That looks fun!

What are you using for data acquisition i.e. the speed and g readout?

Update

Following a little investigation, I've found out that the driver was experiencing difficulty in holding 2nd gear. This was simply rectified by adjusting the gear selector cable.

The driver also reported that there was insufficient bias towards the rear brakes and thus there was more to be had, as the day progressed, driver familiarity kicked in and the car was adjusted accordingly the lap times dropped further.

Unfortunately this is the only video footage released, so far Grrrr
