So how does our PIRS system measure up? We have more racers most of the time and the times are closer or pretty darn close in the spread of qualifying. Qualifying shows what a car and driver can do when he has a fairly clear track and can extract the max out of the car and himself and is indicative of how close or far that driver is off the pace.
