Feb 1-3 2013 (Circuit of the Americas)
-When i tracked the car in Cota FEB 1-3 i got a CEL and the car went into limp mode on the second track day. The codes i got were: P219A Bank 1 Air/Fuel Ratio Inbalance, P000A Intake (a) Camshaft Position Sensor Slow Response Bank 1, P0011 Intake (a) Camshaft Position Timing - Over Advanced (Bank1)
I cleared the codes to see if they would pop up again and they did not, i continued tracking for another day and no problems what so ever the car ran fine.

Feb 23 2013 (Harris Hill Road Mazda Raceway)

1st Session
-Yesterday after 5 laps around the track i lost power on the straight for a second or two and my check engine light flashed twice but went away, i kept driving since it was a timed event and it did not do it again.

2nd Session
-Next session as i turned the car on it puffed a huge cloud of white smoke but it went away and stopped smoking, as i pulled out of the grid it puffed a cloud of smoke again according to a friend in the paddock. As i came back into the paddock my belt started whining but then went away after a couple of seconds.

3rd Session
-No smoke this time but i lost power on the same straight as session #1 but this time my car lost almost all power and sounded like it was misfiring and sounded like a boxer engine. I pulled into the paddock with my dash looking like a christmas tree and the car struggled to idle, i immediately turned her off and checked the codes i got P0011 Intake (a) Camshaft Position Timing - Over Advanced, and cylinder 2 misfire. I thought it might be an electronic glitch like at Cota but i cleared the codes and the car would not turn on.

Anybody have a clue what could be wrong? My tuner suggest flashing back to stock and taking it to the dealer since he says a couple of cars have had bad ecu's.

Here is the list of engine mods for reference:

-4100 miles on engine (bought it back in June 2012)
-Dynotronics Ecutek 93 octane tune
-Agency Power Lightweight pulley
-TRD drop in
-Motiv Concepts high flow cat
-Invidia Catback

Codes i got at Circuit of the Americas FEB 1-3


Its one of your plugs. Bank 1 is plug burned out. All you have to is change it. Its a misfiring plug. Theres four banks. And only one misfiring . Take it to mechanic to show you which one is bank 1 and change it yourself. Thats what happened to my mr-s long time ago. Good luck cganging it
