I still want an A9X. And an XY GTHO… I don't care that a standard 135 is quicker.

Racing starts at 9am as well. Note, it is only one car on course at a time, not two like a traditional drag race

SM1000 · 10-19-2012, 04:59 PM

In exactly one week we are racing

I was just wondering if the car I registed for the event is not ready (its at BMW getting fix) will I be able to use another car?

What car Thony???

I'm 50/50 for this event now. Bank 2 pre-cat 02 shit itself. Car runs like crap. Maybe I'll bring the Mrs 320d to this instead.

What codes are you throwing Edwin? I've had similar codes and replaced my front 02 sensor and didnt fix the problem.

2C3E Lambda probe in front of catalytic converter 2 control failure.

I ran a log and at WOT the AFR's were 20:1

Car was hesitating. I may have to double check my settings in the interface cause I ran G5 then ISO for a while then back to G4 with flash. I'll have a closer look tomorrow.

Codes sound familiar. I've cleared them and reset lambda and fuel/air settings today. If your AFR is off i suspect mines doing the same, will do some logs asap. Do you think this is related to changing from G5?

Just ran another log and and car was perfect and AFR's spot on but code keeps returning. This car is like a temperamental bitch sometimes but she still manages to put a smile on my face most of the time. I'll reset the AFR's and run more tests tomorrow. It maybe to do with the G5. My car never really liked the G5. Just couldn't get a happy medium. Another reason could be the E85 I've been running but haven't heard of any issues with E85 and 02's.

Sure your most welcome to get under the car and remove that front sensor on the DP. I'll make sure to have the car jacked up and tools ready.

Gumball · 10-20-2012, 05:20 PM

Got e85 in the car and filled a 20 litre Gerry can.

Fix your cars btw

Edwin, you are not liking g5 iso?

Fixed my car this morning so all good.

I blew my G5 ISO board (my fault) then Eric from BMS accidentally sent me another G4 instead of G5. Anyway I'll have the new G5 on Tuesday.

Here's my fuel list:

20 litres of MS109
10 litres of E85
5 litres of Methanol and some distilled water

I think that's enough octane for this event.

I think you'll be quicker than me over 1000m although I have the advantage of the auto of the line but I'm pretty sure after around 300-400m your car would reel me in and pull by the 1000m mark.

Looks like there may be a shower or two on Saturday. If the runway is wet I can assure you I'll be enjoying a hotdog while viewing the runs from the spectators section. I may add an umbrella to my ridiculous long list of crap I have to take.

Gumball · 10-21-2012, 11:59 PM

Better not rain ffs - stupid weather these days - hot cold hot cold

Good luck to Thony too- hope the car is fixed asap!!
