As for CD they will have a section of the map from part throttle to no throttle that would use CD and anything beyond that throttle position would be normal driving characteristics.Matthew Somerfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13759263537936706584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239944414177437471.post-28681879922123912222012-07-18T10:41:44.936+01:002012-07-18T10:41:44.936+01:00Must check out types of VVT, I think.Must check out types of VVT, I think.David Frasernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239944414177437471.post-23527610357429423272012-07-18T10:32:19.978+01:002012-07-18T10:32:19.978+01:00Good #TechF1 insight.

Do not know how he does it!<br />I had a little think but nothing happened, so please help me:<br />1. Regarding 2012 mapping regs, what has is the significance of controlling the clutch position / usage?<br />2. I can see how CD works on a road car like the Audi A1 Sportback, but on a highly stressed F1 engine?David Frasernoreply@blogger.com
