Very interesting
That is my favourite corner on the way to work, i love passing people around the outside then nailing it up onto the freeway.
Did you use the outside lane of the inside lane??

Subject: Re: 1600 measured cornering performance...
Not bad at all considering a stock R34 is only good to 0.94G (if i
remember correctly).
What tyres?
Camber?
What is the X-axis in? Seconds?
Is positive red (lateral) outwards on the corner? As in when you go in
the car accelerates as the car rolls/shifts weight to the outer wheels,
then accelerates back as it stabilises: hence the wave in the lateral.
Keen to know more,
Dave
