@Yeahthatperson we are coned.
Alright some final quick testing before the big weekend. Unfortunately my adapters are in limbo and not moving (USPS smh). So, I had to get a bit hacky but motors are in and cured.
It’s wet out so can’t do any T racing annnnnnnd it’s late, shit happened. Sorry @sugandese (side note should I be reading this handle change as suck on deez nutz? ).
Went out and did some launches in the new motors and boy oh boy is it a big improvement. Easily broke my records without even trying hard. Here are some new numbers:
Was able to beat @poastoast 0-20 on my board so, can only imagine what he can do on it lol. It was a quick test in unideal roads so, I can probably squeeze out maybe another second.
See y’all at the big race!
Haha yeah that’s where I was going with that. Nice times man, is that with the bigger motors in the back?
Yeah with the bigger motors in back. Guess I really did need more power to push all my weight around.
Was able to break 1:20 barrier today and took home 4th overall (couple folks couldn’t race). Held 3rd for a short time lol, @Ruxx went down but was back up quick and regained the position a few turns before checker.
It was @ShutterShock, @tuckjohn, and I battling it out in the bottom 3. @tuckjohn was on my ass for most of the race and passed me at one point on the straight, but I was able to pull back ahead.
BRPs seemed to be a huge advantage on this track. I was definitely breaking traction and sliding a few times on the RS tires, but able to maintain and pull through .
Nice work man, having a quick scroll of avs events it looks like those times would have got you the win not so long ago.
Everyone is getting faster dude it’s crazy. 2nd place was a diy though so that’s super cool.
2nd place was a diy Bro with 7490 motors running spintend ESCs pretty sure…it is amazing how far vesc things have come.
@Zachsnotboard Jack is relatively new to the scene, but is a part of ARD team. Will probably start to see him more.
@JeffyJ above was my Racebox data, but from the race video you can clearly see I was not the fastest (45 mph is a new high for me ). I think top 3 were easily hitting 47-50 mph, but I don’t think we have their data. They’re thinking of using race boxes for everyone next year though.
Yeah sweet. I was hoping to see something like this above. Just to see racing lines and speeds (above is kph).
It looked like a very fast track!! They are some butt puckering speeds! Definitely would need to gear my board faster to do something that size! Mine maxes out at 42mph currently.
Oh yeah race chrono is it? Was talking to @fessyfoo about it, I gotta buy it first then do this. I’ll get back to you with one.
Yeah man it was awesome to have 4/7 boards in the top 7 people being DIYs
Tucker’s is technically a stooge but like… No one has one like him, and it’s still vesc
Such an awesome time! Going to make a post in my board thread soon too, but I hit a new top speed of 46, and I think my best lap time was still like 1:22:28, I think I can easily get those two seconds back just by changing to brps.
My linnpower were basically drag slicks by the end haha
Oh hell yeah. That’s what I wanted. So good! Thanks.
Can you open racebox data in racechrono after the fact? Or does it need to log through them both together?
You can import data from racebox retrospectively yes. It’s awesome. You can change position of splits on the track too and it adjusts the data.
Thats pretty sweet. I do like that racechrono screen, definitely good for getting an idea of what the track is like
