I was checking the accuracy of my performance files and physics against the real data of the 2011 season so far, based on the polesitters Q3 quali time of each race compared to cc-cars in quali mode with fuel for 3 laps in ace level in GP4 and came up with this:

I think you would agree, that the results are a good match, with the exception of a couple of (new) tracks, displayed in italics. I suppose that has something to do with the tracks magic data, so i would like to ask KTC (if i'm not mistaken, they are all his dat-files) to take himself a look at the issue, because i don't like to mess with other peoples work and i don't have a clue of track making!!
If i'm wrong and this is not a matter of magic data, then i would have another look at it!
Note: the Interlagos comparison is based on the 2007 and 2008 lap times, because the newer ones were rain affected and therefore not suitable for comparison.
