The rig

Nothing exotic. The point is what the data says, not what the gear cost.

Game: Project CARS 2 on Xbox
Wheel: Logitech wheel on a stand, three pedals, H-shifter
Braking: Left foot. Brake sensitivity raised to 80 so hard stops take less leg.
Logger: Mac mini on the home network, catching the game's telemetry broadcast

The Xbox broadcasts telemetry. Speed, inputs, gear and position, many times a second.
The Mac mini logs every lap. Sectors, valid or not, where the game flagged track limits.
The coach reads the laps. Time lost per corner, coasting, spins, traction control cutting in.
The session lands here. Records update on their own.
