Speaking of using all BRM parts. Have you seen the new BRM controller? 😯

Wasn’t that vaporware from 2007? Has it been resurrected?
Bellator
KeymasterNo worries here… (so far) Occasionally the wife makes me go to Houston, but no mention of that this year.

Speaking to your issue with the BRM rules and the fact that only BRM parts can be used – I was reading the forums last night to see if there were any updated 2011 BRM rules and came accross something that Alan wrote about using the motor shim in the older Porsche chassis. He said that once you install the motor shim you cannot tighten the motor holder down all the way as it will flex the chassis and possibly break it. The approved solution is to use BRM front axle spacers between the motor holder and the chassis. Only BRM axle spacers will be allowed. Don’t even think of using some off the shelf washer for this application. Anyone need the part number for BRM’s brass axle spacers? S-001W.
Marty
I guess I’ll be ordering something resembling that part number. Thank goodness BRM doesn’t make lube, or controllers, or air… 😈

KeymasterIs this something of a strategic decision?

I don’t understand the question… everyone who has raced four or more races has a line plotted for the total number of laps in round. It’s just a png file… you’re seeing something different?

KeymasterThought you guys might find this interesting.

KeymasterWow Ary! Great write-up! The cars look great and I can’t wait to “pilot” one this Thursday. 😀
Bellator
KeymasterI’m seriously considering this, but I have to balance it with a couple of other trips I plan to make this year. So… I can’t quite answer yet.
Bellator
KeymasterThose are looking good Ary!
I’ll second the encouragement for everyone to vote in the poll. 3 votes doesn’t quite cut it in the statistical realm folks. Click away!!!

KeymasterWho broke what last night running at 12v? 😉

KeymasterLove it!! Especially enjoyed the change in engine sound between the various generations of cars.

KeymasterBased on our discussion this past Thursday (2/24) we will plan to hold the BRM Series as the ONLY race on the weekends between our regularly scheduled 1/32 series. This is tentatively planned to start in April.
As of this writing, there are four participants that I am aware of. Me, Marty, Shawn, and Ary(?). Is anyone else interested in running the “big dogs” in the series?
Bellator
KeymasterSorry… yeah, I’m interested. But lets figure out a schedule and how to integrate it with the BRM class. (That series completely slipped my mind Saturday.)
Which cars were you thinking of using?
Bellator
KeymasterI’m in… I have a LOT of work to do on my car, but hey…that’s half the fun! 😀
Bellator
KeymasterHey guys,
We need a volunteer for clerk of the course for Saturday’s race.B
