Alex - The lesser amount of pit stops may help but i just watched the Audi's on TV at Sebring and one smashed their own lap record from last year by 2 seconds so i think they may have some pace also

Rich - Did you find out what was causing the missfire in the end?

Cheers Spadge...

Spadge,

Not a mis fire mate. Was cutting out and not starting. No i havent found out what the problem was, but since Ryan put a new loom in for me, it hasnt done it, so im hoping it was that. Your ecu you sold me will be in my car along with a spare grp a coil just in case.
