Time = Speed

Yes. Very well presented indeed.

However, perhaps Thaskalos maybe you or anyone else would care to comment about why Speed figures are better than final times. Or are they?

After all when I watch a marathon and one runner comes in 2 hours and 10 minutes and another runner is 2 hours and 15 minutes I know who is the fastest.
Also when I see a kid has ran a 100 yard dash in 11 seconds I know he's not as fast as a kid who just ran it in 10.5 seconds without actually seeing them run.

We don't put "Speed Figures" on any other type of racing except horses?
Why aren't raw times good enough?
