Scratchies were a bust but still counting on the lotto tickets Bec :) Looking forward to sharing first div with you.

With me & Brisby - if you win, we split it 3 ways.

Bugger those scratchies - do they ever win - meh, at least they kept you entertained for a whole 5 minutes or so.

Was some new space age polymer inserted to support the WANG!!

Apparently having 2 cars for track was sooo much WANG that it completely wrecked the back.

Now I think I might have to play catch up in the club champs by bringing 2 cars and running 2-3 classes :P RWD mod, AWD std and mod

Have had a bit.

Absolute crap last night. Was taken off Brufen for dizziness, and by 10pm my back was so swollen i couldn't lie down on my back or front, and my right side. By 3am I went and shoved some Bugesic in, which is the same as Brufen/Nurofen but no dizziness. Really helps with inflammation. Amazingly I'm even better today.

Had the staples out yesterday and the nurses are amazed how good the closure was. Nice to get the best neurosurgeon in town :D

glad to hear the surgury went well.

backs are shocking things to go.

mine is calcified for 3/4 of its length and fused solid so I have a rough idea were you have been.

glad to hear someone has a surgical option. enjoy it and dont abuse your new found mobility.

Well team, I saw my back mechanic yesterday (professor of Neurosurgery at Monash or somewhere) and he recommends a long overdue rebuild.SNIP explains why I keep falling over and losing control of my left leg in right hand corners in the car. I will also get a spacer to stop the upper vertebrae crushing down on the disc as well. I'll be in Epworth for the whole weekend and then transferred by ambulance to RAAF Williams near Laverton to our Military hospital there. SNIP So all in all it is a bit of a relief, but I get to stay in Vic a bit longer.

Shoulda joined the premium service in the first place mate!! (RAAF!)

The WRAAF's will iron you out and have you feeling like a new man... Better not tell the missus. Pretty sneaky way of getting out of having to bring Roys GTR cams to the meeting for me though.

I guess there will be no excuses for not shaving a few secs off the lap times now then? ;-)

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
