Adjusting par times
I have been using Horsestreet Pars the last few years and have been satisfied. I use them as a basis and make adjustments based on the tracks I play regularly. But have a question to throw out to anyone (including Dave)
The difference between the final times of 2 distances at the same tracks seems to stay the same regardless of the class. The splits seems to vary, but not the final times. I'll use an example from the 2010 pars:
AQU M10000 6f par 113.37 6.5f par 120.06 or a difference of 6.69 seconds
AQU GRADED STAKES 6f par 108.45 6.5f par 115.14 difference of 6.69 seconds.
It seems wrong to me that this would be the case. Shouldn't the difference get somewhat smaller as the class rises..like a sliding scale?
