{{Power Laps|series=Series 2}} After [[Series 2, Episode 4]] aired, lap times featuring track-oriented cars were disqualified and the [[Pagani Zonda]] was reinstated as the fastest car around the track. However, [[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}/Power Laps#Disqualifications|this ruling]] was not disclosed until later on, so there are two boards for this series; one with track-oriented cars retained, and another with them removed.
{{Power Laps|series=Series 2}} After [[Series 2, Episode 4]] aired, lap times featuring track-oriented cars were disqualified and the [[Pagani Zonda]] was reinstated as the fastest car around the track. However, [[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Power Laps#Disqualifications|this ruling]] was not disclosed until later on, so there are two boards for this series; one with track-oriented cars retained, and another with them removed.


Furthermore, this ruling is inconsistent; cars that were initially removed such as the [[Caterham Superlight]] and [[Ariel Atom]] would later have valid lap times put on the board, despite the cars being the same as they were before.

This is an entirely arbitrary categorisation based on the notion that in order to qualify, a car must be fully road-legal and be able to drive over most speed humps.
