Derek,
10/10ths to me is 0.1/10 before I wreck. Some pros can drive nearly 10/10ths
lap after lap. Some guys manage to wreck at their 7/10s. 9/10ths is a
competitive race pace. Yours may be faster than mine, but when either of us
exceeds our own 10/10ths, it is called a wreck. It is possible to exceed
10/10ths and not crash. That is a "save" and usually the result of more luck
than skill.
