anyone know how to use detcans and fancy jumping in the passenger seat on the autobahn?

i dont think mapping it on the ring itself would be a good idea surely? but a 5hr drive on the autobahn?

lets see if chip fancies it, im sure he's backseating

wait, here's the plan!

we get 2 way radios, and hook one up to the detcans and the other give to stu in his car.

also someone in the passenger seat of mine reads out the AFR readings.


stu then sits there shouting "up a bit, down a bit, left a bit" over the radio to the guy in the passengerseat who types the appropriate values into the laptop...

...job done!

Seeing as none of the usual pervs have picked up on this....

I have a bed spare (just got to let Phil (my Ring co pilot/ housemate / mehanic) know that he needs to get a new room and then we're sorted

In my pad, the Passionford Calender has been on June since January

On a more serious note - just 4 sleeps to go, and I've go to test my bros turbo, and do an oil change!

Cheers

Alex. Would it be posible to blag a lift around the ring? Really impressed at bedford with the handling and would be great to see what it's like round the ring

I will keep my eye out for an empty seat

I reckon we should make a rule. All passengers pay for the lap

Can we add "unless their name is Jay" ?

I'd like to get in a few passenger laps so I know what to expect in September when I drive there

Thats the usual form...

Unless the person is a season ticket holder... in which case a charity donation of the same amount is the order of the day
