for the hell of it im going to post this. its a picture of the graph of the Gs pulled according to the dynolicious app on my Ipod. I took this when we were coming back down the skyway Thursday night. The log shows that my max latteral was .9 and my max braking was .67 Gs.

Last year I pulled 1.1 lateral g's according to my car's factory g-meter. God, I wish I could've gone this year... :blackeye:
yeah, IIRC that was on the Dragon where there are lots of tight, on camber turns. pulling .9 on the skyway, at night is pretty damn good.
 
Friday and Saturday night runs were the best...drier roads for me were key:cool:

Pete, I'm sure you can make it out next year, its going to totally eclipse this years if I had to guess right now!
