Jeff,

From what I know, you are selective in the type races and the tracks that you play, which is all good and well.

If you were to query these type races at WOX with a program that could do this, you would find that the top (first 3) "TPR" numbers would have a negative ROI. I believe the 4th rating is positive and with that you won't get rich because it is minimal and not worth the effort.
Overall and in all type races this definitely holds true.

Fast4522 Jcapper is quite refined and it bears a $700 price tag the last I read. which is all relative in relationship quality and what other products are selling for. In the case of $100 per year versus $700 one time many things you would consider, for me it is the data provider where Trackmaster is not the prefered vendor on a per file basis. Against the $120 per month data providers it wins hands down no bs involved, on that note its really who you are and how it fits your style, to me I am just a per file guy who is not going to consider $120 per month for data period, with that who does the best against the $120 number is the bargain in my books.
The cost of $700 is well justified if you play on a daily basis. The money you will save on data files ( $ 1.00 BRIS files and $ 0.25 XRD files) as opposed to
The newly proposed Trackmaster files and the yearly cost of a lease program. If you are a casual player the cost of the Trackmaster files will be more costly. Figure out what your costs would be over a year or two and convince yourself which is more prudent. Always taking into consideration as to which software is more flexible, accurate and has more overall utility for your individual purposes.

I wasn't aware that Jeff used the TPR numbers in JCapper.
From what I've read while doing the demo and using the "help docs". Total Pace was derived from TPR. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
