This is exactly how I intend to do it.

I'm trying to piece together Innovate Motorsports products for data as a Racepak is out of my budget. You have such nice stuff.

I'm sure this will be a bit of a learning curve, thankfully Racepak has some great YT videos with full explanations. I think a lot of people just log with a tach, I've never had a Racepak and really wanted to tune without wrecking the clutch before I figured it out. Plus, my clutch guy's first question is always "where's the log"?

Well guys our test day was a total crapshow! I didn't organize this track rental, I got a call while we were at Indy from a friend and he was looking to put together a rental for the 22nd. All was looking good he had 10 people locked in and last minute a bunch backed out, from there for whatever reason the track pulled the plug without much communication. I would have paid more $$$ but I guess it wasn't meant to be. We'll be headed to GALOT this week and will test there, I just wish I would have had a day to dial this thing in a bit and learn the Racepak, then use the GALOT test to further tune.

From the life gets in the way files, should have left for GALOT yesterday but troubles at work look like we won't make it. Hopefully testing this weekend at least.

Don't you just hate it when work gets in the way of your drag racing?

Sorry you can't make it Todd, was looking forward to meeting you and understand a little more about running a stick and Racepak from a "beginner's" perspective. Jim Schaechter is a bad influence.

We're still gonna try to make it to VMP next week. Jim is a hard working class racer!
