Very nice. Like how he "picks a radius" after loading up the tire and stays with it. Not a lot of steering drama (except in Madness!).

Textbook Keyhole, pretty good Carousel, very good T1 and T6 (right at the end of the back straight).

Slightly early turn in, hence too much road required at exit of T9 (Mid Ohio School corner numbering scheme, the right at the bottom of the hill after Madness. That would not work in a heavier, more powerful car) and he can afford to overshoot entry into the Carousel a little more (by another car width) to "diamond" more, hence get to WOT sooner exiting T14 and approaching T15, but yes, the best I've seen on this thread.

Yep, that's it! Kevin is a pro, in the best sense of the word and in fact. His day job is as an R&D engineer (performance testing) for Honda in Ohio.

Slightly later turn in for T9 and T11, and NO dead time between end of braking and power application in T1 and a number of other places is just terrific.

Just thought I'd follow up with a lap.

I'm planning to work on getting to throttle a little earlier in Turn 1 (have data of other laps with sooner throttle application), more initial rotation in the keyhole and carousel (notes after driving this session), and better throttle to brake transition (most notably the entry to 9 & 10).
