I gotta say their software department sucks.... they need to hire you to create better programs lol

But the AIM SOLO DL hardware is da bomb!!!!

My guess is that it updates ECU database studio has. In the end, the selected ecu profile(GT86) is transferred to AIM and the hardware will read correctly. BTW Delta 10C == Delta 18F

hahaha, ok, makes sense

Saturday was too hot.. I think I blew the DI seals.

We generally back off once we see 215F on the AIM; this will read around 230 at the engine outlet.

That's the whole idea! The S2k community is like this, but no other community is, particularly the SCCA/NASA ones, where everyone only wants to win.

Any idea on the best way to do this? I can imagine a thread would be the simplest but also the most difficult to use method. Maybe a shared google drive folder? Or if we want to get really fancy I could play with making a webpage of some sort...

For what it's worth, I'd like to be able to filter logs by car, driver, track and date. Perhaps we can put together a site..

I think it would be valuable enough for me that I would put one together if people actually think they would use it. I just don't want to spend the time putting together such a site and have no one use it.

Typically, it's a post-event thread that people post data on for that specific event. That way, it's apples-to-apples in terms of driving conditions.

The down side of that though is those threads kind of get lost. Despite day to day differences, I was more interested in Jeff's data from the last norcal 86cup event than his from yesterday because our mods were closer. The more data a person can pull together the more they can learn when they have a question about some aspect. Frankly I'd love to be able to parse through a dozen different data logs with different mods and tires and such for turn 2 at T-Hill. I'm hoping others might like that also.

It all really comes down to the community. We need everyone to first, get a data logger, then second, post their logs and, finally, get group feedback on that log.

I'm willing to donate some analysis time to further the community, but at the same time, keep in mind that coaching and data analysis is also how I pay my bills.

My perspective on it is to facilitate my own analysis and hopefully help other people do the same. What I would hope is that with time I (we) will get to the point where we can really make use of your services. As it is now for me, I have such low hanging fruit on my laps that it isn't even worth talking about having you look at my data. That said it is fun to see what other people are doing on some corners and specifically the techniques they are using.

I will try and toss together a mockup in the next few days if I can get the time and see what people think of it.

My goal is to teach everyone to be able to read their own data. This is part of how you become a deadly fast driver.

It's also why the cars we set up typically get very few parts, but are still putting down fast times. We fine tune things to maximize efficiency, rather than throw as many parts at the car as possible.
