Now that we have the data, and have proven that banked track marks are indeed faster than flat tracks by a linear degree, let's apply the NCAA conversion to both leaderboards, and see what the difference is. Then, we can compare those converted marks against the true marks in the final column.
Key Takeaways
One individual event sees the flat track times as superior to the State Leaders. The 600m has superior flat track performances for both the boys and the girls, than the current State Leader set on a banked track
For the relays, both 4x800m's, as well as the Girls 4x400m's run on a flat track are superior to their flat track alternatives.
Although irrelevant to conversions, the 55m State Leader for Girls was run on a banked track, while the 55m for boys was run on a flat track. This illustrates, when those same athletes move to a banked track, the same girls leader for 55m remains State Leader overall in the 300m, but the Boys State Leader for 55m, is not the State Leader for the 300m (he does have the fastest flat track time for 300m).
