Well, a properly timed skid pad would be run as follows: you have two
circles connected at a point, basically making a figure-8. The car starts
at the center where the two circles meet, goes right first and goes
around that circle twice: once to get up to speed, and the second time
around as the actual timed measurement, then the car would go around the
left circle, once to settle in, and a second lap to be timed, then leave
the skid pad at the center, opposite where it started and it would be
timed from the center point, where the circles meet, so again, power
wouldn't make a difference.
