My 318 IS - Trackday edition

[getouth]

Well worth my 2 minutes. Keep us posted skies

Gave the car some well deserved love. Changed the oil. New brake fluid.
Did a thorough wash and cleaned the inside. Track day tomorrow! :D


Sorry for my cheapo wheels. :(

Love this pic. Looks so purposeful. What are the wheel and tire specs?

[BlueSkies]

Thanx! It really does.

Love your car. Makes me craze a track day.

[BlueSkies]

Here's a pic from yesterday.

Love it! Subscribed to your youtube channel too.

One question. What steering wheel are you using? Momo?

[evandael]

sorry if you covered it, but what's your data acquisition setup? it looks very nice on your videos.

<- So cool!

[BlueSkies]

Yep. A MOMO-wheel. Don't know what kind, though.

I use a Race Technology DL1. I found a used one for 1000 SEK. (approx. $ 150)
You could use Race Chrono with an Andriod Phone, but with a reduced update frequency compared to my setup.

To get the data to the video, i use RaceRender 2.

Later this summer I will try to connect the RPM signal to the logger, so I'll get it in the videos as well.

Soooo awesome. Gotta love an m42 car out there being used for its true purpose.

clean....

Finally somebody putting BBSs to work.

[BlueSkies]

Mounted new droplinks to reduce bodyroll last Sunday.




Cheap! ~$15 for each side.
And it works really well.


Did another trackday yesterday to try them out.
