Figure 36: RPMs vs Time — launch
You will see a tall vertical bar on the graph that marks the
launch where the G-tech began timing.
Thus you can see what your RPMs were at launch, and even
for a brief period before launch.
Generally you will see a dip in RPMs at the launch, as the
clutch engages and loads the engine.
Note: The launch is perhaps the most crucial part of a run.
By using the G-tech to analyze graphs of your RPMs ( p. 75 ) and
your forward acceleration ( p. 86 ), you can perfect your launch
technique and improve your times!
Figure 37: RPMs vs Time — milestones
You will see a plus sign (+) on the graph at each place where
a milestone occurred (Figure 37). When you move the cur-
sor over a milestone marker, the milestone region will be
updated with the name of the milestone and its timestamp.
Note: You must move the cursor over a milestone (from
either direction) to update the milestone region. If you move the
cursor near another milestone, but not over it, the milestone
region will not be updated.
Assuming that you let off the throttle during a shift, note that
by placing the cursor at each peak in the graph, you can
determine the time and RPM value where you shifted into
each gear.
