So they did and on run#2 she had her stereo blasting and was ahead by 12 .76 seconds! Might still be the record for the largest time gap?
At one of our autocrosses we used to hold at a local track a lady showed up in her 1972 911S that she drove up from Dallas. She was a 100 pound lady and friendly. She ended up as FTD for the day. It really upset some of the local hotshoes in their track prepped cars.

She was a real ringer and often won the ladies event at Parade. Her 911 was set up to perfection by her professional mechanic husband. I will not mention her name on a public forum.
