If anyone was using Racebox during the race and would be willing to share the data so that we can check and learn someting, I have created this online folder.
I shared mine exports (quali, heat1, heat2, finals) in the .rcz format for Racechrono app. If you have just Racebox data you can export only that and I will try to convert.
Also shared the Esk8Con track for the Racechrono including my splits. I was using this extensively during the practice to figure out my current pace. Usually you are meeting traffic so you will not get any usable lap time, but you are able to go fast sector from time to time. In the Racechrono you can see the optimal lap consisting of the best sectors so you are able to figure out your potential lap time.
So was the track crazy slick compared to last year ? Curious how there were so DKP and stock boards beating so many stooge boards. Obv rider skill always helps but BRP wheels usually have a crazy advantage in grip.
It was most definitely a drift track. Morgan was saying he would no doubt hit low 40s in lap time if it hadn’t been for the surface, since that’s what he was hitting in practice.
Yeah, I arrived with LandSurf V2 which on a normal heated track is also like going on rails, but here I was just constantly loosing rear and had to tiptoe on the edge to make it work and not spin out. Definitiely suprised about that one. I have heard they painted the surface during last year so it was not really a real asphalt.
Did some quick comparison for poasttoast data with my best freeride lap (very close to optimal for me) around the same time (so the track should be somehow similar )
There are two videos - relative comparison (where you can see the actual changing position on the track) and absolute comparison (where you can see the difference in throttle curve for the specific track position)
Also screenshot of the track with split positions and the optimal lap (which in this case is also very close to the best lap) with times for each sectors, compared to my best lap sector times.
Also for the posttoast data there is a video of the one sector where the optimal time could be better with relative comparison of that single sector where you can see what was faster.
You can see that the time loss of the acceleration on the back main straight was around 0,2s for me vs poasttoast (check top right corner where the current lap time diff is showing).
On the top right you can see the color of each lap (mine is more prominent and the comparison poasttoaast lap is the greyed out one)
