hmcsat Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hope to kick off stage 1 tomorrow evening, all things going well. Average Lap - 7.25 seconds Stage 1 - 18 laps clockwise (current standings last - first) Stage 2 - 18 laps anti clockwise (Stage 1 standings last - first) Stage 3 - 18 laps clockwise (Stage 2 standings first - last) Stage 4 - 18 laps anti clockwise (Stage 3 standings first - last) All up each car should run about 8 - 9 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sports Racer Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 I like the look of that track, it's not a goat track like Gazza's. MJK friendly? Cheers Paul Quote May the downforce be with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmcsat Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Stage one is done. I think we are in for a fight to the end if this is anything to go by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaak Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 (edited) Me very happy A 15 sec lead on #2 is much more then i could wish for. i actually looked at the standings while loading starting from the middle to down when nearly reaching the end of the results i thought omg another catastrophic result. Then i thought OK they forgot my name.. until i looked at the top.. what a great surprise And it also shows the diversity of the track and the way cars should be setup for it.. This will indeed be very interesting, it nearly looks like a reverse order of previous races.

Davnic74 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Oh well, reasonably good lap time must have been a 1 off.. Quote Regard's David Team Phoenix 4 x Australian National Champion.

Ronan Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Oh well! I thought round 1 was beginners luck and I guess I was right! LOL! Hopefully it will do better on the next track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmcsat Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I will be attempting to run Stage 2 tonight all things family wise going well. The track is totally different in reverse and some cars that did not perform well in the clockwise direction may shine going the other way. I suspect we will see laps times continue to fall as the round goes on. Got to hand it to Jakk, his car is perfectly setup for this track. I wouldn't be surprised to see Phil's car near the top of stage two as it seems to love the reverse direction. All is shaping up to be a hard fought contest until the end. The performance level of this year's cars far outways that of last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick1776 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I hate to be the bearer of bad news but something doesnt add up with Jaak's first stage. Im sure its just a simple typo. If his best lap was 7.86 and you did 18 laps, even if you managed to do his best lap every lap that adds up to 2 min 21.48 sec. Did you mean to enter 6.86? Even that adds up to 2 min 3.48 sec. :clap: Quote cheers rick1776 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaak Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Well it seems i am still doing well. I hope the next round is again the other way around. I am looking forward t the next results.

Nice pickup Rick. I was actually a little blown away by the time as it was so far in front of the others. It may have been a glitch with the timer. I will confirm with the head marshall (Phoeno) and perhaps run this car's stage 1 again. Being clearly a mistake in timing this may be acceptable. I do want the other teams protests flowing in either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick1776 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 You need to install my bullet proof timing system. In built multiple trigger rejection. RFI noise rejection. Will work under any ambient lighting conditions. Quote cheers rick1776 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoeno29 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 hmcsat, as tracks change across a period of time and cars react to this, by getting faster or slower, I think the best way forward from the timing error in round 1 for Jaak is to run stage three as normal and we will compare the overall times of stage 1 with stage 3. Work out the average change across the field (this could be faster or slower) and then we will adjust Jaak's stage 3 time with the average to produce a stage 1 time. Any objections ????
