heh. whoever it was can take the rear guard next time! don't know about anyone else, but it was real close. not so keen on selling my wrx to pay for a damaged audi and probably Andrews boot!

on a lighter note, cool spot. i have a 6x9 scout tent, if we can track down some more canvas we should stay the night in the summer

good meet.

Pity you guys cant keep up with a gravel express *rolls eyes* About the braking you should have a enough room infront of you to stop safely.... think there is an infringement notice for all of you guys if ya hit the car infront :P

or you could fork out some cash and get some better brakes???

LOL, the boot on the Leggy would have been ok 'cause I have a tow bar ;D

Following distances and brakes were fine, just not sure about the judgement to stop right on the corner of an intersection when everyone following you is expecting you to go around the corner first.

as i said failing to stop short. It wouldn't of been their fault it would of been yours for Failing to stop short $150 fine, dont know about demerits though.

No one was harmed, no one bought it up when we stopped at Bucklands so it cant be too much of a big deal.

Next meet karitane via seacliff?? Nice roads for kaning it on??

i turned up at like 2:20 thinking that people would be early but na i had enough time to drive to town and back up to find 1 guy in a audi waiting(forgotten his name lol)

btw there was enough space more the fact that when going around a corner your sort of not expecting a dead stop

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
