[N S W] Putty Road Run, Sunday Sep. 14th 2008

[Rotary]

Thats a nice increase, I'd really like to see a dyno plot if you ever get around to it.

The First is done just after i bought the car and put in new Sparks, Filters (air, oil) and Oil.
The Second is after all Mods, listed in my Garage

There is a glitch in the 2nd Graph, this sometimes happens if the gearchange is very rough, but doesn't make any diff to results once it smooths out.

There were a few other variables involved, such as Temp, Humidity, vehicle weight etc. which i wrote down each run, and I used to compare and minimize any inaccuracies, and it would have only been around 1% from memory.
Also use the same stretch of road everytime.

Nice improvement, I've got some new redline engine oil waiting to go in now that all the oil leaks have been fixed, see if it makes a difference. Can you whack the gtech in my car? Ill try and beat you on lateral g's instead haha.

Have you got an LSD?

[Rotary]

Yeah we can stick the G-tech on at Wakefield if you come down, it can measure all cornering, braking and accel G's in Racer Mode.
I'll give you braking too, untill I get these




Can't believe they're DOT Legal.

And the Kuhmo website says:
Asymmetric tread pattern for efficient water evacuation

Tread pattern efficient water evacuation

So when we going to Wakefield? haven't been in this car yet....

It's the Mx5 Club track meeting on Sunday, 26th October, 2008.

Bring the Performance Box and run a couple of laps so I can see the proper way round

It shows racing lines too doesn't it(when mapped)

Been looking at getting one for a while now, would've been keen if that group buy went ahead.

must put my name down then.....

What Grade oil you trying?

No LSD on mine, bad for the track and dragracing.

Be good to test your Brake Biasing Unit with the Gtech, have you put it on yet?

Cant remember ill get back to u. its race oil though, apparently its not recommended, oh well, i redline all the time anyway.

Get an lsd its so good.

U could try the gtech on marcus' car, mine had the wrong rear pads and cant afford proper ones. I haven't put it on yet no, probably won't till later this year, too busy with uni.

Anyone know what shoes are Acceptable

In the regulations it states:
11.c) Shoes which completely cover the feet, made entirely of leather or other flame resistant materials
Shoes that contain any synthetic materials much as nylon are forbidden.

I have a pair of of regular New Balance sneakers, mostly leather but with some breathing sections, not sure if flamable or not, and don't want to try

Would these be ok or are they very strict on that stuff
Thanks, Matt.

If its at wakefield, last time I wore volleys and was fine, maybe not the best for driving, but did the job.

I haven't had a problem in the past wearing a pair of New Balance sneakers or my other sneakers that both have some breathing sections.

Cheers, Wasn't sure how strict they would be, with the Club being CAMS affiliated and all,
