Alright, to show off some DashWare features I decided to do some comparison videos. Mark raced his car at Willow Springs recently, and I've raced my bike there in the past. I took the data from our last races there and did some comparisons using each of our fastest laps.

This first one is really fun. The viewpoint is from my bike and the gauges show my stats (speed, G-forces) as well as what Mark's stats are at the same point on the track--i.e. based off position, not time. Speed-wise, you can see what areas I'm faster in, and what areas he's faster in. He kicks my butt in a couple of the corners that spook me (turns 3 and 9), but of course on the straights he doesn't stand a chance. It must be my mad skillz. (OK, I have just a slight power/weight advantage :p)

This one is much simpler. It's a "virtual race" between Mark and I on our fastest laps. The red dot on the map is my bike's position and the green dot is his car's relative position.
