That was extremely cool. I love graphs, exercise, and racing, and it your post had all of those things!
120bpm isn't that high at all either, I would have expected something a bit higher. It'd be really cool to do this for a newb to compare to a relative veteran like you. I'll bet our 3 first-time-on-track guys this year would have had heart rates well above 120bpm.

I expected it to be higher as well but like I said in the post I was not really pushing very hard and spent the race at 8/10th especially since it was an unfamiliar track. I'm looking forward to retrying the same experiment at Thunderhill where I expect to push harder.

thank you for posting all that. More importantly, thanks for enduring the monitoring and doing the work to correlate all that information.

Seeing that the next race is in geek central (aka Thundehill) might that be worth a "get out of jail free" card or two?

Only if you can rig up a Sinclair ZX81 to function as an E30 ECM.
