spending quite a few years emailing .lap files to people, I've made my collection available online here.

If you have suggestions or contributions, please let me know and I will add them.

I hope it helps.

Charles

Hi Charles,

I see you have posted three LAP files for Oulton Park. I need one for this weekend for the Island circuit and am not sure if one of these would suit? Having not yet been round Oulton Park I have no data that I can load in to the Analysis software to then be able to load the LAP file to find out.

Many thanks,

Bob.

Hi Bob,

As long as the sectors cross the circuit it doesn't matter so much which one you use. I honestly can't remember, but as two are labelled 'International' I would start with the 'Oulton Park.lap'. Sorry my labelling wasn't better, I note that one is from 2010!

When I have (3S) or (4S) after the name, that represents the number of sectors. Generally in my later .lap files I've reduced the sectors. When using laps in live timing, I find fewer sectors better. For analysis, you can debate whether you wants lots of detail / variability or a higher level view.

Hope it helps.

Charles
