Ok well I'm no computer expert etc
but 32 or 64 bit that's too do with the CPU isn't it?

What specs will I need too run it properly without any issues?
Ie intel core or intel i5 or amd seperon etc
1.6g or 2.2g CPU speeds etc
2gig ram 4gig ram 1/2gig ram etc

cheers - jus don't wanna get one that won't work right with it

If I were wanting to make a profile that would be suited for World GT in an Associated 10r5 what would be the best way of starting out.There are some spots on my track where I would like the advance to kick in alot sooner.Is this possible with this speedo or no. Would I just have to make large drops in the frequencies to do this. I ran profiles for twelth scale and they seemed to be pretty good. It was really comparable to the v200 with the timing at 2( KO was still faster) We were trying to spec the class a little bit but decided that most of us want to be able to run them full tilt. I ended trying a profile from a Factory driver and Man what a difference in speed!!! Though my lap times were not any faster it really seems now I have alot more to use power wise, down the back straight it was Way fast and was aksked to turn it down as some were using GTB's. So anyways really just looking for some info on making my own profiles and was kinda wanting to share what I found out last night and tonight when.

Hi M8 yes its for 1/12th,for 10.5 Noval Ballistic ,the other I poster was also for a 1/12th but for 4.5 the power curve is sooth down low.From what I can tell the timing you set in the speedy covers the whole range of throttle movement,not like the Tekin where you can set it up in time intervals,but from what i understand is you have to have the load off the motor before the timing really comes it if you read what Ko says it state this,I would like some comments about what I just said to see what other people think,just to be able to understand brushless motors and the way they work.
