As for the tunnel, well I think I had a little semi on lol. I have been through that tunnel a few times but 11 coupes on full chat-awesome!!!

Thanks for seeting it all up too paul, was the best driving roads i have been on for awhile. I will definitely be coming to the next one. MattW thanks very much, i was a little surprised on the a50, i was worried that yours would be quite abit faster, but noticed above 5500rpm i could gain. (means that my power figure at powerstation can't be too far off) Your car looks awesome from behind, very nice colour. When i came past you on that bumpy part i wasn't expecting it to be that bouncy and my sister nearly came out the seat This was a top meet with top coupes, looking forward to the next. Ash

Ash You were definitely gaining on me, but I had a boost control problem. My AVCR had learnt a bit more since being set up so I had to rectify it. Running better now

I remember you saying it was boosting too high, I was only running 1.25 bar, but could see the difference between the 28r and the 28rsr above 5.5k. Those avcr are great controllers but abit of a pain to setup, i wish i got one instead of the blitz as you can have different boost levels for each gear and rev range. Was good to meet you, need to have a better chat next time Ash

(means that my power figure at powerstation can't be too far off) You only got 234 at the wheels at powerstation? I think on a different rolling road you would get 270 at the wheels, same flywheel figure. I got 266 at the wheels, (but was running less than that yesterday because it screwed up after 5000rpm) I dont know how much I was down by, but there is definitely nothing wrong with your car.

I think yours will always be quicker if you rev it right to the top. my power and torque peaks are a bit too "peaky", I need to beef up the areas around them to get a faster coupe with the same power and torque. Might make another trip to the RR at some point for a bit of tweaking....
