i took the car to a HPDE last weekend at Sears Point (Infineon) and at couple places around the track i noticed the car was struggling a bit to go faster
(before i explain any further here is a reference link to the track map as i am going to refer to various turns on the track and where i noticed the problem)

this was constantly happening coming out of turn 6 and shifting into 4th after the turn and between turn 12 and turn 1 (more close to turn 1) in 4th gear. i did not notice this to be the case between turns 8 and 11 when i was in 4th but maybe that was because the paddle was not fully floored as i was going through the turns as it was normally the case around turn 6 and turn 1. also, both in turn 1 and after 6 it was occurring around 100mph and it would just struggle to go faster.
i have no idea why this was the case hence hoping some of you might have some insight or have experienced something similar yourself.
any help is greatly appreciated.
