The blue line is engine RPM. Like I said above, I was under 6000 rpm most (all) of the time. Lots more legs left...

The red line is lateral G's. Maximum positive (right) was 1.4, maximum left was 1.

It's interesting to look at it after the fact, it shows me two things... one - I was being way to easy on it and two - there is a lot of potential left in the car.
That's COOL!
