I hope others are having better luck than me with new s/w. I have geared from a 4.5-7.0 started with the recomended setting and ended up maxing it out. with it maxed out and geared to a 5.2 is the best lap times, but still not as good of lap times as the 107 with a 4.9 fdr. Any suggestions? Freespooling it on the bench it sounds VERY fast, but it just doesnt have it on the track. I went down a tooth and up on the motor timing, fixing to run the first heat now, will post after.

If you are only getting 110stock software and no 230 and 231...that means your "settings.db3" and "version_control.ini" files are NOT using the latest one that Shawn forward.....now, go thru this with me.
(1) Go to your Speed Passion folder under your C:/Program Files, within the SP folders...what are the "DATES" of the above 2 files read? They must be some date after MARCH 8, 2010....the files Shawn fowarded were both dated March 8, depends on when you are you copying and overwriting, they must be March 8 or later...these 2 files must be replaced with the newer version in order for those who use the 230 and 231 software.
(2) If they are indeed March 8 or later...restart your computer and start the SP program and hook up the speedo...you should see the newer software.
If not...I am sorry, you should go buy Tekin instead. No Supercharger for you.....it is not WHAT you pick, it is WHO they pick (just kidding)...
Really, we has been doing this update since the 091231 version from King Golden...and I have never heard anyone of our team has troulbe uploading the new software.
BTW....I am a PC and I use Window XP cause I know it works.

Yes vista can be a problem apparantly you need to copy them in "administrator" mode to get it to work, dont ask me how to do it just heard it needs to be done to get it to work on vista

Still needs alittle more punch but overall has been .2 better on the lap times then the best I could get with the 107. Thanks SP! If anybody has any other suggestions please post.

This is with a 96/40x2.16=5.1(Cyclone TC).
I am still not happy with the 1st 10-15' of acceleration, but tonight, if the track is still open, im gonna try 13/2 or 1.
This Software, im finding that it tends to work best when you don't gun it. Let the software do it's thing. If you go full throttle off the bat, it might lag a bit.
Im gonan try
4/9
9/3
12/7
13/2
15/2
15/1
tonight and see if i can get another .5 secs off my time. On Monday i got 11.0. Wednesday i got 10.7. Last week my fastest was 12.4 so i know im going in the right direction. Now, hopefully someone can see something i don't so i can get this SW optimized.
LMK how yours turns up..i'd love to compare notes.

First time you run the program right click the SpeedPassion program and choose "Run as administrator". Then the database would rebuild.
