Dave,

Losing comms on a shift to 2nd is weird. I will look at the code shortly and post something that may help, hopefully tomorrow.

And just to clarify, it only does this when the new feature is selected. The couple times I've done it, it almost feels like a WDT reset or it gets lost in the weeds in an endless loop. I guess if that were the case, you'd see that on the bench. I think I can hear the trans making a slightly different noise, maybe max line pressure? But with TS disconnected, I lose my line press instrumentation. I could plump up a steam gauge to line pressure tomorrow and see what it does doing the reset.

Dave,

I think I know what is happening, and the attached code ought to help (it does on my bench):
Monitor_4144b.abs.s19
Use previous INI.
(73.1 KiB) Downloaded 523 times
This code also ignores the MShift rev limiter when in burnout mode.

Lance,

I tried 4144b tonight. It worked like a champ! I can't find anything wrong with the new burnout mode (aka 2nd gear start). I works just like I had envisioned. Now all I need to do is get the car done so I can take it to the track. Maybe in a couple of weeks.

Thanks,
Dave
:D

Dave,

Okay, great, thanks for testing that! It's nice to have something work the way it was supposed to. Back to work for me on the other outstanding issues then.

Lance.

Lance.

I assume this will be implemented in the V5 code as well?

Tobmag,

Yes, V5.xxx (likely 5.016) will have this burn-out mode implemented very shortly.

Lance.

Hi Lance... Yep been keeping an eye on this one as well...

This would match up to (I suppose) something like what I had on my Volvo Turbo..

When below a set Temp (ie ICE point) the Gearbox would automatically go into 2nd gear start so as to eliminate Tyre spin on pull off in icy conditions..

Would this be possible to add in when doing what the guys above are looking for?

Cheers!
Gordon
