Taylor Gray Continues to Progress

Taylor Gray is 19, in what Lap Raptor calls his age 18 season (Lap Raptor seasonal ages based on a driver's age on February 15). He's been driving trucks since his age 15 season. Look at these monotonically improving stats since his debut:

  • ARP: 20.81 → 14.84 → 12.26 → 11.28
  • AFP: 22.6 → 20.5 → 14.55 → 11.65
  • Success rate: 40% → 50% → 70% → 75%
  • PFAE: -3.155 → 2.976 → 3.842 (since 2021)

Here in year four, I think we've become numb to him to a degree, perhaps because we expect top prospects to graduate after two or three. Gray, having started so early, is an exception to that expectation. He has tremendous upside.
