Moreover, I've driven at 9 venues and none of them offered any opportunity to "cut" or otherwise "improve" my laptimes without very serious consequences like possibly launching the car into air, breaking suspension and/or wheels, rolling, wrecking, etc. I suspect a vast majority of venue are like this. I suspect only a handful of venues in N America offer an issue of track limits.
Who knows, it may only be COTA due to a specific F1 design with large flat run outs.

I would hope like heck, that 100% of us would not offer a time where an unfair advantage was gained and made us look like a hero. And let's make no mistake, this was not really the case here, as a video was offered, commented on and retracted.
We can all err folks We are all long term members here, who have helped each other and many other members with variety of info and advice over the years. Let's keep our community together!!!

As far as COTA, or any other track that possibly "offers" track limit advantages, let's request a video, so folks can see what lines were taken and draw their own conclusion. Or, establish a standard based on a given series and ensure a vid is provided to uphold the claim. And who knows, this issue might be limited to COTA only? Happy to be corrected here. Cheers!

Well said. I didn't get a chance to see the video, but this thread is designed to be fun and help each other out to know what a "good lap time is" at any given track in the country. I typically verify the lap time, and have even watched video's to see if I could get a more accurate time than listed (for example, when someone only lists the lap time to the tenth, I'll watch to see if the video shows the lap time to the hundredth) but I haven't policed many videos here because that is not what this thread is about. With that being said, if you know you're cutting the track I'd hope you wouldn't count that as your fast lap.

Let's keep this thread fun and light hearted, as it was meant to be a reference thread and not an "official timing" thread.

Thanks everyone
