So i recieved my new 2016 mustang gt pp this past week. It was delivered with 31 miles which ive been told is high for a new car (that wasnt factory tested) but the dealer said at least 5 of them were from gassing it up. I didnt pay much mind to it until i got to the track apps and saw the accelorometer already had nukbers logged into it.

All the numbers are .50-.59 . Since the car is new i havent drove it anywhere above mild. Are these numbers high and may indicate that someone "tested" it out prior to me getting there? Ill also add it was at the dealer for about 20 days before i was able to make the trip out there as I had a lot of work changeups.

None of those numbers are high. Someone probably got on it on the street once already moving but the braking and lateral numbers are nothing.

I brought my accelerometer display up the other day too, and noticed some "high scores" on the left G's and braking G's. 1.50 for each. Can these numbers be reset, and are these actual "high scores"? Meaning numbers my car has seen?

Go to clear results under track apps and you can clear the accelerometer. 1.5 for lateral is you spinning out lol.

Yeah, I had a feeling someone did some donuts...guess it's confirmed now. Wonder how much of my tires they ate up.

My car had .5g average each direction and 30 miles on the odometer too. Nothing to worry about man.

I've done donuts and my laterals are only .73 and .84. If your laterals are above 1, it means a sudden stop while moving sideways seeing as how the tires break loose around 1.
As for braking, mine is at .89 and that was literally standing on the pedals so I wouldn't kiss the ass end of a honda at 55 mph.
Acceleration is .74 from getting on it hard from a rolling start in 2nd then going to 3 and 4 (spinning tires and sliding around in sport mode basically the whole time).
