A point of clarification about the screenshot I posted above...

I am only using a DTV range of -7.5 to +7.5. That's because the DTV Settings radio buttons work in conjunction with the pointers on the Range scale. The range is set to -15 to +15 and I'm using 50% of that, thus the -7.5 to +7.5.

If you wanted to use ALL of the DTV to adjust the raw times, you would move the range pointers out to their maximum, i.e. -50 and +50, AND select the radio button "Use 100% of DTV."

Ted recommended the more modest settings. Having once produced my own speed figures and aware of how much track speed can vary from day to day (or even from early card to late card), I thought his recommendation sound.

Having stated that, I should also add that there's at least one highly successful Sartin veteran (rmath) who has posted that he uses all of the DTV for the track(s) he plays.
