Hi Lee :)

Luckily I mentioned it was a good day out to Nick...the local OPC chief mechanic and he took his family and that video and those pictures :)

He gave me a disc with them all on at Porsche's at Poole Quay tonight....

All the best Brett :)

Hi John :)

My Maxx controller has various logs for Nitrous, Fuel ,Revs etc

The rev log shows that the highest revs I reached on the day was 8100.. lol

I suspect that was a run when due to my maxx playing around (faulty spade terminal), I was fiddling with it and went through the trap at 77 mph ...in SECOND GEAR HOLD lol...i may have sort of forgot to change into third on that run :) :)

That means I would have spent maybe 5 or 6 seconds at over 7000 and up to 8100....which shows how strong our V8`s are :)

And thank you again for that chip you blew me with the rev limiter raised...its BRILLIANT :)

All the best Brett :)
