Good to see members driving the NISMO instead of posting “Look how pretty my car is” photos.

red line is speed
grey line is lateral acceleration
blue line is longitudinal acceleration

for floppymoppy: as I wrote, red line is speed, grey line is lateral acceleration,blue line is longitudinal acceleration. so the apex of the turn is where the GREY line peaks and the red line dips (usually).

fro kingbaby: yes, I usually check that I have room to get back on the line or that I'm completely clear... being HPDE there is no reason for bumper to bumper situation or scrubbing each other the side mirrors.

exactly.. you don't want car to car contact... especially when who lead let you pass and has a quite fast car you never know how close he could be. ( e.g. that 996 turbo or that blue twin turbo 350z )
