I really regret holding onto Traqmate so long. Crap. My time is more valuable than that.
I sold the traqmate but told the buyer he's not allowed to pay me until he gets it checked out by Traqmate or installs it and it works, always a crap shoot.

Had my traqmate for yrs. never a problem except for the worlds worst video. Too lazy to upgrade. Heard horror stories about gopro box for traqmate. I'll spend the money on the Bruce lee stickers instead. Or I know. The green hornet kills the bee. Lol.

Trakcar,
I'm not picking on you, but you have posted the most videos and the most recent of which had clear track and MPH data. I did a quick comparison between your minimum apex speed (absolute lowest MPH recorded at each corner) and compared that to my absolute lowest MPH recorded at each corner. Now I admit that I don't know if this is helpful or not, but sometimes when you see something done you are like, wow it can be done, and its then easier for the observer to replicate. Again I'm not pointing you out just using your video to collect data to compare myself vs. all of these faster GT3, RS, 4.0 etc.
To be up front with all, this comparison might not mean anything based on the differences in the the two cars being compared. But in the spirit of sharing and comparing I thought it might enlighten us all on how your lap is made vs. how my lap is made. Again, don't think I'm calling you out or coming up with revolutionary data analysis but I thought I'd share.

T15a 68 62
T16 64 61

So the comparison is on the up and up, "me" is a Boxster race car with 996 3.6L street motor on Yoko slicks, stock brake disc and calipers w/ Pagid Black Pads. Weight is 2875 with me and half tank.
Trakcar laps at 2:18 my best is a 2:21
Food for thought is that if all (or you) could up there minimum corner apex speed by just one or two MPH per corner you might pick up a second or more over the entire 3.7 miles and take you to the promise land of 2:16. That is if I'm correct that your best is a 2:18. If not adjust accordingly.
Again, just a thought and an interesting comparison for myself and I thought I'd throw it out here.

Most of that is accounted for by a significant weight difference between both car/driver packages & the fact that you are in a fully caged car with fire suppression, on SLICKS, etc., IMO. Some is accounted for by driving, again IMO.

interesting data. The Boxster appears to be faster in the corners.
The GT3 is on stock shocks and street legal tires however...
Slicks would give higher speeds in the corner to match the speeds of the Boxster data i believe...
