8:30:30 8:32:12.09 01:42.09 102
8:33:00 8:34:43.56 01:43.56 104
8:42:00 8:43:12.23 01:12.23 72
8:44:00 0:00:00.00

START FINISH ELAPSED POINTS

From the above example, is there a formula that can find the slowest time( 01:43.56) + 10% or 20% of the above elapsed times and the can be converted to points. (Automatically)

MAX applied to the elapsed times would give you the slowest time.

What is the conversion formula that you want to apply?

That was what i was asking, if there is a formula that can convert to slowest time(of the times shown) + 10% or even 20% with the result being a whole number.

How did you arrive at 102, 104, and 72?

Try the following formula:

=ROUND(C3*1.1*86400,0)

If Cell C3 has the slowest time, then the formula will add 10%, convert it to a number, and then round it to the nearest whole number.

Seems to be rounded minutes.

Aladin,

I think he converted the time to seconds.

You may want to look at Rank

=RANK(C1,$C$1:$C$8,1)

You can then assign points based on the rank.
You did not say how you assign points.

Say there are 8 people and the fastest gets
8 points and slowest 1; the following assigns points and considers ties.

=AVERAGE((8-D1+1),(8-(D1+COUNTIF($D$1:$D$8,D1)-1)+1))

I'm using this for motorsport ralling.

That is corect, I converted time to seconds.

Then if a driver arrives at a stage late or does not complete a stage, the penalties.

Slowest time + 10%(in a group) = ???
Slowest time + 20%(in a group) = ???

+ 10% is failure to complete a stage
+ 20% is failure to attemp a stage

So within a group of four driver's and one does not (complete or attemps at stage). I was wondering if there is a formula that can work that out.

I was going to suggest ranking as did Dave Patton. If that's not satisficing, you'd want to explain 10% and 20% of what must be added and to what? What is a stage?
