Gap is the driver's best lap in a session against the fastest lap in their class in that same session (zero is fastest in class), shown as time lost and as a share of the lap, so conditions cancel out and tracks can be compared. Typical is the median session.

EP Classify Nissan (Datsun) PL 510 in EP
#34463 from Randall Smart · Not recommended · Minutes (2023-12 Fastrack)
Thank you for your letter. This chassis was never sold in the US with a 1.8L engine, nor did a prior classification ever exist that
could be re-instated, and the current direction for the Production Category is to not create any new full-prep classifications. Due
these points, creating this classification is not recommended.
