Cross post from another forum. Someone asked me why VBOX was better than the built-in precision tool in new Porsches. Made this quick video (I'm not a youtuber) to show how the visual side-by-side compare can be helpful. Forgive my newbieness at Barber, I don't know the corner numbers off the top of my head.

Also, that is running on Windows 11 in Parallels on a MacBook M1Max/32GB, recording the screen in 4K. Seems to be running better than a year ago.

Beautiful, targeted video.

Into Turn 11, simply remember what your friend is doing.

You're braking too hard, too early and then not rolling the speed through an area where the car and the track allow more. But, you knew that!

Terrific vid. And now, you WILL be faster at Barber the next time!

Thanks Peter, Have a lot of learn there for sure. Really helps to see someone else send it in the same car.

Or be predisposed to sending it and finding out!

I won the first race I ran there against seven other cars like mine, worked it out on rFactor before I went.

Hundreds, perhaps thousands of laps. It rained as we went to the grid on slicks. No time to change, fell off in Turn 5 first lap and passed second place overall on the last lap into Turn 14! Pretty cool.

You guys are flying.

I need more Testicular fortitude in turn 1 and 11.

What was your best Lap time?

Best I could do was 1:34 flat on street tires, second weekend at Barber. There is easily 2-3 more seconds for me to find at my level of self preservation instinct, and even more for others. I'm not leaning on the aero in 10/11, and just not seeing the entry into 12/13 - it feels fast, but a friend is finding about a second on me in there by staying flat through 12 and braking at entry of 13, using the compression grip to point it up the hill. (My corners might be wrong...there seems to be two different corner number nomenclatures running around for barber)
