So. I just want to try and correct some misinformation. Over the weekend I had a ton of people asking about the issues I was having with the car throughout this season. When I explained that it ended up being the GMLAN Serial Data Lines. Everyone was telling me that the TBG tune should’ve bypassed those. Now I have 2 TBG tuned ECMs and both of them were doing the exact same thing before I found out it was the Data Lines.
I have spoken with TBG and their tune cannot bypass the Data Lines. They said those have to communicate to each other.
I have reached out to a few companies that have stand alone wiring harnesses to see if it’s possible to get a harness that can bypass the data lines. Last thing I want is to get a harnesses just to find out it doesn’t work. Or to keep the car like it is and have a module go down and then the car acts up all over again.
Fingers crossed that there is a harness out there that can bypass the data lines.
If anyone has any suggestions for who may have a harness like that if you could comment what company below so I can send them a message!

Here is the A Main Feature.
To recap this weekend I wanted to get seat time in the new car. I did request to start in the back all weekend long due to the amount of Sport Compacts that were showing up. I know some of us can get pretty crazy out there so to do my best to avoid that and make sure I have a car from next season!
I managed to find things wrong and get them corrected from Friday nights Heat Races.
Saturday afternoon before I headed for the track I swapped out some wheels and tires just to try a different set up.
Overall just being able to take it out and cruise it around the track without pushing it too hard I don’t think it did too bad. I did get a cooling mode active message with like 2 or 3 to go and I started loosing pressure in my brake pedal. If you watch the video with 1 to go all the way up until I begin to exit you can see sparks flying into the car from the brakes lol. Other than that the car made it home in 1 piece and I had fun!

I know this season was not how I wanted it to go. And I almost threw in the towel a few times. But thanks to everyone for helping with repairs, advice, and encouragement I eventually was able to get this car out on the track to race! If I miss anyone I do apologize. Taylor Fuller Rainey Mayeux Gage Fuller Jeremy Hernandez Blake Andrus Leslie Chouinard and I know there’s more but this could go on for awhile lol.

I also want to thank my sponsors! Without yalls support I definitely wouldn’t have been able to make it back to the track this season!!!

And to save the best for last. Thank you to my wife and kids. I spent so much time away from them this summer because I was too busy working on the car. Although this car kept me frustrated and wanting to push it off a cliff. My kids telling me they want to see me race again over and over. That was enough to keep me out almost every afternoon to make sure I get this thing to run. This past Saturday night was the first time my kids got to see me race in months. And my youngest seemed to be more excited than anything. Before I left the house on Saturday he told me “Dad you go out there and win. And if someone passes you 2nd place is ok. And if someone passes you again last place is ok too as long as you do your best and have fun” thank you to my wife and kids who are my biggest fans!

Now to get the car prepared for storage and offseason events!

Well Heat 4 wrapped up. I didn’t finish where I would’ve liked but the car is running a night and day difference. Felt a whole lot better. I ended up backing way off due to another car getting into a rut sending her all over the track. Hopefully tomorrow I have a better night now the car is running like it should!

Heat race did not go well. I felt like the car had no acceleration. It wanted to move on the straights but I was flooring it in the turns and felt like I was going nowhere. I’m going to mess with a few things and hopefully that solves my problem

For Heat 2 I’ll be starting 6th
