I haven't researched this at all.


But I'll venture this guess:

On dirt, deceleration is likely more significant at longer distances

and at the top 20% of class levels which would be present at the major tracks.


One example being:

Majors with class levels of open NW2x and up

vs

minor tracks with beaten and time restricted claimers < $10k and, of course bottom maiden-claimers.
