Cheers for the reply. So it limits the amount of revs you can hit in 1st and 2nd gear? Until you are rolling?

Yes matey, the limit is lowered in both 1st and 2nd gears and you get a lovely sounding Hard-cut limiter when you hit it!!

Booked myself onto another trackday......this time at Blyton Park this coming Sunday.

@Neilgti is coming along with me to come out in the ASBO!

Also @monte might be joining me on track too and finally stretching his lovely Eddy's legs properly again!

There's quite a few local guys going up so it should be a good day out........ @Tfsi_Mike might be making a guest appearance too now he's back from the South Atlantic!

I bet this thing is a bit of a weapon! Id be tempted to go more standard looking sleeper style!

Theres not enough pictures in here!

Would you tell me what you did regarding the ESP? Did you somehow code it right out? I could do with doing that, i always have to switch ESP off and the flashing light does my nut in!

Thanks buddy......funny you should say that I've just removed the front splitter and raised the ride height a little so it does look pretty standard.......apart from the brakes and wheels!

You're right about the pictures matey, I'll try to get some more this weekend at the track......videos too!

I can't remember exactly what we did with the ESP coding, you'd have to ask Alex at AKS about that one.

If the yellow light is flashing then the ESP isn't totally off.....its just subdued a little. Now mines been coded the lights stays on solidly and the ESP will not cut back in AT ALL!

Think my helmet is in the back of my car.  If I can make it Ill have to remind Neil to fetch it. 

If I can come Ill try and remember to fetch my GoPro and accessories so you get an extra camera angle.

Mate, that'll be epic if you can come......and bring the GoPro too! Will be good to see you!

So, I treated the ASBO to a trackday last weekend at my very local track......Blyton Park. The new additions of the TTE420/WMI and supporting mods complimented perfectly by the custom linear track orientated map by R Tech ensured that the power delivery was perfect and predictable all day long.
The new handling mods and extremely aggressive GeoSetup by Alex @ AKS meant that I was pushing even the most track orientated open wheeled cars through the corners! Once out onto the straights the TTE420 could be unleashed and I was blasting past cars that @ 2+ would've been out of my reach!

It was great that a few guys from the Forum could join me..... @monte joined me on track in his gorgeous Eddy which was excellent to see stretching its legs. @Tfsi_Mike & @Neilgti joined us both for passenger rides in the morning which was a great laugh too!

I did get a bit of a wrist slap after my first session for exceeding the track noise limits of 95dB......the Javelin boys were good as gold though and just asked me to "go easy" past the noise monitor!

"co-operate, for a fun safe day" I think the brief was    The git

[Bignod00]

Hahahahaha, yeah buddy.....he was being a total douchebag wasn't he!?

There's always one isn't there?

Cars looking fantastic mate, we should do a forum track day where we can get a good few of us in the paddock, do some passenger rides etc. Be good to compare setups and mods also.

It takes some amount of effort to get a decent number of people to commit to a date just to begin with.  I attempted a sprint day last year and didn't get too far.  Perhaps I didn't give enough time before hand.  As soon as dates for Spring track days go online we could try again :)

Yeah I did think it would be a challenge considering it can be difficult just to get people to turn up to a show stand 

But yeah with plenty of notice and a track that's not too far from people I would think we could get at least 5 cars on track and maybe a few visitors.

That sounds ace to me guys.....it is always hard organising something like this as everyone's lives are so busy and different.

Maybe if we do try (as Mike said) to get one organised as early as possible then it'd work?

I'm 100% up for it in principle!!

 

[dansmith180]

Sweet, well yeah once the 2016 dates are announced we can pick one of them months in advance and hopefully get a decent amount of people.
