Default DATA LOGGER FINDINGS

Hi all I raced at Maritime in Kent over the weekend and used the data logger for the first time....

Interesting results and a useful tool.

Turns out with my gearing the motor was 'topping out (13.5) at 45,000 RPM and was holding it for around a second, so we started adding more gearing until the logger read an instantaneous top out. with a 6.77:1 FDR the sweet spot was found for the straight and the infield punch was not affected at all, the only other adjustment made from the previous settings was to raise the Boost Start to 2000 and Iwill play more with that setting in future runs.

I believe that Ihave more power to gain from additional gearing but I ran out of runs. Final run testing temps were around 140F, car was very quick but the car was handling oddly (due to the driver) and I hope that someone with a better driving abilities will find the readings useful.
