Track Speed Ratings

[JohnB21]

Hello, does anybody have updated harness track speed ratings? I'm using Rays from a few years ago and they seem pretty accurate but was looking for something newer. Thank you

I gave up doing Track Speed Ratings because of the large discrepancy found when trying to find horses of equal caliber or ability at different tracks.
TrackMaster class already has Track Speeds built in and Class ratings like "NW2000L6" are useless.

Here are some Average Final Times (Seconds) for Pacers on track listed "FT"
This is sampled from 2019 to date, I don't have a lot of Hoosier numbers.
Should ignore any track time if less than 100 races at that track.

This is what I use. I haven't updated it in the past couple of years and there are probably tracks on here that don't race anymore, but it seems to work well in my Harness Diamond System. I don't just use average times, I went through races and tried to compare horses using shippers and class. Average times are tricky because the tracks with lower purses have slower horses so they tend to look like the surface is slow, but it isn't. Some of the smaller tracks with low handle, I basically took an educated guess using their best times and a few other races, but for the major tracks, I did more work.
