    Hey! Hey! That's me at Turn 5 holding the double yellow on the pace lap. I saw you were registered as FE2. Did you get the 2.0 MZR upgrade installed? Last I heard you had the SADEV transaxle but still with the 2.3.

    I had lunch both days with those announcers. Nice guys.

    Good, hi-quality video. Not that usual 720p crap we get from our AiM SmartyCAM GP. I notice you don't have gear or tach display. Do you have an AiM data logger since you have the wheel? You can export the captured ECU data to CSV then maybe import it into your video editor; I've done that with Race Render.

    Default Setup advice

    Cool video..
    But you are really loose entry and mid corner. As a suggestion, at M-O I would not run more than 35mm of front ride height measured above the aluminum at the splitter with 7-10mm of rake with driver in car and 5 gallons of fuel. That is for the loose condition on corner entry. The car snaps mid turn on turn in. For this I would recommend 4mm toe out front total. Also, run the front anti roll blade at 45 degrees and the rear at the softest setting. These settings are based on 4 rounds of preload front and 3 rounds in the back with 1mm total toe in for the rear. Then adjust accordingly.
    Happy Motoring

    No 2.0L for me yet. Still running the 2.3L and at this pace of racing it will take a bit to get the cash to afford it.

    I use newer GoPro Mini11s with a very custom setup and a separate power supply. When they produce video they are awesome, but they fail frequently and are not user friendly.

    This Mid Ohio weekend was the first race with my AiM gear all working. These videos took a while as it took a long time to figure out the CSV configuration for Dashware which I use to overlay the data. I could in theory do a tach now. I likely won't do the gear display until the new engine is in.

    I should use my brake bias adjuster more, but it's so unpredictable that I don't really know how much adjustment has been given. Especially, if I reverse the direction on the dial it can take three turns before it actually moves. That said, a simple forward one or two clicks may have helped that day at least as far as some corner entries went. I'll have to go through alignment/ride height figures. I also need to look into the adjustable rear ARB as right now I run unconnected which lifts my front wheel a lot.

    Working on Sunday's Quali-Race now. I was going to race at Grattan this weekend then backed out; so they'll probably be done over the weekend into early next week.
