Mooty, you really need to stop texting while shifting.

Private parts, lice... fantastic.

I think he was sitting still on his iPad at Alices. This was pretty good... some of his others, wow.

That said, I think Apple needs to do a special study with Mooty to fix the auto-correct. If it can, it can fix ANY speeeellling issues!

For comparison, here is mine from a few months ago on my GT2. The Range 2 and 3 are bounces on the rev limiter (and even then, few rev limit bounces can make it into range 3). I'm certain there is no way to exceed a range 3 on a GT2 except through bad downshifts. Hope this helps.

Is there an easy way for us to do a DME readout without having to go to a tech who has equipment? For example, can I use one of the Bluetooth ODBII readers that are generally used for track telemetry? Or something similar...?

^ buy a durametric kit.

my 4.0 and 3.8 has zero over rev in any range.
range 4 is a missed downshift.
that said, it may not necessariliy be an issue.

The engine has since been apart (diluted oil, bearing failure new crank etc) and there was no ill effects from these apparent over revs....

GT2s all seem to do that over rev "dance" when you change gear enthusiastically like in the vid below, I don't know if the engine is recording over revs here or its just the needle doing its thing ?

i stand corrected as well. on GT3 4 and above is 99% missed shift. i know b/c i do bounce off my limiters. often on purpsoe. i love that feeling.

but is this something different with respect to the lower rev range on GT2?

that said, it appears that range 4 on GT2 is not too bad based on our two well respected GT2 members above?

love to learn more.
