^ ummmm...now is probably not the time to tell you that he didn't even scruntineer my car, look at my helmet, extinguisher or car in general. I literally drove past him (at about 7:15am mind you) got a sticker and continued on my way.

Change of subject, awesome day - Ash, thanks for the delicious BBQ, SAUVIC, thanks for the garage for chill times.

Yup they went through the cars a mate of mine was done for suction cup, I got told I had to remove my steering lock as my car isn't registered

Got told the same thing about my steering lock too

I got the steering lock thing too... and that i need to have a key hanging out the boot lid....

just let it slide, if they actually stopped anyone racing then it night have been a different story.

I just happened to be on PI for a holiday, early Saturday morning walks I bumped into the Heasman's crew and easily got talked into heading to the circuit to check things out.

Managed to meet a couple of SAU members, checked out the R33 GTR, R34 GTR, S13, S14, S15, R33 GTSt, Commodore, and the Ginetta (from a distance).

Today was a travel day to return home, pity I missed a chance to meet more SAU members. The Vic scene looks healthy, and people approachable for a yarn. Club motorsport is where it's at.

And I finally got to see why PI is raved about - I'd like to bring my car there for a run but it's a long drive from Qld. The only negative I found was the weather down in those latitudes is everything it's cracked up to be... :yucky:;)

Evo Brake rotors are warped and shuddery when hot, Pads almost done...

And ABS kicking in constantly after I got some heat into the race spec nankang tyres ;)

Either way, got a few sessions in because I decided to call it to preserve my daily, was good to see how it performed out there. Would be a monster on good tyres and some fresh rotors / pads :) Was a lot of fun wrestling with it during a 4 wheel slide :D

I didn't even get out of my car during scruitineering, rolled in... he opened the boot and closed it in 2 seconds, same with the bonnet, stuck a sticker on and off I went. Didn't even look at my fire extinguisher or helmet :P

Really good day and heaps of new people to talk to! Very positive to start to the SAUVic Motorsport Season

I walked into the office to sign in, and the girl saw my SAU Shirt and said "Damn, another one of you!!"... and the guy said to her in a loud whisper "Shhhhhh, they're funding the day!"

did lol

First time at PI and had an awesome day!

Only managed one or two sessions but car should be right for next time

I need to get myself one of those SAU Motorsport shirts!

And thanks to Ash for the BBQ!

Did you end up having enough fuel to get home? I got home with 1/3 of a tank and 30L spare in jerries haha.

Yeah had enough fuel!

Only becuase i missed 2 sessions and only ran half laps of another 2 sessions .

Had about 1/3 of tank. Used 1/2 a tank and 3 jerry cans for the day still

Saw you beep on the way home :thumbsup:

    • 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.
