Hey Todd,
I have given some bad coaching over this. Very irritating. I believe it is all related to whatever the GPS glitches are. We have data on some laps of taking a second gear corner at 2x speeds. This problem affects the time gap analysis alot, which is my go to tool.
I don't really know when this problem started, but I am pretty sure it is in recent history. The old system I don't believe did this.
This may be a display and graphing issue, because lap analysis within the segment analysis screens hasn't yet led to wrong conclusions like the overlays. But it is harder to do and we have done less of it.
But so many here have traqmate (often at my prompting until recently), I have been doing a work-around. If you have a chance to try this I would love to hear if you think it addresses the problem or not of the wrong conclusions.
It seems the error is cumulative. I started moving the Start/Finish line around the track to immediately in front of the segment we are evaluating. Doing that often will change the time gap graph from showing that something good happened on a given lap to something bad. Whatever the cumulative error is, seems to not be built up only in a few feet and the analysis of that segment then makes sense from many angles.
Thoughts?
It is an irritating process. First because you shouldn't have to do it, but also because as soon as you move S/F, you have to re-pick your laps because it defaults back to all laps checked if memory serves.
