There you go! as driver, you need to harness this power, not just try and be smooth! 
you are smooth now, and Im sure you can handle it especially with the slicks.
sure, some of those turns like 2 and 3, you might not be able to use it, and also you dont want to be reeling around turn 2 at 6000rpm due to oiling issues, but , i dont think you are that far off what i run as far as RPM around the turns. we did the math before, and it was around 10% difference at most
just by watching the video, there is a little time to be gained by being in some lower gears.

After looking at my dyno chart......I could run 2nd a little high before it becomes diminishing returns.....if 2nd can hold to say the apex of 13....or even in between then its worth it
BTW I have a set of 305/645-18 Pirellis sitting in the shop.....plus a bunch of really tall GT3 tires (305/680-18 & 316/675-18)

Yep. Go show Newton right!!!
Hey, by the way, dont call your videos "lap records" its a little misleading. call them personal bests (PB's) or (PRs) personal records. they are not lap records.
