I still have the spreadsheet I used to use. I'm currently attempting to create a chart that would take our laptimes and actually show us the running order at any point during the race. Since the field is getti.g so tight we would be able to see position changes and more importantly lead changes and how pit stops create those changes. I'm having difficulty figuring it out though because I need the chart to break down our elapsed times by time increments instead of lap increments. I hope to be able to figure it out though. The biggest thing this would allow is a visual representation to cue a race write up from.I'm very hopefull here.

Unless Josh wants to again,I plan to do write-ups for the 2011 series. My brother said he would try to help me with figuring out some spreadsheets but I have no problems allowing Josh to take it back over.

 

[Lessen]

Randy, I say you take care of writing and ill take care of data. Cool?

 

[slowngreen]

I'll hold the beer and make fun of Rob. Sound good?

 

[Lessen]

Sounds GREAT! But you have to share... both.

 

[robmob]

As I expected, I moved up and you moved down.

I wish I had another run since 110 is what I expected for my 2nd run.

Pretty sure I would have been at 111 on a third run and given Randy a challenge, but it is what it is and I don't want to practice between runs.

I just have to make sure to charge the LiPo every week. Twice as many races means it needs to be charged more often.

At least I beat Floyd. :green-grin:

Now to decided whether I want to practice on Boss Speed or just go for it.

 

[Lessen]

Man this a tight field! I can't believe i worked so hard for 4th! That's pretty cool really:thumbup:.

So how bad are you guys sandbagging Boss Speed????? .

 

[robmob]

Your run looks solid on Boss Speed Josh.

The 15th race of the Championship was a 18 minute run on Boss Speed. I took it with a single run of 51 laps. Randy had a fast lap of 19.144.

 

[Lessen]

Dang, Randy is like MSC up in this place!

 

[robmob]

Msc?????

 

[slowngreen]

Miss Sheryl Crow. Duh Rob.

 

[Lessen]

*sigh*


moving on...

 

[Racer 1966]

Miss Sheryl Crow. Duh Rob.

I'm confused?


I don't think any of you have much to worry about this week. I hate racing Boss Speed. Well actually I like the track,my set up seems solid but my computer won't play this track right.

The sound and video are both slightly choppy and I can't seem to iron it out. I can still hit a few 19 sec laps but it's hard like this. Twice in practice last night I had problems,ran out of fuel - marshalled in and that was it. It wouldn't refuel me,I couldn't do anything. Rehit the space bar,it picked up the car ,set it down and nothing else. The second time I ran out as I coasted in,it fueled me up but the red dot kept flashing. I hit the space bar it put me back in the pits,refueled again and it still flashed. So I ran another full lap and then it ran out of fuel and had to marshall in again. Refueled and it was flashing again,ran another lap it told me it was a 128sec lap then went back to racing. :shrug:

Then there's the problem of unnecessary marshalling on a couple of areas even though the AI's can drive the line I like,I can't

 

[Lessen]

Randy, Where are you getting hit for marshalling? Just curious. I'm having no problems with that. Although I do recall from way back when that a couple corners near the end of the circuit are touchy.

Oh, and MSC is the letter designation for 7-time F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher. C'mon people get with the racing program here

Oh, that makes more cents for sure

 

[Lessen]

Oh, that makes more cents for sure

I wish. I'll take every dime I can get.

 

[Lessen]

Y'all gonna race or not??? Better get 54 cuz I'm pretty sure I can

 

[slowngreen]

Just try anyways Josh! Do it, do it.

 

[Lessen]

Only if I need to. Only if I need to.

 

[slowngreen]

I'm hoping you need to!
