I asked Speed Junkie if he saw a improvement when he upgraded his device to an iPad Pro, and he was able to get pretty much the same times and performance as he had with an older generation iPad. Given that, there likely isn't that much of device difference unless you are on a really old or really under-powered device. One curious thing I noted last week was that for the first day or so after 7.4 was released I was group D in WTTT (i.e. before Android versionwas released). I remained in a similar relative position for over a day. Then after Android version was released, I gradually started moving up and ended in C. So my thought is that either better drivers tend to use iOS devices or iOS version might be quicker. Of course, there may be other explanations like less frequent racers (noobs?) didn't participate in WTTT so quick.

However, the lack of Android version for >24 hours seemed to effect my WTTT position in a different way to other weeks. Simply a numbers game.

Small sample size will skew your percentile. If only the top ten players ever competed, then the second best time would be in Group D as they would be in the 90th percentile....
