NoLimits Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Well the full SBD kit arrived today. Gear change system. traction control and launch control. I got a selection of knobs to install  One is for the traction control and how sensitive it is. It is numbered 1 - 8 plus one extra call Chris Gibbs mode Curborough 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSL Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Blimey Simon you turned into Julian Clary over the winter  Us real men simply grow a hairy chest, then deal with the wheelspin & oversteer of the mighty Busa 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skydragon Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I can't wait to see his first 360 deg spin on-track in this new beast, after the tyre smoke has cleared they'll be a puzzled look, followed by a frantic twiddling of knobs....only one knob to blame though I reckon... 😬 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydragon Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Jeeezz...it's only February and we're already ripping the pi&& out of each other...roll on the 2012 events and paddock banter I say!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I still maintain there's definitely something a bit "Hello sailor" about resorting to that sort of thing 😳 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 😬 😬 😬 Rob - sticking to using a gear stick and worrying about remembering which way the next corners go (left or right) rather than what traction knobbo setting to use  PS simon can you twiddle with your knob whilst on the go like F1 boys.... 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Pepper Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Playing with your knob whilst driving  Have I stumbled on the wrong forum? Says he who also has a shiny new knob on his dash this year 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSL Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Having recently installed & dyno'd my new Busa engine I fear traction control could well be required by me too 😳 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydragon Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It's good to see you class 6 girlies having engine wars too, just like class 4, div 2... 😬 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon.Rogers1 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Yes and No. Sorted some of the wiring but still need to work out the starter relay wire order. I've been jumping the starter to get it running 😳 Dave K is going to check his relay tonight for the order. Sounds like a race engine particularly on the lovely new silencer  Oh and it smells 🥰 on the Putoline Nano Tech oil - close to Castrol R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon.Rogers1 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Now sorted Rob  Nice to be able to start it without rubber gloves and a large grips  Gear loom arrives Wednesday - hopefully see it on the road for the weekend! Now where's the snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 rubber gloves and a large grips are these more of your driver aids  glad to know it is working am taxed and mot'd so expect 40 days and nights of rain now.... rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoLimits Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 OH MY LORD 😬 Just got the Launch control working *smokin* *smokin* *smokin* 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 🥰 Has to have been the fastest start I have ever done  Now to program some options - so that you can all stand and laugh when I do it wrong!

Mark Gibson Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Us mere mortals in classes 1-5 wont be able to see your start very easily from the paddock and viewing areas but according to the running order, Rob, Darren and Pete will have a ringside seat for the effectiveness of your new launch control 😬 Does this mean you are going to bring in a new PB award for fastest 64ft time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 from my understanding it wasn't your starts that where a problem last weekend, it was some of the corners 😳  Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
