Some nice stuff coming from Slot.it this year, but the final sentence in their note on SCI gives me pause: “It is worth noting that starting in 2012, all GT cars will come with AW as standard, with FLAT6 open can motor. This is a major change which we believe further raises the performance of our box stock cars.” We’re gonna have to figure out how to make these this setup work on our track. |
Interesting …
I have been trying to figure that out myself, I think weight would definitely help.
Since we know that our Group-C cars perform well, I wil use it as basis:
- car weight: 70 grams
- orange enbell torque: 170 grams
— 70 grams is 41.17% of 170 grams on the motor
Now, the Flat-6R has 220 grams of torque. I’m thinking that if we match the weight of the car to ~40% of Flat-6R torque (220 grams), the car should perform: car should weight ~90 grams in order to use the Flat-6R.
I will try that setup in one of my McLarens and report back.
