It gets a driver nowhere faster than ever (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
lap record
'driver nowhere faster than ever' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'it gets a' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is present in the answer.
'a' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for lap record that I've seen is " Best all-round performance".)
