Ok. I am actively running towards completing my MBA. My last full season was in 2008 in a VW ITB car. I have run only a few races since then, and can't wait until next year! I also have been engineering and crewing on Chuck's car since it's first season back from getting wrecked at Mid Ohio.dryenko":30cp8m3x said:
I can say from first hand experience that we could make CIS type injection work great for IT (though I converted to megasquirt controlled digifant to save some weight, add some area under the torque curve and make future parts sourcing easier), it worked pretty well with the GP spec motor as well (though low speed corners were rough with the 4 speed box), but with the better breathing FP motor we had to start from scratch and take a completely different approach to getting what we needed out of the Bosch continuous flow injectors. Where we ended up was unorthodox enough, and hard enough that I don't know if we would even do it again, and I don't expect anyone else ever would bother. That is why I think that Mark is right. The fuel injection playing field should be a bit more level. If no one has written a letter requesting digifant style electronic injection, someone should.
You are correct the 1.8 F car is heavier. I would still trust the brakes on it, but that is a guess not based on anything more than the HP Golf and the FP A1.
