Graph Panel Tables

This type of graph can be particularly useful if you set up the tables to match tables you want to tune in VCM Editor. Having a matching table allows you to:

Gather sample data to use in the table based on the actual behavior of the vehicle.
See what might need to be adjusted in a table based on the real time corrections being made by the controller. (For example: observing short term fuel trims can tell you how much you might need to tweak the fuel/air mix.)
