AX Extreme I think is a way to compare an instructor to a student. It can be a way to show a driver what the National Champion vs what you do.
Check out this interesting tech article from the Vorshlag crew on shifting versus riding the rev limiter. Not just subjective info, but they used run traces logged with a DL-1 data acquisition system to objectively measure and compare segment times. Very enlightening, and something I relearned firsthand last Saturday when Kenny and Jon outran me by riding the limiter instead of shifting (and not hitting cones, but that’s beside the point ).

It would be nice to have more data, as there aren't quite enough samples, and there are always driver inputs that can affect the time, but generally I agree with everything it shows: Slow in/fast out, upshift at lower speeds if there's an option, limit downshifts when possible. All of these will make you smoother and you'll be more focused on that next corner....... Thanks for the article!
