There will be one shortly...
Red squiggle is the 35.... the left y axis is SPEED. The haigher the trace the faster it is.... the dips are corners, so a higher trace here means cornering speed. The trough is the apex.
The gradient of the slopes gives an idea of braking and acceleration.
The plots are alligned on distance so comparisons can be made. Braking points for example.
The bottom half is Lap Delta.
So for example.... the red 'basline' is the datum (fastest lap... by the 35) and my traces move up/down as distance increases through the lap. If the come together i'm gaining on him, if the widen... he's faster at that point

no 
I bought the Impreza for 5k, spent maybe 10-15k (3 engines, susp, cage, brakes)
R32, yes....
Looking at 35's last night.... cheapest you see is about 35k for an imported 2009 car. BUT it would destroy tyres, brakes & fluids much more than either of our current cars.
I do want one though.... hmmmm

Whats going on with the dips at 100mph? Ish.
Looks like there is more to get out of your braking, It looks like your braking forces are almost the same with the 2 different tyres l, i would of expected a little steeper lines under braking.
You can deffinatly see how much more lateral grip the 888's have tho.

the dips at 100'ish (blue and black) is me changing into 5th.... zzzzzzz
The black trace was Time Attack - less power, worse tyres
The blue trace was in a race - more power, better tyres. I doubt i would have been banzaing the laps 
The GTR's red trace is just relentless

yup, The standard R35 has a VMAX of around 125mph on the main straight and back straight. My impreza about 115mph
Our R32 GTR does about 135mph (GPS, not looking at dials)

Couldn't have lost to a more beautifully engineered machine !
Quite impressive that the 2007 model is about 475 bhp and a massive 1730kg and still can perform so well, I still can't get my head around 1730kg !?!
Newer models have more BHP, 2012 one is around 550bhp.
