$45 bucks power bill for the last 3months! Winning! Hopefully the next one will be closer to 0 or credit.

1pm tomorrow boys!

Anyone keen for lunch prior at Market Square???

What time you thinking for lunch and where at Market Square?

I dont know I'm in the office now at Milton. But I can leave anytime. Maybe 11:30?

Little Hongkong? Malaya Corner?

I would suggest parking across the road from Malaya corner next to the school if we're going because there might be a lot of cars at this hour.

Seeing Martin's camera on the helmet got me thinking.

Anyone tried these for in car camera mounting?? Was planning to get 1 of these for recording track/drag. Shouldnt be any issue for drag but i wonder if the single suction will hold around the track when the car's swinging from side to side. This is only for a small digi camera like cybershot. Nothing hardcore.

Mangs,

Monday :(. Feeling sub-par after a big weekend. Got sunburned at the cricket yesterday too :(.

Seen a guy using one of the triple suction mounts with a big DSLR at happy laps a couple of times.

I haven't used my go-pro suction mount on the outside of the car yet, but I've seen other people do it. I will give it a go sometime.

what lap timer/recorder do you use on your phone Martin?

what lap timer/recorder do you use on your phone Martin?

Either aLapRecorderHD or Trackmaster.

aLapRecorderHD lets you record video at the same time, trackmaster is better overall BUT it won't start recording until you hit the first timing point :(.

McFly, got vids from W/E?

Not yet. I accidentally left the GoPro on after go karting so the battery went flat, and I haven't got around to charging it yet. And I was too lazy to set the phone up for Happy Laps :(.

Will put the go karting videos up as soon as I can.

So trackmaster does record video and overlay the data on it? I had a play with alaprecorder and it looks ok, but apparently exporting it from the phone is a bitch?

No trackmaster doesn't record the video. I have tried running the standard camera app and trackmaster at the same time and it seemed to work OK, but you have to have trackmaster in the background so it is really only useful for data recording, and then you need to synch up the video and data manually. And I haven't tried it in a 'real' scenario yet to see if there are any noticable frame rate issues or anything.

So, if you want to record video + data, alaprecorder is the way to go. I haven't had any problem with the exporting of data. I use a PC program called race render to do the overlays.

Trackmaster is better as a dedicated lap timer app without video recording. It's OSD gives you split times and things like that as you go.

UQ web servers are about as stable as a one legged man in a wrestling match. This is utter rubbish.

sounds like you are making compliment to uq web servers :D

anyway.. cant wait for this :thumbsup:

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
