Here is something useful I made for everyone
Post by tx3000 on Aug 12th, 2003, 7:15pm
I thought everyone could benefit from this time sheet I created. I wanted to post this up on the board so that others may print it out and use it. Whether people want to use it for personal use, sending in thier times, or even if they don't want to use it at all, it's here for everyone benefit. So have fun, and feel free to let me know how you like it. 
__________________________________________________________________________________________
HOW TO USE THIS SHEET:
A) Enter which vehicle you used on the main track after the first V and the vehicle you did the fastest lap with after the second V: V:____V:____
B) Enter total track time on this line: (T): __’ ___"___
C) Enter fastest lap on this line: (FL): 0’___"___
D) I made multiple time slots on the championship track, just in case you beat your previous time.
That way, you don't have to keep printing out a new sheet, every time you beat your old time.
E) To put this sheet on to Microsoft Word, Go in to page set up, and make the top and the bottom margins 0.2" and the left and right sides 0.3". This is the measurement that I used to initially create this sheet. Of course you will need to take the dotted lines out and do a little straightening out. But that is really simple to do.

Just keeping this post up on the first page for easy access!!

It looks nice yet I don't know what I'd use it for. Have you visited the rankings pages and such? What I do is just print out my times page and then compare each time I update.

The main reason I designed this sheet like this is so that you can refer back to the lap times as well. Unless you write the lap times down and which track they were done on, when they are on the screen, you have no way of looking at them up again, just in case you needed to for some reason. This sheet is all ready made out for you so all you need to do is fill it in.
Myself personally, I like seeing and comparing not just my track totals, but my lap times as well.
With this sheet, I can see where I need to improve, and what Lap(S) I could have done better on.

Well, I don't know if you looked at my walkthroughs, but the reason I started them was to get target times to shoot for on each lap. I wrote all mine down.
However, most of the time, laps 2-5 are (or should be) exactly the same anyway, since I boost at exactly the same place each lap. Only certain ones did I deviate from that. If that's what it's for then it could indeed be helpful! Thanks.

@tx3000,
I did a comparable sheet myselves, however I preferred a horizontal arrangement of the lap times, i.e. (Pawn 1, FC Training):
P1: __"__-__"__-__"__-__"__-__"__ _'__"__ FC Tr
[repeat for all tracks]
Note I didn't include the redundant 0' for the lap times. This makes up for a more compact design.
Greetings,
Michael

To keep track of my times I've always used something like this;
Series. Course - Circuit: 5-Lap Date/1-Lap Date
Mode: 5-Lap - Machine (Splits)
Mode: 1-Lap - Machine
Example:
B2. Ancient Mesa - Skating: Nov 01/Feb 02
GP: 1'43"52 - JV (24"58 20"98 20"09 18"78 19"09)
TR: 0'17"77 - JV
If I get a time in Training with the Wind Walker as my opponent I change GP or TR to WW.
This way keeps all the info I need and it can easily be edited for other games (like FZX and MKSC).
