Rob Roy Hillclimb - Sunday Nov-15
Posted: Sun Nov 15, 2009 10:12 pm
This is a quick report of how I went today, will fill in more details later.
In short, in the MGA I came second in the MGA class (someone else showed up with a very quick MGA), and in the Liberty I came first in class in the "Non-MG" class.
My aim was to do it in 26 seconds in the Liberty, and I managed 26.07s. That was the 4th fastest tim eoutright for any MG club member.
(One Geelong member showed up in a WRX STI and beat everyone, but he doesn't count! )

I was using the ECUdatascan to do full logging, so will have some interesting graphs to present soon. Here's a sample:
Graph of RPM, Speed, and Accelerator angle
Google Earth trace. Height of the wall represents speed. You can see me slowly driving back along the return road also.
