[n0rm]

[mini-valver]

Well, what a f**king night! It's running rich at the top end but at 3am and with no rolling road, one seat and a laptop with the screen falling off its running pretty f**king well! Next week will be down being mapped on the rollers to gte it spot on but at least I can put some steady miles on it and firgure out where its hesitating etc.

Need to get some wheel bearings now, the ones on the car have evaporated, lol!

Goes alright, so so linear though, feels really gutsy low down and holds it to the limiter which is set at 7250 for now. Once the maps sorted it should be far better! So farking loud too....

 

[n0rm]
