Anybody run the above on a modded scoob?

Whats the opinion on the racelogic TC or alternatives?

Anyone?

lol That's what your right foot's for

 

I know.. and I can do it pretty well.. just wondered if the 'proper' solutions were any good, or worth having..

Sounds like a no..

Im capable of feeling when the car is loosing traction, so must be a no..

David

 

IMHO if TC is wheel independant then it is good, if it drops power to all 4 wheels (like my old car) it is Sh!te!!
My old car used to Retard the timing to drop power and it felt like ages until it came back on..

I think 'good old' left foot/right foot control is better

Now Anti lag/launch control MMMmmmmmm

David, Pat did with the pectel was highly amusing to watch...although not so good on the engine and gearbox combos he was running back then

Still 1 bar at idle can't be bad...

 

tim could you point pat at my email address.. as I would rather discuss me attempting to break my gearbox and engine off board.

David,

I looked in2 the Racelogic TC system about 2 years back when i had an AP paddle clutch & L&B flywheel on the mota, as at the time it appeared to be the solution to spinning all 4 wheels off the line during a 6K launch. However the more I looked into and the more tuning places I talked to about it the less attractive it was. Finally I decided to spend the £1K on other "stuff" as the comment "if u think gearboxes aren`t lasting you now, wait & see how long they last you with TC & LC" was enough to put me off. As i thought the money would be well spent if it even saved one gearbox. That and the fact that the system had never been fitted to a scoob before Ended up taking the paddle out and fitting a more slippery clutch (reads gearbox friendly).

Ok end of thread

David,

Probably not what you're looking for - but I reckon you maybe the kind of guy that's mad enough to try it.

David,

Bear in mind it was about 2 years ago I looked at it so maybe the price is more "user friendly" now? Also with a standard(ish) clutch it might not be so bad on boxes. But as we all know the scoobs box is made of chocolate, so go at it 2 hard an it`ll bite u in the butt (reads wallet) Incedentally I`m speaking from experience here (on box number 5)

hmm... it wouldnt be going on a std car... so doubt std clutch

Cheers

If you've seriously modded clutch and gearbox should be alright. Two of my mates use race logic one on 750bhp skyline and one on 600bhp supra and they love it don't know anyone who uses it on scooby though.

 

There's some company between London and Brum does a pretty good job. Wheel independent, linked to braking and diff control...

...mmmm - yes near - errrrrrrr Banbury. A friend of mine uses them - thinks they are great - mind you they can be a tad expensive.
