There's currently no output for that function. You can just get any AIM-compatible gauge (like the VEMS round) and display the value.

or you can mount extra narowband and use it only for that purpose
If you have everything under control, you\\\'re not fast enough!

A narrow band will give no useable information, only that its too rich or too lean.

that was what we were after Rob,
a visual aid while racing regarding the colour bands etc,

The warning light function can be used to alert you if you're running leaner than x.xx lambda, that's more then enough information to look at while racing.
