WTF ?

Sounds to me like they can do a partial re-boot of bits of the ECU whilst the car is racing ?

Hmmmm ...

See also short write-up is Nissan MotorSport (aka Kelly Racing) move towards the front of the grid with a top-5 finish for Moffat in Race 2. The sleeved down VK56 is still down on mid-range torque (NISMO from Japan have spent 3 days here this week looking for tweaks to improve mid-range torque) and a tad off in top end (Nissan's are consistently 4-5 kph down on top-speed in Adelaide and Albert Park), but they are showing impressive lap-speed on the softer of the 2 compounds available at selected circuits.

Next V8SuperCar round in Tasmania in a week.
Saw the report on Mark's ECU. Mclaren have been apologizing. Not a nice way start your race eh? Hopefully he will make up for it this weekend in Sepang.

The V8 series you have there looks amazing. I hope to catch a race or 2 at some point.

Enjoy the race this weekend mate!!
