Thx Matt! I filmed with a spare iPhone in airplane mode. Then open QuickTime. Plug in iPhone to Mac (with Porsche app open on the video recording). Then in QuickTime select new movie recording. Once window open click the arrow next to record icon. Select iPhone as input for video and for sound. Your iPhone screen will mirror in QuickTime. Hit the record button on QuickTime and hit play on Porsche app. When done. Hit stop on QuickTime recording. Save file on QuickTime to location on Mac.

I rather like this angle ....on the iPhone when filming. Here I film with my iPhone6 s. Its more nice to see driver involvolment I think.
I like that angle too but as an optional view. I prefer to see what is out the front window fully. Maybe using my regular phone windshield and spare on back for driver view. Also thx for posting a sample... Made me realize I didn't have my extended view on in the app to show wheel spin and slip angle.

I'll have to dig thru the data in circuit tools next.

So much fun being out there and meeting fellow enthusiasts. Looking forward to whittling it down over time. Chris's time is inspirational; He is consistently fast!

Summit Point Main 1.27 - YouTube
Let's get the GT4's out to play again!

For those curious about tire/brake wear driving pretty hard laps for 4 track days (2 weekends):
  • Tires - most of the "good" grip of the MPSC2's are gone. at least 1 second slower in similar conditions. Outer and 2nd to outer tread 85% gone.
  • Pads - Front/Rear OEM pads have about 5-6mm remaining. (Fairly conservative braking w/ESC & TC turned off @ the track)

Just came back from a PCA Potomac DE at Summit Point in WV. Turned a new personal best this morning -- 1:21.54. Car is mostly stock, with a few mods:
  • TPC DSC box
  • TPC rear toe links with offset bushings
  • Forgeline 19" rims and Bridgestone RE-71R tires.
  • PFC 11 pads.
Sway bars were full soft front and full stiff rear. Aero was set to "max" (front spoilers removed and wing set to highest angle).

Had some surprise free time tonight, so here's the video:

How do I embed Vimeo video? I can see how to embed YouTube video, but there don't seem to be appropriate tags for Vimeo.

0.2 faster than before, so not much better.

Thanks. No, that is the co-owner of my GT3, Chris.

The SOUND, amazing. And those quick shifts! Very nice Joe!

I've updated the list to include your best time only. All the best!

Default Spa Francorchamps

Here is a video from Spa last week. Didn't go faster than previous lap already posted here - both tyres were more tired and traffic was not helpful.

Oh...and here is a little snippet playing with a friend in a 991RS...he passed by under power on the long uphill kemmel straight - so much more power!

Very nice. The sound is excellent. Trackmasters or POC?

I was racing with the POC in the #52 Cayman (see avatar).

Cheers,
