At least there is something to bring us together at this crappy time....SAU NSW members please refer to the thread in the members area.

Alex, thanks for your courage facing the internet today, everyone here supports you and the families and friends remaining. Please pm when one of the exec with your contact details when you feel ready to talk about how we can help

Lets see one of the news sites publish this:

"Skylines Australia, apart from promoting OFF STREET drifting are also involved in driver training, to encourage safer more controlled driving on the street (an activity both the deceased member were repotedly active in) and several other forms of legitimate motorsport in which people with a passion get to enjoy doing what they love in a controlled environment. Further they are involved in raising many thousands of dollars each year for charities, both as a club and as individual members. While also actively discouraging members from being involved in any form of street racing, and penalising those who discuss such activities on the forums."- Please note I am not authorised to comment on behalf of SAU, but this is clearly a more accurate summary of this club.

For the Media to use this tragic event to AGAIN judge and discriminate is attrocious. Lives have been lost.

RIP, may where you go have a racetrack.

No win for anyone today.

I wonder if channel 9 can be sued for slander.

RIP

rest easy gerard n tom!!! :cool: i miss u guys so effin much already... these boys were the easiest people to talk to and get along with, not only that, thank you so much for all ur awesome advice n friendships... both u guys will neva be forgotten!!! RIP ***MAN HUGZ***

R.I.P so sad to hear, very upsetting, the boys were hills shire locals

A friend was driving thru to Seven hills me being passenger and got pulled over by hwy patrol on quakers hill parkway.

Copped a red label and defect notice had to get towed home, fair enough cop the punishment for illegal mods. Wasnt expecting to get done in the west, he took the gamble.

Anyway, officer went on to spray about the crash this morning and illegal racing. Its just so sad that theres this huge persona advocated by the media that were all into illegal drag racing, drifting on streets and so on.

Hope this hits home, that no matter how good your car is setup and how well you are as a driver, its not worth it. Too many variables on the street and don't fall into peer pressure. Track is where most of us guys push ourselfs and cars and im just upset that people still risk there lives, its not worth it.

Just found this video *edit by mods: video removed, it was innacurate reporting and does not help any of us to watch*

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
