Track was kinda crappy...

It was HELLA crowded... The timeslip printer was broken (so we got handwritten e.t. slips with no other info.) and my car sucks again.

Wes was in the animal, rippin' off 12.70's as usual at least. I think Stephen ran another 13.5 or .6... Mike pulled a 13.5 out of his 'San...

My car bucked and bogged to a 13.09 (I dunno the mph) - but was knocking like crazy (even on a near 30% Toluene mix).

I CAN'T STAND THE FACT THAT WHEN I DISCONNECT THE BATTERY ON MY CAR IT FORGETS *EVERYTHING* IT EVER KNEW AND INVALIDATES ALL MY TUNING. ****ING THING IS PISSING ME OFF AND I WANT TO SELL THE CAR AND BUY SOMETHING THAT ISN'T GOING TO ARGUE WITH ME.

At least my clutch isn't slipping. meh.

Yeah, I too was bummed that I had no info other than ET.
And it was as crowded as I've ever seen the track! Congrats to Steven for knocking down a 13.6...so it's NOT my car, it's ME!
Nice to see such a strong Suby showing. My helmet goes back into the closet, again...

Does AEM offer something for the WRX yet? I was just reading today that it can monitor and adjust based off of 5 wire UEGO sensors and additional EGT sensors.

Self-tuning hasn't proved to be the Holy Grail that it was touted to be in the AEM systems from what I hear...

As far as I know the Link is the only plug and play standalone for the WRX.

I'm going to get to play with Brandon's Supra AEM mated to a FJO wideband on the dyno soon. What fun! *crosses fingers*

Subaru ECU's are so weird... Just did a couple of HARD 2nd and 3rd gear pulls on this cold/dry night and NOT ONE INDICATED KNOCK EVENT.

I mean I'm happy - but WTF? I guess we'll see at the track this Friday!

stock is recommended since our trannies are no bulletproof.
