Something simple like 2 folders

People could add as much meta data as they wanted or just dump photos and video’s? The crashes!! The passes!! wont somebody think of our grimacing and screaming needs?l back in our respective homes?! Those of us that are cant travel or arent allowed in the country… cough… have needs

Be happy to take it on and maybe edit something together. I’ve never done it before, so it’ll likely be shit but hay! Happy to have a go

If someone has got the storage it would be awesome!

Even a free google account has 15g storage. If it needs more id be happy to give them the $10 or whatever it is if it gets big. I’ll look into it later.

that sounds like a great idea. storage would probably be expensive tho

slightly unrelated topic


@Swol_Moon can add to original post

Yeah 15g is like 4 4k vids haha but it is a great idea for photos at least

Theres a 2TB plan i can get

Itd be ok to pull the data off to make clips with and for everyone to keep up with just not permanent hosting

If I can pull off what i’m thinking, yes. I dont have all that much storage, so we’ll see if this is a mistake lmao

If this falls through, let me know. I have access to basically unlimited object file storage with more available bandwidth than anyone could possibly saturate, but would have to toss some frontend onto it so people could access it. Not hard, but it’d take a couple hours to deploy and configure.

My planned solution was pretty janky. I just wanted to setup a Zipline instance and give out the credentials to anyone who wanted to store things

But they pass the dutchie on the left hand side…

Has anyone were able to test the track in similar size? Any recommendations for the max speed? Thinking between 31 vs 34mph

On the drawing the straights looked quite short so not sure if 34 is necessary.

We’ve hit up to 40 on the chicane straight. I wager that will be pretty much max IF you are good at racing, have grippy tires, and excellent brakes lol (which you are)

Personally, the best I’ve been able to do is 33, 40 was my friend. 34 is likely a safe bet but I think morgan, jack, mario may push a bit past that - I’m geared for 40 something but I’m brute forcing acceleration with amps and gear ratio

Can’t wait to get to try the whole layout. We’ve only done the top right section of the layout a few times.

Never could find a parking lot big enough to set it up.

Tis the way

Hmmm I’ll only be geared for 28 with the smaller tires I just put on, hopefully it doesn’t affect my times too much.

Might be tough to make it into pro but trust me you’ll be focusing on not crashing into the hairpins first haha

The rest of the track is slower for sure

We have to keep in mind the sheer amount of racers - 150 people is a TON. (my point being is there’s a place for everyone in terms of pacing, and there will definitely be people slower than most of us DIY people)
