Thanks guys! I spent today figuring out why the lambda sensors weren't working. It turned out to be a CAN bus wiring issue and so that's sorted. It's a secure feeling knowing that the engine is burnin...

There's no video, but I have a running car again!! The ECU seems to control all I can test correctly. Throttle, paddle shifter, fans, water pump, compressor all seem to to be working ok. Lots and lo...

I use Ravenol C13.

I've got a 10 year old 2500 Duramax. I've pulled enclosed trailers with lots of vehicles, but nothing comes close to it. Long wheelbase (it's a 4 door with 6 ft bed) makes a big difference too. I just...

I've spent too many times with a dead battery at the track. I've done the marine battery, plus connect to the trucks charging circuit, etc., but I was tired of worrying if I had enough battery to load...

I've got Hankooks on my '8. I am quite interested in alignment differences between tire brands (and why).

I've just had one weekend with my paddle-shifted SR8 after years and years of a manual transmission track car. Paddle shifting lets you concentrate on other things -- your driver involvement just chan...

Yes, that's right on the dwell. One of the reasons I chose the coils I did is that Bosch publishes a full dwell data sheet for them.

Thank you Charley for getting this site up and running. I'm thrilled to have a spot online where we can share our experiences and help each other out!

Rolling around the pits (paddock) without stalling takes some practice. The clutch is not your friend. You just have to hop in, get your ergonomics right (as Richard said) and go.

The car is now coming back to life. I've got all the lights, brakes, and turn signals working again (I rewired the chassis harness and removed a lot of unused wires as part of this). The M1 has power...
