I take it you track a lot? If so are your times dramatically different when conditions are similar. I know I was always very consistent but then again maybe I was just lucky.
Now if you are telling me that different drivers were used then I will concede that the data is less useful as an indicator but even then the difference between two professional drivers is quite slim because these cars aren't stretching their talents. So in otherwords the difference between different days should only be the odd tenth if conditions are similar (i.e. dry).
