Fun-Andy and his Miata Menagerie

Howdy!

I'm Andy - I like race cars and software development. I've been interested in embedded development since I started into software. Professionally I work in mobile cross platform frameworks (C++/Kotlin/etc) among other things. I'm big into TDD and refactoring.

I have a handful of race cars: a k24 '85 Supra, an LS miata swap (in progress), a VVT swapped NA6, a V1 CTS-V, and a pair of spec miata.

I'm looking at building, compiling and contributing to the rusefi as a learning process. Progress is probably going to be a bit on the slow side since I have so much going on at any one time, but I figured I'd kick this party off.

Initial goals are getting a proteus (that I compiled)+harness (that I built) for my LS swap miata (it's currently using a termX, which I hate). I've started digging through the layered code and have unit tests running on mac as well as firmware cross compiled. I'll probably try to keep notes as well as slow LS miata progress. Assuming it goes well, I'd be interested in moving the other cars to Rusefi as well, both the K-supra and the VVT miata are on MSPNP products.

Hey Andy welcome rusEFI :) I hope that this codebase would be a useful fun.

The latter we desperately need, most of the recent board say it right there :)

watch out for https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/5225 :( we have some cool code generation but it's not properly integrated into the Makefile

Hey! I'm located in TN at the present.

Thanks for the heads up on the issue - I'm still just digging around and getting my feet under me in the project structure.
