Default Time for Separate 18m Records?

If were gonna rei-engineer records, Id rather redo all the records according to L/D. Lets say 3 groups: under 28/1, 29-40, above 40 etc. The wingspan don’t mean much when comparing most ships nowadays. A minilak at 13..5 meters can outfly an 18 m open cirrus. And lumping that same mini lak in with a 1-26 isn’t right either lol.
