I am going to agree with the Foams but I see practice before the series potentially hurting the Lola series but it is really an unknown perimeter.
McLaren update 2/26 the inline pod is not intended for use in the McLaren I am going to reinstall the Anglewinder this week
So the testing stopped pretty quick. The inline post does not fit. I had originally thought the interior was hitting the shaft of the motor but after grinding the shaft off the motor is still hitting the interior. I do not want to grind on it before I get a ruling on it. I will be at the track tomorrow with the car if anyone wants to look at it.
On a side note if the McLaren requires an anglewinder this is will be a F40 spec series
I will have that ready for you next race but in the meanwhile just let David hold on to those do we have one for group A and B or just over all
Also from what I can tell the Revo-slot car looks RTRace 4 metal wheels and all. We can just say box stock plus tires it looks pretty cheap. I like the chassis it looks interesting!!
the issue I have with limiting it to motors is that we had an slotit orange endbell holding the record of fastest lap with a 3.712 for quite some time. I am now thinking the GT car could be limited to 4 second lap time minimum anything below it does not count it could be an interesting challenge.
OK so what I propose is a modern le mans style race. The way I envisioned it was it being both the 3rd and 4th quarter. Race 1 would be group A runs prototypes and group B runs GT cars then the second race is the opposite and we go back and forth for a total of 12 races 6 in each category. I would love to see some limit on the GT cars in hopes of actually making them a little slower then the proto-types. So maybe GT limit to 20k motor and le mans is open (.?) Idk let me know what you all think
I recommend a revision of the rules in this series that allow for the individual racers to adjust the voltage for their own stint. This series spotlights how fast a racer can drive his car around the track, why not let the racer tune the track to the car’s utmost ability?
Not to mention that different brands are designed to run at various voltages. While NSR runs fast at 12 volts; brands like SCX and Ninco are designed to run at a higher voltages (14-18 volts).
What are your thoughts?
