I think it's party because so much of the course was full throttle or nearly full throttle. I also only improved 0.1 sec in my afternoon runs over my morning runs.

Aside of the slalom, there were only 3 or 4 cones that you needed to get right and the rest of it was sort balls to the wall, let's hope it doesn't turn my tires into smoke kinda driving. Once you get those cones right, and since the car doesn't grow in power (though it would be nice ), it's difficult to go faster.

Vu! One of your runs came through on my data logger. Here it is. I don't have precise start and end points, so it shows a bit more than the real course. The red line is your vehicle speed and the blue line is the lateral g. It does show your top speed, corner speed and that you're reaching 1.0 lateral g's!

Bonus gg plot which plots your longitudinal g's versus your lateral g's at the same instant in time.

The Nov. 1 event is sold out (you can get on the wait list though). I checked on the first day it was open to non-members (last week I think) and it was sold out. I think I'll join the GGLC next year - it is only $25 and gives you first shot at registration along with a $10 discount for each event.
