Nice times at Sweden - thanks @Onehp for amazing roads!

First time aquaplaning with ESC off - not nice.

Got lambda 1 stuck rich issue - need to follow up if it reoccurs. Occurred driving constant 60km/h.
For removing 1st lambda sensor you need offset lambda socket. Part appears to be rather pricey, 2-300€.
Suggestion for good parts source in EU are welcome.

Issue hasn't recurred since so maybe it was just a flick. But, ordering new Lambda just in case, it shouldn't be too big job to swap.
Its not the cheapest part but got a reasonable offer from reputable shop.

Adding some aero bits and swapping oils to GR. Oil looked rather diluted after two track days and dyno session so it was good time to change.

First time at Secto rally Ruuhimäki shakedown - lots of cars to see and hear - can recommend!

Even though long drive and bit sketchy with semis on drying roads yesterday evening, it was fun to be around with GR there - car gets nice attention, and Full send sticker gave few laughs for the ppl. Wish there would be more rally fans in the world, they’re just awesome people to spend time with!

Feel sad for Lappi as he had the pace and feeling to push into top positions - luck is not with everyone it seems.

Our first spectating spot was shared with Mr Rovanperä - seemed to be ok then!

nice memories from summer 26 - two rally souls sharing a moment on nice twisty road

Changed the 1st lambda today as it was throwing seldom Stuck Rich error (every 3rd or 4th wk or so).
Not that bad job from above.
- remove wipers
- remove assy that holds wiper mech (2 clips + many 10mm bolts)
- remove couple of charge pipes so that you can access lambda from above
- special offset lambda tool needed for lambda removal
- remove lambda wire from socket, its held with push clip (push together, push the clip and pull, you can find the logic once you find the correct side to push).
- make sure that lamda wire is connected back to the wire guide.
- lambda mount torq 35-45Nm.

wiper motor package is quite heavy and comes off easily in 5-10min. For serious racing stuff good place to get rid of weight!

We went to see Japanese cars with GR to nearby car museum and must say GR is now quite brisk in cool autumn air and new Lambda. Really nice engine to drive twisties..
