ok, I've been a slack tart and haven't followed up with JP. after binning my car at Eastern Creek on sunday I was feeling a bit tight arse, but I'm back in the swing of things now. >_<

I used one of these babies on wednesday at Oran Park, and I think I'm going to flip flop and go for the non-backlit one. It's still easy enough to read whilst lapping, and wiring it up is just one less thing to do (especially since I need to use it in 2 cars).

yeah, ferni, no prob with John. I think his margain is so tight on these anyway so he surely wont mind. But I know he's keen to help us out.

Ok, so is anyone keen to get in on this thing from UAS? For the non-backlit ones (yes I look like a tool after talking up the blue ones!).

I will get a price from johnny for say, 5 units and see what he can do. He did point out that whilst these are good, he has had 2 warranty returns and honoured them both with replacement as they were not users fault.

Hey just a warning to anyone thinking of getting of these unit's from the original website posted. Ours have arrived and it turns out the cable between the lap timer and the I.R. receiver is only about 50cms long. The standard cable is 2.5m long. So if you want of these things it might be best to speak to John as apparently all units in Australia come with the 2.5m cable.

I know at least 3 people plus myself who want one. Have you got the pricing for 5 units yet? Please let us know. Cheers

ok, I'm back on the case. That sucks on the 50cm cable thing. a bitch for places like eastern creek where the pit wall is on the inside of the circuit (passenger side). is there an option to order with the 2.5m timer-ir receiver cable?

I spoke to AIM Sports and they said they could fix it "for a fee" and we'd have to send the units to them.

Basically I just cut my cable and spliced in a new length to make it longer with just some electrical tape and heat shrink. Its only a basic 4 core cable.

    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
