biggsy replied to the thread S550 First Track Build.I agree! I had an issue with wiring and they were very helpful in figuring it out.Now it's not that I'm having issues with the module, but more so that its difficult for me to get used to. When I downshift, I naturally rotate my heel to blip... (see full post)
RinerAuto replied to the thread SN95 RinerAutomotive's CAM-T Mustang.Well the autocross season is over. Overall I'm really happy with how the car did and how we performed.

I could guess. Or better yet assume others are guessing. Why deviate away from the... (see full post)
navseng replied to the thread Track Time Videos.Oh for sure, I know the advantages. I'm running a 35 psi pressure relief system on my car. It's all un tested still, but it should work well.Maybe we can convince him to add another gauge there.. For research purposes (see full post)
