Sam F Davis: 23.4 / 48 / 112.2 / 144.2 Beyer = 95
One could make an arguement that the competition in KEE that day (Sam P. for one) was much classier than this bunch. Again, other factors considered, I'm having a tough time getting my arms around a 15 point improvement. I thought it would have been closer to 85-88.

You make a very good point, one thing I can offer is that the Tampa racetrack has been particularly slow and yesterday's times in general were slow. I know very little about computing Beyer figures, but I'm certain that track variant is taken into consideration.
