Yeah Iām going to have to find a driver lord knows I am not taking any trophyās I do have 2 race tickets! One for myself and another for whoever wants to race!!! You coming?
Hopefully, I was just looking at how much flights and a hotel would cost earlier today and itās not as bad as I thought so I think Iāll be able to make it. Iām looking forward to it, it will be my first time riding with other people or racing.
Letās chat next time you stop by
Even now, 4wd vesc still canāt beat stooge
maybe Artās new setup will have the ability but Iām not convinced yet
So you going to represent!?
I think there are a couple of reasons for this, first, the best riders out there all ride the V5, its a great board but it also means everyone at the highest level has practiced on 2wd and it will take a lot of time and relearning to reach the same level of mastery on a 4wd board because just like with the transition from RWD to Quattro in IMSA as I mentioned before, Audi couldnāt put anyone in that car and be faster, they needed the drivers that had trained on quattro for years so they brought over rally drivers from Europe, but once they stuck them in the car it was clear they were untouchable. But once they reach that level where they are extracting every ounce of performance out of the board, I believe they will be faster.
Other stuff like the 3 links, wheels and tires are things that the SRB does great, the lipo pouches have their advantages too. This doesnāt mean that Stooge boards are automatically irrelevant in fact they have the best starting place out of anyone, all I said was ā4 wheels in a race trim boardā I donāt care who builds it but it its done right, I think it will be super powerful. VESCs have come pretty far, I donāt think that the current stooge approach of giant motors and a bazillion amps is completely necessary for 4wd, 4wd cars have always been down on power compared to 2wd but they make up for it in traction. You can use smaller motors on all corners and as long as your rider doesnāt weigh a ton you will be fine, I have gotten the new SKP controller up to over 100a/side and at that point, you are limited by tires not controller.
Represent what?
Race it at Esk8con
Yeah all I was saying is that except for this build, 4wd has not been able to beat stooge in terms of power and speed yet
Heath got close but not quite
as long as your rider doesnāt weigh a ton you will be fine
oops
I donāt know, I was just riding this board around to see how it performed.
Work bench is a lot smaller than iām used to, but it does the job
Race it at Esk8con
I so wish i could take my board ,but there is no way i can pull that off,the trip to Iceland is going to kill me as it is. I wish i knew where there was a race tack i can try.
There is a race in early march in SF too Iāll get you more info
OH! YOU DONT SAY!! HMMM , its time to get my ass spanked on a racecorse!!
The intro to speed in SF?
Thatās the one
its odd that i ordered a bakers dozen Zmotes in trigger style?
so thatās why I canāt order any
The black hole of depression i fell [into] for the 2 days i thought i was stuck with a thumb remote
this is THE WORST
