Clive's 400 BHP Super GT RX-8 Race Car

Not been near the car for a couple of weeks due to work and a few days away etc.

This weekend providing they arrive today, I need to do a full brake pad change then start have a look at plumbing the lights in that you kindly donated to the cause.

I know you said pick up a trailing coil wire but the destructions say pick up a rev counter wire ?.

May have to set it up at the track, as in my dark dingy underground garage the neighbours get twitchy when I rev the car

Your tacho revs come from canbus Clive so no dice.
Choose a trailing trigger wire and splice into it at ecu plug.
It will only get half rpm input but does not matter its just where you set it..you ground the wire to set..i found a layby lol todo the 7.
Just need to bounce of the limiter once...you do that a few times a race mate lol...

Changed the brake pads for a different material as these lasted two events and I realised I could not have done even one more lap with the rears as they were a fag paper thick!

I recon the next lap would have meant no rear brakes, just fronts and probably locked up and gone straight on at the hairpin.

Ironically, I was told after the race that had I crossed the line a split second earlier that I would have have had to do another lap. In other words had I not lifted off due to the accident the race would have needed to do another lap.

These are the fronts with loads of meat left----not!!
