2018–2019 Methodology Note · ARP-Derived How 2018 TrueLapScore standings differ from 2020–present

NASCAR's lap-by-lap lap-times.json feed begins in 2020. For 2018 and 2019, TrueLapScore points are reconstructed from NASCAR's official post-race timing feed (live_feed.json / Loop Data Average Running Position and Laps Completed) using the mathematical identity TLS Points = round((Laps Completed + 1) × (Cars in Field + 1 − ARP)).

Because NASCAR's Loop Data samples running position across multiple track timing loops each lap rather than solely at the start/finish line, 2018–2019 race totals can vary by ~0.1%–0.3% (typically 1–15 points per race) from start/finish-only lap scoring, and lap-by-lap Top-5/Top-10 lap counts are not available.

Three ways to measure this race

	Official winner	TLS leader	Best ARP
Driver	Tyler Reddick # (#9)	Elliott Sadler (#1)	Elliott Sadler (#1)
Finish	P1	P2	P2
TLS points	4,509	4,642	4,642
ARP	9.69	8.76	8.76
Laps led	11	2	2

Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.

Official winner — Tyler Reddick # (#9): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 11 laps with 9.69 average running position and 4,509 TLS points.

TLS leader — Elliott Sadler (#1): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (4,642 points). Finished P2 with 2 laps led and 8.76 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (8.76). The official winner ran a worse average position (9.69).

The checkered flag reflects who survived the final seconds. TLS reflects where drivers ran across the whole race. ARP tells you the typical running spot — but not who banked the most valuable laps.
