Hey All,

Thanks for the comments. It was a long and argeous road to get where we ended up. Bit bummed on the RWD run as the rollers were a little slippery. Even with an extra 400 kgs of ballast couldn't help my car grip :)

I need to give special thanks to Gerald, Nige, Pete, Karlos, Mick, Jack and all the others involved in the car for putting in the special tireless efforts over the last couple weeks to get this car in order and making silly numbers on the dyno. Without their help, this would not have happened. This car wasn't ready until 5am on Sat mornign and then moved into Jeff's Shed before the general public were let in.

30kms of running in was all the time we had to check the engine. Seems pretty strong :)

Heading out to NDSOC Drag Day on 28 May for those who are interested in watching this thing run. Should be interesting.

I'll work on the footage soon but I've got a fair bit of it so it may take awhile.

i went saturday....had a quick run around the show to check out the cars and stayed the whole time at dyno area for that run........boy was it worth it.....i was right in the corner aswell so the flame was AWESOME!!!

congrats on that 604at all 4s run.....i so wanted to come sunday for the rw run....what happened with that?? rollers were slippery??

Congrats once again :)

when your making that much power, grip isnt your friend in RWD mode ;)

that was the problem.

    • 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.
