this sounds really cool, please put my name down as well.

im only a novice but I guess thats what this is for.

All rite! I'll put you in, Denham....

Sorry JamesW, no spectators. This is a training course, not an event.

You don't bring friends to watch you go to school, right? :-)

are watchers welcome?

I'll book the venue tonight and contact you guys in regards to deposit.

(Minimum $50 deposit is required to confirm place at least 2 weeks before

the D-Day).

It'll be Saturday 21st February then... the venue is within Melbourne metro, however as this is a training day, not a competition event, we can't advertise location on public forum as we can't have hundreds of people rock up at the gate just wanting to be spectators.

Venue will be disclosed to confirmed participants only.

Halz,

I'm yet to hear from Driver dynamics in regards to how we're gonna arrange the number of ppl... For each additional people above 6 drivers in a group, we'll have to extend the session by 1 hour so that everyone can still have 4-5 laps of 15 mins each.

Alternatively if we have enough people then we'd have to make another group, say Sunday 22nd Feb, but if it's gonna be about 6-7 extra then the Sunday

group may not have the BBQ. Even BBQ for Sat group is yet to be confirmed, depending on if the BBQ on site is working or not, and the time to prepare & cook it within 30 min lunch break. But BBQ or not, it's still a fun day out there :)

Rianto

All full now? bummer.. was hoping me and mate could go.. $120 is quite good value.

simmo for events like this there are no spectators allowed. its purely just for the driver education, not like the drags or anything. im sure if you were to sign up for the next session you could still have some fun with your honda, remember it would be totally leagal to do whatever you like with your car at this place, and better than doing it in public plus helps car control

sorry rianto i cant make this one again (frustrating) but thankfully gerald said last week that my suspension is coming in 2 weeks so not long now and also new wheels coming soon (volk challenge hoorah)

thx for updating the list for me, hksgtst.... I'd be sending PMs around once I got booking day pre-confirmation from Driver Dynamics.

Simmo32, no you can't come and watch as this is a training day no event. If you want to pay extra $10,000 for public liability insurance, you're welcome to watch and bring all your mates as well :D

hey doxx, no problem... have fun with the new wheels :D

don't go blinding old ppl around ur block with those shiny new rims u got :D

halz, won't be a problem, looks like if we have 13 confirmed ppl to go,

then i'd be happy to open another 4 hour session on sunday 22nd feb.

i'd put your name in for the meantime and u can ask ur mate to come along.

I would be happy for another day or the longer sessions - as long as it doesnt become inconvenient for everyone else.

Let us know what can be arranged - I may be able to get a few people interested..

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • 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
