It helps if you overlay them by distance rather than time.

It also looks like he's making almost all of his extra time between the corkscrew and the final turn before the straight.

yeah that would help. You and richard are both pretty close till you get to the corkscrew. Richard kicks your ass (figuratively since they're totally differnt cars) down the hill tho He also gets going faster over the hill than you w/o the SC.

I think you're both going thru 6 too slow.

Yeah, conditions were different -- it rained all morning the day I did 46's.

I have DL90 data of those laps; wonder if it can be overlaid with the DL1 data you guys collected.
I tried to load my DL1 data in the DL90 software and it wouldn't let me. It recognized the version of data logger and stated it was incompatible. If you want to send me your data, I can try to load it in the DL1 software. I don't know if it's backward compatible or not. I've PMed my email address to you.

Richard kicks my ass in my own car too at only 7/10.

Let me change the parameters in the software.

Interesting. Looks like I was going through 6 at around 80, but I agree I should be going faster. I was trying to brake early and smoothly for every corner to prevent lockup, and apparently my engine was not well.

Its interesting you two arrive at the top of the hill at the same (almost exact) time.

Here's the comparison relative to distance instead of time.

It is Richard's race car vs. my car. I have another run that Richard did in my car. He was only 0.5 seconds faster that time, but again at 7/10 vs. my 8 or 9/10.

I guess this mean that I made up the 6 seconds in just the corkscrew to start/finish? Wow, doesn't look so dramatic on the graph.
