yeah, but everything else was gentle.  

Paul has a habit of making things......faster/dangerous.

Lets just say that on average micko and paul drive faster than russ and Liz.  

which is not an endigtment on russ or liz, just that micko and paul are maniacs!

:D

Thanks Alex - I'll remember to keep my slow unconfident ass out of cruises.... don't want to hold you guys up or anything.

C'mon Lizzah,

I dont have any complaints - besides, Id much rather share breakfast with you than with paul :D

like I said - theres two types of cruises...

..and that wasnt the type where paul gets behind you and snow-ploughs you to the finish line!!

(thank god)

as far as unconfident etc goes - I think the hills are good for that, because you can generally find your own pace.

Always gonna get different rates of driving, but its probably dangerous to try and keep up with a car as modified as pauls when you're driving a semi-stock one.

Yer aidwin has been hiding. Who knows where?

Get out of the govt. U just waiting for that long service and pension plan they have. I know:)

so are you seeing him on the weekend or something??

govt - preaching to the converted. but for now it pays better than private enterprise anyways.:uh-huh:

I think Russ does a damn fine job with his N/A.... oh and me... well after ploughing through a car and 4 traffic lights and also the minor incident at that cruise.... hrrmmmm I was actually beginning to get my confidence back and I thought I did well at the cruise and even better on Friday night.

Nothing like an awesome comment on ones driving to change all that.....

Liz, like I said - comment was not about your driving ... more about Paul's.

as for micko - he's driving a GTR.

re the brekky cruise - you had fun and you didnt bin it. therefore you did a good job.

the whole point of having those cruises is to have fun. provided that you do that, it doesnt really matter how fast you're going.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
