I am seeing that it is very hard to make everyone happy. I think we will leave it for now. 

I will have MV tune up soon.

Very true statement...lol.   Hope you don't feel I'm unhappy.  I have a great time everytime I race.  I was just offering up what I've experienced.

From what I have read Kraigger I think everyone is fairly happy with what is happening so far. You will never get it perfect!! A couple tweaks here and there are expected but for now I think it is going well.

Kraigger, I think you're doing a fine job. I'm happy with the series and you can count me in on any future series.

FR sent, and as for times I have two tunes I have been running laps with and right now I can run :46 flat and on a really good lap I run high :45's. These times are in the veteran car. I setup a race to practice in, so I know what the car is going to act like in veteran trim.

Kraigger75 - Maple Valley tune definitely feels like it is on rails.  For us neophyte tuners, could you give us a couple of hints on what areas you adjusted between the Iberian tune and the Maple Valley one.

 

See you all on Tuesday.

Hi Ski!

I worked on the dif, anti roll bars, and gearing. I know it doesn't sound like much but that is because I have done all the hard work with getting the car balanced front to back. If you want more info hit me up sometime and I can go into more detail if you like.

Church...Say it isn't so...I look at it this way (Honest Opinion)...If running as fast as I can it would probably have taken me 50 laps to catch up with Armor if no one makes a mistake...  If I move up 5% (Deduct) then Armor has to move up 5%. You stay the same maybe...Fitzy and Probably Kraigger moves down one then let the race begin. If I do as well as this week then I should move up another 5%. You killed me on the corners..I moved up on the straights. Now you got to think is there enough corners and straights to even things out. Maple Valley Short I would say no! Also like Fitzy said last week....He was cold in practice. As soon as the race started he warmed up with better times. Just remember even up you and Armor are kicking ass.coolcool

P.S. I apologize for the bumps.

P.S.S. Great Race Church..Great Race Armor...Felt good to get out of the bottom of the barrel of last week.laughlaughlaugh

P.S.S.S. Felt great running up front with no one to pass...Hate it in the back..No Chance but still fun!!cool

Alright boys and girls I hope you are ready for later. I run a tight ship so it will be a no nonsense affair with strict rules that must be obeyed or there will be harsh penalties applied. Are we clear drivers, I SAID ARE WE CLEAR. Good now lets have some fun.

Church..When all is said and done with the handicaps..You got no worries when it comes to me. I just think it is fair to tweak the handicaps and everyone should look at Armor and Myself as examples. I'm sure he was running Veteran and I was running Pro Amateur. If the both of us were running neck and neck then if one of us should move up a percentage then the other has to move up to keep it fair. We seen that problem weeks ago. After Armor and I ran neck and neck the next week I went from Amateur to Veteran but he stayed the same I believe. Guess where I ended up..LAST!... Example for handicaps...I move up 5-10% then Armor (You too Church?) should move up the same amount. It may take a few more weeks to get it right but I know we can. Winning to me is Great but keeping it fair and fun is the Ultimate..coolcoolcool

I agree with the conversation here, but here is my thoughts. Each track will be different, some people will run fast on some but not on others and the handicap should be done at each race. Now with MV, look at the lap times. Wheels was .4xx a second faster for a fast lap and the last 5 laps he was catching me at a very quick rate. I found on that MV it was about .5 of a second per handicap level so ultimately Wheels should have been at Pro level to run the same lap times as Church and I. It will never be perfect! but it is great fun when it is that close. With Laguna it may be a whole different story for handicaps....... I may need one, hahaha 42

P.S. Wheels, you are faster than you think you are 1. You run consistant laps which accounts for running a successful race.

Armor..I put myself in the Pro Category at the 9:00 race.....In the priliminary races I ran from the front in all races except for the last race which I started from the back. Before I knew it I was settling in eighth or ninth and couldn't budge on catching up!!!...LOLlaughlaugh. ..So much for that theory for being faster than I think.

 

P.S. Still was a lot of Fun!!laughlaughlaugh
