the guy who i got it from seems to a really nice guy, he races a class8 truck too.
i have been talking to a guy back east about this type of computer and from what he said, it'll work perfect for what i want use it for.he is going to be helping me get it installed over the phone and how to calibrate it and stuff
should be a snap,and will be fun to use. its hard to read the gps with all the crap on the screen and it will make my passenger alot more comfortable writing course notes knowing the exact milage down to the tenths. my goal is to have course book that will be easily read and accurate for racers to use.

Yeah the seller was pretty cool. He was working on the class 8 the night I was there.

The Rally logger will be perfect for what you want. Now get it in there!

just added 5 more degrees of cool.... :lol: it is all one color and i did some work to my dash as well....interior is coming around since painting dash and upholstering the dash top
it actually feels more comfortable inside,soft and more relaxing with out the blast of raw aluminum and sharpie drawings all over the place....
i have a couple panels i need to finish on the console and then the dash will be 100% done.then its on to head liner and sound deadening the rest.....i might as well keep on tinkering with it while its for sale,that way when someone actually does call i can tell them well......its not for sale !! :lol:

I wonder if the heat on the roof will ever get hot enough to pop the bubbles? If so it will probably scare the crap out of you as one goes off...
