2013 Track apps accelerometer #s for fun

Hey guys, I was playing around with the track apps in the dash and clicked on the accelerometer. I have never been to a road course, and this is on stock Pirrelli rubber and T springs and BMR suspension mods. It keeps your highest g's saved. Here is what I got and would like to know what everyone else has saved as a best. Please state If yours is on stock rubber or what tires you used.
Brake .94
right .75
left .80
accel .81
So again, this is just street driving, but I'm interested to see what everyone elses best #'s are street or track, on the track apps in your car not a gps or go pro. I think the accel is the most interesting to me.
Thanks guys, lets have a bit of fun.
12 owners, post yours if you have an app or device that records it for you and state what kind it is.
 
I keep forgetting to check mine.
Do you know if it records it by itself in the background, or do I have to have the accelerometer/track apps open for it to start recording?

This was after my first track day last week. After I watched some other videos, I see I could have been a lot harder on the brakes!

After a track event at The Ridge in Shelton WA a few weeks back. Everything is pretty much stock except for some Michelin Pilot SS tires.

Haven't really had a chance to nail it from a standing start with the launch control yet.

It must record the numbers by itself as I have never set mine and the numbers are there. But im sure every time you undo your neg battery cable it erases them.
 
Yes, I have a 2012, but this got me thinking. When I run at the track I use a G-Tech pro which has a g meter in it. I never really pay attention to the g-forces, only the top speed and the overall time. I overlaid the data to video for last time I was at Watkins Glen. While watching the video, I noticed that at times the g-forces were over 1.5g's. So I started going thru the actual data and found my max g-forces. I had 1.13 fwd; 1.34 braking; 1.54 left and 2.49 right. Now the 2.49 was for a real short period of time, but I believe it is correct as it worked up to that reading and then back down. This is also with 305 P-Zero slicks which seem to have amazing traction. Could 2.49 g's be possible?
