Thanks! I'm connected via obd2. 2 things to consider:
1). Are you connected via the Porsche specific obd2 protocol and not the generic obd2
2). Transmission. You can only get brake pressure via obd2 if you have pdk. If you have manual transmission, you need to connect via CAN if you want brake pressure.

Yeah I found that as well. But I'm. more concerned with the analysis rather than the video. It'll be nice if I can compare braking (both timing and pressure).

Nice chase cam video shot by a pro driver who was at the same track day. The ZL1 1LE is deadly in the right hands...

Great driving Joe! We really enjoyed watching you thrash our brakes. I'm also glad you're liking the new Ferodo DS3.12 pads. I just put them on my C6 track car yesterday, and they are indeed awesome. What was totally weird is that they are completely silent on my car...not a single squeak, chirp, or squeal!

Forgot to mention: don't let the fuel gauge even touch the red 'E' zone. You will get fuel surge through T7 and T8 in this car. In prior cars I would be able to drive deeper into the E zone before it happened, but in this car, as soon as the needle touches it, you will get fuel surge and go into limp mode if you are at full tilt through T7 and T8

Good to see one's own initial impressions about Dunlops confirmed by someone who does more running.
Experienced the same thing with fuel on the exit of Pouhon at Spa.
Low fuel helps the laptimes but stutters in the middle of fast corners can be an unpleasant surprise.

When it goes in limp mode, do you also lose all even gears?
On my 991.1RS with 90L tank, losing gears only happend to me once and all OK after filling up the car.
Usually it goes just in limo mode. I’ve sent video of it to Andreas Preuninger after explaining it to him at Goodwood as I think it can be dangerous. Seems that instead of fixing it, it became worse?
On track I try to never run it below 30 Miles to empty, or about a quarterone tank.
Street driving I flat line it all the time, no problem.
