i assume he means you might need to have it mounted so the magnet passes the end of the sensor and not the length of it

ahh, tis what Stuart also said - but when I was testing it, the sensor didn't "tick" when i stroked the end with the magnet, only when the magnet passed the two lines either side of the word "SENSOR" on the sensor itself, as it wouldn't count the revolutions...

The only other thing I can think of, is that I need to mount the sensor horizontally, as opposed to vertically, which is no biggie... I'll test it properly on the way down to Combe this morning :)

That's what I was saying :thumb: Perpendicular = ''At right angles to''
It'll probably need to be horizontal and having the pickup passing between the lines on the sensor :)

Cheers Ol - I'll try it horizontally and go from there.

So, we travelled down to Chippenham to the Eurofest Action Day at Castle Combe, thoroughly enjoyed myself, was a great fun day out!

As always, here are a couple of photos that were taken of me whilst on track.

First three - thanks to Chris Harrison Photography (http://www.chrisharrison.smugmug.com/)

Looks mega out on the track - Has the bottom of the passenger rear arch had a repair ?

Certainly has :thumb: a poor one at that was done by the old boy who had the car before me

1st time I've ever noticed it lol

I'd love to be passenger in this round a track sometime :)

You cant beat that bonnet bra fella lol.
