Worse than that, our cars are fitted with Dash 2 displays, they have water and oil alarms go off the whole dash flashes black and white that its actually quite off putting. Jamie ignored it for 7 laps at Donington Park and a lap at Snett. We are looking at the data now.

Well my services aren't very costly and i'll promise to watch the gauges closely.....

Just lack a bit of talent but don't let a little thing like that get in the way....

I'll wait for your call

Nathan has an Aim dash in his, It is growing on me, particularly the live lap times etc, but there is a lot of data on those digi dashes to take in during a race where you may get 1-2 secs a lap to look down and I still dont think you can beat gauges for a quick status update.

If I was hiring out race cars I would simply install a big red light on the dashboard that lit when oil temp / water temps / oil pressure hit certain values.

I would then have an agreement with the driver that when that when the light comes on they stop immediately or foot the bill if they decide to carry on racing.

Then again, Nathan seems to be able to to recall precise oil temps on a per lap basis so maybe I just have no spare capacity in racing mode..

manny, you are geared to just drive fast whereas Nathan is there to multi task and fiddle (i think he should be the manager and you the driver....you are faster)

Gits.

I just take longer to learn circuits, I was quicker at Donny

More likely that I just have more to lose if it explodes so tend to look at oil and water temps a bit more

El_Gordo · 29-09-2009, 10:03 PM

I was quicker at Spa

Truth be told there is nothing in it, our race lap speeds are pretty much the same, and Snetterton is one of my favourite tracks.

I am better looking though

Tell you what thoug Shimmy, having seen your Spa times, its criminal if you dont get yourself in a race car next year
