What tune was on there before?
Peak numbers are similar to my APR 2+, but curves look more like my old Viezu.

DNA previous and that was after Bluefin. Spectune now comes on heaps sooner and feels a lot smoother and more responsive. Power is a little better going by my butt dyno.

Nice Donny boy!! Is that with any supporting mods or phase 1?

Ummm, a few mods... TBE, FMIC, HPFP, intake to name a few...

Besides, you knew the car previously!

Roofrack, I've got a video where I let that car overtake on the straight at Lakeside. I'll let you know when I upload it.

I don't think you need to let anyone overtake 0.o You are way too fast haha.

Thanks Eggy. Believe it or not, though, there are faster cars than mine on the straight
Regardless, this video I speak of was from a very boring happy laps, so...ya know...

an example of what not to do if you have a fast car, treat long straights like a 1/4 mile, but you take corners like an old lady and has no consideration at all to other drivers.

below was from a timed track day with full PPE gear and stuffs.

he basically ruined most of that session and did my lap time no good. fortunately he was moved down to the lowest group right after that session (and then probably ruined others lap times in that lowest group).

same etiquette should apply to Happy Laps unless you like to be inconsiderate to others in the group and feel comfortable to have 1 or more cars right behind your back on the corners (i personally don't like having cars too close behind my back for safety reasons and hence i always take it easy on the long straight and allow others overtake whenever the gap behind is close, so we can all enjoy and be Happy ).

Please note, for Happy Laps, the speed / pace is definitely restricted for everyone's safety!

Very annoying Nat, I can see where your coming from.

Very annoying Nat, I can see where your coming from.

+1 This behaviour massively frustrates me too but that has only happened to be a few times thankfully. Especially when I only have 155bhp on tap it can get very annoying :/

Nat, you need more air in your tyres. And that guy was an idiot. He should've held his line, not sped up and let you pass.

Heya, who's got free front seat I can shotgun with, if I could, please?

[team_v]

Confirmation notes have been sent out to everyone, please respond by Monday so we can give any reserves a chance in the event anyone can't make it.

I always have a spare seat if peple can't find a car to ride shotgun in.

Will have to be out for this one - so the next one on the reserve list has now gone to the starting line up!

[team_v]

Okay, just waiting on the last couple of people to get back to me before I lock in final numbers with QLD Raceways tonight.

[Machine]

So who's gonna shotgun Heather?
BTW I'll be at Lakeside Fri for VW driving experience, so I'll warm it up for y'all
