Default AUTO CLUB ROLL CALL- NASA So Cal HC

Who is going to the last HC race for summer in so cal? The "tune up for the Nat's" if you will.

I got a garage this time..


Here is the race motivational quote for this event - "I want to be as close to the edge as possible without going over.From the edge you can see all sorts of things you can't see from the middle."

I am always ready for a random tech inspection or dyno...my car is black and white like a cow,with a few grey polka dots,and I want alot more polka dots please. Besides, Kiwi and I can cheat on each other all we want;untill we can copy the design of the Renan/Braun F1 civic diffuser(aka Aluminum batery box), we are going to have to cheat.

Hi Justin!!

Ken did awesome didnt he! I was really glad to see him do well, i worked on that car for a week setting it up. In fact we were up untill 1am the night before the pracice day. The motor in his car is a junkyard b18 !!! and the trans too.

Ken was actually the very first person i met on my first ever day at the track with the viper club. He was always faster than me but i was not sure if he would transition to the front wheel drive cars well.

Sorry you left BW early. Its always great to see u and your dad at the track.

hopefully i will see u guys at cal speed !!

Justin, it was a double shot of NOS! I think the trick was spending the night in Renan's RV/trailer. I was sleeping pretty soundly, but noticed Renan was the first one up and out of the trailer... I don't remember anything.... Woke up and was fast.... Well, the coffee did seem to, ahhhh cleanse the tailpipe.

Afterhours automotive and Renan worked on the car for days! We seemed to get it sorted pretty well. I really owe it to them, my job was easy. I was along for the ride. The car has some more speed in it. Its just been so long since I drove production based cars, let alone front wheel drive. We'll try again at Cal. Speedway.

Renan's diffuser.... Just give hime a good tap and the car will short out. No electric, no workie.

Renan, you wait.... When I figure these cars out, you will be de-throwned!

I think it was my "three wheel motion, yo!" Also, my Bunny Club sponsors....big help!

Bon oui !!! I hope so,I want to beat you on the track not with you piddling around in the paddock.


If the driver can get the ***** to hold the pedal to the metal in 1 and 2, #64 is going to be hard to beat.
With all the good racing I have seen and smack talking, next season I should go to H2 with a K20A3/5spd setup??

Some how Renan was able to splice my tach signal wire to the ECU and the AIM dash at the same time.
So I had a bad feedback to the ecu.
When the car is on the dyno we use the serial port for tuning thus disconnecting the dash.
that is why the car run great on the dyno, but when I connect the dash back to the ecu I have feedback
Only took 4 weekends and about 9 differents person to figure out this one.

I do have to thanks AEM team and Steph as well as Edo and his friend for the hard work they did under 110 degrees at BTW.
Thx a mil of all of you that help me.

Benny,

sound like you are using AEM ECU. If that's the case, why do you have to tap an RPM signal to the MXL? the MXL can communicate directly to the AEM ECU using RS232. This enable the MXL to read and display whatever the ECU read.

I'll be there all the way from Sac (not running HC of course). Anyone want to share a garage if they're even still available?

Yes I know that. that's the way it is.
But Renan also connected a direct wire from the harness to the AIM
