    If NonAznTim goes then he will have a spot in the trailer but im not sure if hes going yet.

     

    Other than that its open for whoever wants to travel down. I also have the bed of the truck which can fit a bike, maybe two. But then someone would need to take a car down so there would be enough seats.

    So what are the travel plans looking like? We leaving the Friday before and coming back Sunday? I want to make sure to put time off in.

    I will probably leave Friday morning early and then get back early AM Monday. Figure 11 hours one way after stopping for fuel, food, whatever.

    idk who is riding with who.

    It's bullshit technology.   I pray the other mfg's don't jump on board with this design, but I doubt it will happen anytime soon anyway with how problematic they currently are

    GM is coming out with a DOHC small block. I think it will be for the vette only, atleast for now.

    Yea a swapping of the coils is going to go down. Probably plugs as well.

    @Jester_ So newer and nicer..... you go denali?

    I got a ram this time around. I liked my 1500 Laramie so I got a 2015 2500 Laramie with the Cummins with 20k on it. Its a nice feeling knowing it has a warranty, was always uneasy with the other truck not knowing what might happen. But that moves the toy hauler back to February of next year :/ oh well. 

    There is also alot of little things I like about the Cummins over the powerstroke and dmax.

    Not sure what else that could be. 

    I borrowed a truck with the 5.4 once to go to mid ohio and about 2 minutes from the track it had a misfire. Thankfully I found a shop beside a NAPA store and they got it fixed within a half hour, was a bad coil.

    I mean the truck was pretty comfy......... Is it a bus?

    I wish lol, just a nicer newer truck. 

    The old one was having head gasket issues that I didnt want to deal with. 

    It will be nice to get in after a hot track day and turn on the AC seats, missed having those. 

  14. Lap Timers, What do you use and why?

    Oh you never got that lap timer to work? Man, when I was doing research it seemed like a solid option. Maybe I'll just go with the SOLO non-DL that Dan is selling.

    Il be honest, its quite an investment for a timer. 

    But its worth it when you arent messing around trying to create a new track, trying to get a few pieces of hardware working from ebay or if nobody has a beacon out for the XT. 

    Plus the solo also has some of my laps in it for you.

    I have the AIM solo like Dan's cause well..........I wanted to be like Dan.  I like the AIM because it is very easy to set up and download data (more or less turn it on and go.  If the track is not in the database walk over to track edge hit learn new track, hit the add button name and your done).  Software for data review is easy to use and has a playback feature with tables so you can see your speed at certain points in a lap.  Ryan's GPS timer was great as long as you are willing to spend a lot of time getting it set up.  Took Ryan about a month to get his up and running.  But once he figured it out it worked well.  All in all he had about $225 in the set up with the phone etc.  The phone is a must have.  The first week he had it he spent his time between sessions downloading the data to his phone so he could see his lap times.  For what Dan is asking for the AIM is a really good deal.  I previously had the XT but if your planning on running with N2 they can be pretty lax about setting up a beacon and even when they did none of our timers ever picked it up.  Hence the reason we all went to GPS based. 

    The AIM is the way to go for ease of use and getting basic data like Ron said. 

    The gpx pro I have can be used as a dash as it has a tach and logs all the bike parameters as well, and can do suspension travel, brake pressure etc... but it's a pita to setup a new track and starting points.  

     

    The aim can plug into the ecu of the bike and log some things but it's kidna limited.
