Thanks for the help today Danny, greatly appreciated, look forward to working with you to bring the capabilities of the stock ecu up to where they need to be for us;)

No problems.. capabilities of this pcm is far greater than any aftermarket ecu I know of.. Controlling it to do what you want is the tricky part :)

Haha!!!! And you and Spiro a lot of money Bev!! :roflmbo::bowdown:

One for the road, as I said to you earlier guessed the neutral line pretty well sir spiro, keep this vid for comparison in a few weeks :turboboink::roflmbo:

6BOOST

99% of the forum members here won't know WHY you have a shot of the wheel at 250fps..

Its a beautiful tool for chassis tuners!

As known in the pro stock world, its all about "wheel speed wheelspeed WHEELSPEED!"... lol

But yes... we would love that camera come pro stock day :) What camera is it?

Sorry to blast you but street tuners and pro shops where never ment to get along  see you on the street.

We get along very well over here and the help and friendship is fantastic. For example I had a Expensive Daewoo workshop let me operate their dyno most of Saturday for nothing. I go out of my way to help others out and people do the same for me.....everybody wins. The 60' comment wasn't a critical one....just wish you could see my body language to appreciate my intent.

Awesome data there in the slo-mo!

In addition to my previous post, what struts are in the front? Rear squat looks good, but it seems to un-load heavily on the gear change to 2nd - may need a little more bump valving (from just what I can see in those vids anyway)

Haha, he wasn't speaking poorly of everyone in general, it takes a lot of experience looking at chassis setup, making changes and understanding their outcome to know why we shoot cars in slo mo. Some words for you to investigate to be part of the 1% would be anti-squat, neutral line, instant centre, centre of gravitycompression, extension, and basically the plethora of information that will come with those words on any website you will find info. It'll probably never be of any use to you unless your really into drag racing, but hey, at least you'll be part of the 1% :spoton:

True, however being the only person on the planet able to exploit their capabilities atm is a whole different ballgame Danny :roflmbo: We look forward to being able to share in your vast experience :beerchug:

To be honest I purchased it off ebay second hand, however you can buy a really good one cheap, I have 2 slow mo camera's, I just prefer that one, the other one I got is a Canon EX-FC100, I think it was $199?? I still can't believe how few people use a camera for chassis tuning, even with every sensor known to man in a pro stock car, slo mo video still comes in handy :dontknow:

I apologise if I have taken your intentions and wording the wrong way toad, as you have said its difficult to get someones intentions at times from text. With so many people throwing cirticism, it may have been a case of bad timing rather than bad intentions :blush:

We are actually looking for a little seperation Pat, what may look to some like squat in that video is actually weight transfer after initial plant, I will make more and more changes as the car progresses, however if we hit the tyre too hard atm till we get the power, 2 step and driver all in tune on the launch, it will simply bog and go nowhere. The front struts I believe are the pedders single adjustable type, Spiro may give you more exact specifications, I'll play more with these when we get a numerous amount of other things sorted, atm I am more interested in the first 60ft and the last 660ft than anything in between :3gears:

Fair call on that Kyle - hopefully I can get out to the track with the Envy boys and we can do some research and play with the set-up :dontknow:
