2 Boxsters at CMP

I ran an event last weekend at CMP with Just Track It and HPDEJunkie.com and it was a blast. There was only one other Boxster there, fellow forum member Barchetta (there was one more scheduled but work got in the way). It was my first time at CMP and it was great.

On Sunday afternoon we ran some sessions, and this third session was probably one of my most fun sessions ever. We took turns doing lead/follow and it was a blast.

This was my first experiment using the RaceCapture/Track data logger, and I was pretty impressed that the OBDII data (RPM and TPS) were able to update as rapidly as they did. When I use Harry's with an OBDLink dongle, the performance is horrible (https://youtu.be/kIeSeVtGrlY). RaceCapture/Track is supported now by HLT but I couldn't get it to work with HLT, it kept reporting the GPS accuracy at 500+ feet and wouldn't trigger any laps. This was my first time using the free DashWare software which turned out to be pretty cool. it does seem to modify the audio and make it a little tinny, I am going to have to work on that. Note that the brake is calculated from braking acceleration, what seemed to work pretty decent is to set up the brake pedal to light up from .2 to .8 braking G's. At least it looks cool

Our goal was to break 2:00, and we had some 1:59's in this session, but our best sessions were first thing Sunday morning when it was nice and cool, we both got high 1:58's/low 1:59's.

There is more time to be had (that is the ongoing challenge ) but it was a lot of fun.

I am travelling for work right now but I am making another video with some more chases, and some spills and thrills.
