Video's of your S on the track
#521
Lapping day today at Vancouver Island Motorsport Circuit (VIMC). Dropped almost two seconds from last time I was there, so that's cool. (Used considerably less fuel too, which is a bit of a head-scratcher.) And I had my first ever real spin on the track, which I fortunately escaped unscathed (although I'll need to vacuum some grass out of the car...) Here are my two identical time fastest laps, and the spin at the end!

Had my first day out with SBG track brake kit up front. Took almost 2 seconds off my personal best and did it towards the end of the day while it was still hot. I remain the weak link in the car.
This was my first time using an external microphone which I inserted in a piece of foam and taped to the black trim at the bottom of the bumper near one of the exhaust outlets. I'm still not happy with the level of wind noise though. I'm thinking the next time I may try leaving it in the trunk. How are those of you using external mics mounting them?

It's really fun, yeah. And not as unforgiving as it looks. The faster corners all have large paved runoffs, and in other areas, like where I went off, it's smooth under that tall grass, and has energy absorbing gravel traps. (The reason I came to a stop right where I did was that both my left wheels went into it.) Still, made for a good reminder of what can happen!

If you have an 06+ you can get brake pedal pressure, steering angle, and TPS over can bus. So any logger that can read can bus should be able to have it configured. If your logger has a can over OBD2 adapter your life is even easier.
See below, sorry for the poor graphic design, I was just testing these overlays.

This video is from earlier in the year. We went to Barber Motorsports Park in Leeds, AL. It was my first time out on track since the K-swap and we had a few niggles with the engine. But once we got those sorted we went out, it poured with rain the whole weekend, but here's a couple of laps.

Is there a bluetooth OBD2 reader that can grab that info and interface with ie RaceChrono? Or would I need a dedicated logger installation?

Interesting. Right now I use an OBDLink MX to read from the OBD2 port, but it doesn't provide brake pressure or steering angle, just throttle, RPM, and various diagnostic channels.

In this video I was logging using a Racecapture Pro datalogger, but I've since moved to an AEM CD5-L to data log.

Decent lap at Mid-Ohio. I was a bit over a second faster last year but my RS4s are about done.
Then I proceeded to deal with this guy for the next few laps. He said he wanted to “make me work for the pass”. This is the advanced group with open passing by point by. He was way slower on entry and as you can see caused me to have “a moment”. On exit he would pull away and it would repeat

Thunderbolt NJMP fastest lap for PCA event. Car understeers a lot in low/mid speed corners. Need to work on maybe the front alignment to get more camber. Haven't checked in a couple years but did install Hardrace lower camber ball joints recently. Any pointers on my lap?
