    Sorry I could not find a TAG for 'feature' so I used question.

    I think it would be helpfull if when we invalid a lap it should not dissapears, just getting red indicating it's an invalid lap, as sometimes even invalidating it's still usefull to see the laptime.

    thanks!

    Use a telemetry tool a lot save all lap times

    I mean I use a few dashboards that get feed via sharedmemory -> simhub
    It would be fine, but the lap is also erased from the shared memory.
    An using a telemetry app just to see valid/invalid laptimes is quite overkill.

    If you just want to see the lap time after youre done with a stint (and dont need sector times or whatever) you can find them in the setup page (on the left hand side where you can choose 2 laps to compare top speed, fuel use etc. In there all lap times are saved, even invalid ones. However i feel like sometimes the lap times there are a tiny bit different than whats shown on the normal timing screen)

    No, it's sometimes we are in a good lap, or feel like it, but if we cannot know at the end if it was actually a good one sometimes only because of very slight offtrack.

    I absolutely agree with that. It's one of those very few "features" of Raceroom that I don't like, and I don't see the reason why it's like that. Every other sim still shows you your laptime and delta and it doesn't break anything...

    For me it's not about laptimes (they are invalid anyway, I don't care), it's about delta. But judging by Andi's answer, that's exactly what can't be changed?
