Hehe - last Friday. Most unbelievable thing I have done in a car. The place is unbelievably scary. Still - I was told that 9:12 on my 1st ever lap around there in a car I'd never driven before puts me into a category known as "insane". lol

I really want to go back again very badly.

A race prepped (well cage, good suspension and brakes) BMW E87 135i.

Decent engine and RWD coupled with a short wheel base made it very exciting to drive - until it started to piss down then it was just down right frightening. lol

Company I used - http://www.rent-racecar.de/gb/ - they were really great.

I've got a Dopod windows mobile phone so thought I'd share this find with you folks. It works on Windows mobile and also has a full windows version (I'm also working on integrating a laptop into the car for a full car-puter - but that is taking some time).

It is free and has capabilities to do ODBII logging too! I haven't tried it yet but looks good. Now, if I could just figure out how to get ODB out of my Autronic SM2!

Unfortunately I no longer have my Nokia so I can't use the race-chrono software. But I did a bit of searching around and I found another application that works on any phone with java capabilities. It's no where near as cool as race chrono but it is better than nothing. I did a quick test and it seems to work well as a lap timer but it just doesn't have the cool google earth / excel functions.

Just thought someone out there may be interested in a cheap lap timer.

found it on the IPRA forums. thought it might be handy for some people here, and we might get some feedback about how it well it works! see if its worth upgrading my old phone...

Hey, have you seen this one? RaceChrono

It does all kinds of stuff like lap times, quarter mile times, 0 - 100kph etc

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
