Autometrics brought a 997 RSR to last year's Summit club race. Corey set a new overall PCA track record of 1:12.1 (1:11.0 this year) and I was curious what his min corner speeds were compared to mine.
RSR vs Cayman T1 49 50 T3 86 85 T4 113 107 T5 48 49 T9 93 89 T10 93 90 Lap 1:12.1 vs 1:18.2 These are not his or my best min speeds; just his best weekend lap compared to mine.

What I learned a while ago is that my slowness is due to the corner speed, which I look at from turn in to track out. In most cases, including mine, it is not having the confidence to push the go pedal early enough after apex to minimize time between those two points, so even if you carry the min same speed, the slower drivers spend more time at or near than min speed.

What I learned the first time I did data comparisons with a pro driver driving my car the same day as me was that I was just as fast as the pro driver in the slow corners. This was a surprise because I thought that the slow corners where were I was losing time because certainly no one could be “that much” faster than me in the fast corners.....
