Hopefully will have time for this one later in the week :nervous: Looks great!

Seems like a lot of Grand valley speedway lately, but I do enjoy the full track better than the smaller one.

I can't seem to find the race thread STWS that had this car, was something weird about the gearing, needed higher top speed or something and a few of the top speed settings had this car performing awful.
 
290 gearing

T1. 0'36.146
T2. 1'09.557
probably 1 second more

Only went down to 2nd gear right before T1, 3rd gear seems to have a lot more power.

We ran it in week 112 of WRS, my first WRS race. :D

I think the key called out that week was short shifting it. Top speed will not be the same at GV, since that race was on Autumn Ring, which would have a shorter main straight.

Should be fun. Looking forward to running this one with Kenny, Jake, Chuck and George over the weekend. 👍
 
I was referring to a race on gtrp in 2005 on midfield raceway which had a similar top speed as GV so it should be about the same settings that we ran.
 
Love this car, but I feel super slow! :dopey: Gave it a few laps to start. 👍

36.691 / 1'10.789
36.396 / 1'10.486
36.279 / 1'10.360

First quick session led to:

T1: 36.664
T2: 1'10.741

Did see a 36.3xx, but messed up the area around the S's and lost all that time and more.
 
Board init

Welcome to Jimmy. Did you qualify already? I can't find your division anywhere 👍 tho my guess'd be that you're Div1 material seeing your splits :)
 
My first splits:

T1: 36.443
T2: 1.11.098

Had a nice vacation Bigracer?
You're Luxied Andy. EDIT updated up to post 24.
And thanks for asking, yes the hollies were very good. We sold the house in France so now we can plan for other kinds of trips with the family which feels quite nice.

Sorry for not beeing around too often in WRS of late. I can blame PD for that ... :sly:

Hello everyone :) !!
First splits:

T1: 35.899
T2: 1'08.857

Don't really know if I will improve much after that, I see 0.150 in the first sector and in the last one. But I don't see anything between T1 and T2 :guilty: .
I used 330 gearing but I might switch for 310 or 320.
I also shift up at 6000 rpm, never more.

Damn it !:crazy: And I thought I was improving ( still losing a lot of time between T1 and t2):nervous:
T1 36 .302
T2 1' 10.382
But Im going to copy your set up:dopey:
 
T1. 36.046
T2. 1'09.108

Got .6 more but can't see any more out of 290 gearing, tried 300 but it wasn't good.

I hope it's going to work for you just like it worked for me ;) !!
 
T1 36.618
T2 1.11.078

but im still all over the track so i know there's another second in there for me if I handle the car not the other way around, in the sweeping curves

gearing 340, though i wanted to bring it down to 330 or 320 but my time ran out tonite

im short shifting some 500 rpms before the redline, its a pain to do it by ear but i think it helps a lot
