Time to start a clean thread for HP that is about racing at HP for those that race there. Please keep this discussion on topic.

:wave: I just wanted to be the 1st to post to the new thread.

Thank you! :thumbsup:

Still waiting for my new and improved handle to come back from PM.Tonight I begin the Jags rework for the weekends races.Should have to cooling tray ready also.See ya'll at the races soon.

Its the new year, and new rules and such will be posted at the shop later this week or early next. Hope to see everybody this friday and over the weekend.

Well when I got home my improved PM was waiting at the door.Worked on a few new ideas for the car and Car cooler.The later is done while there is some more work to be done with the car itself - tonight.

I've got a great idea on how to cool the handles Now if I can find the parts somewhere in the house- this would be great if it works for the enduro.Also its race night tonight and I've got my new and improved handle from PM ......See ya'll tonight.

Well Ididn'tget to race last friday night- brought everything to the track except the car.I realized that about two miles from the track. I did however pickup one of the new Jags (GT) and took it home to work on it. Got to the track yesterday evening(monday) and tried it out. Jason was there and showed me a different idea with the magnets and now the car is faster.It's still got some work but it's 95% done. See ya'll at the track.

It's Friday and race night! Almost ready.

Congrats to everyone at Hobby Planet. Enjoy the racing. See you guys soon.. -Marc

Just to let everybody know, we are in the planning stages of doing and enduro race. 4 hours will be the first.

Now here are some of the ideas we have had:
1. Everybody will qualify. (Now as for the car and so on this has TBD.)
Does everybody run thier car or does the shop supply the car? Please before any
Comments read this: The shop will supply the 4 or 5 cars for the teams racing. We
are looking at the types and availabilty of the cars now. But the cars must have
headlights and tail lights. So the shop is looking, ok?

2. The control for this race will what is provided by the shop. Meaning no DF or any
other. (case closed).

3 After all qualifing is done the top 4 qualifiers we be the team "captains". Now here
in lies a problem do we let the captains pick their next 2 drivers or does the shop
assign them? Meaning team 1 would get drivers 5 and 9? Your thoughts on this?

4 Car assignment after all qualifing is done, the team captain picks their car from a
blind draw. The reason being, the shop is providing the cars and such. After the
cars are chosen, the teams will then chose their spare motors from 2 more additional
blind draws? After all cars and motors are chosen, the team will have about 1 hour
to set up and practice with the cars of their chosing. Does this sound fair enough
everybody?

5 Only work to be done on the cars is during green flag racing, NO EXCEPTIONS. (if
there are 5 teams. Team number 5 or who ever is sitting out the car will be
impounded. NO EXCEPTIONS.

6 Drivers will race on each lane for 20 minutes during 4 hours. Should there be a
minimum or maximum time for the drivers? Do you let your best driver race most of
most of the race?

Any thoughts you have share them, I would like to make this a positive thing, ok?

Let me suggest the Scaley Aston Martin DBR9, Scaley 911 GT3R, Scaley Nissan Skyline… all of those would make good choices. The Aston Martin probably being the most durable of the group. If the shop’s supplying the cars, they should all be identical, so the shop might think of having Speedy take identical cars and paint them in different liveries.

2. The control for this race will what is provided by the shop. Meaning no DF or any other. (case closed).
This sounds great. It keeps everybody even.

3 After all qualifing is done the top 4 qualifiers we be the team "captains". Now here in lies a problem do we let the captains pick their next 2 drivers or does the shop assign them? Meaning team 1 would get drivers 5 and 9? Your thoughts on this?
Just make sure that each team has at least of the new drivers, so that the beginning drivers have a chance. You might trying placing the fastest with the slowest (except this might cause sandbagging), or you can base it on the average of the Friday night race results (which would probably be the better idea).

4 Car assignment after all qualifing is done, the team captain picks their car from a blind draw. The reason being, the shop is providing the cars and such. After the cars are chosen, the teams will then chose their spare motors from 2 more additional blind draws? After all cars and motors are chosen, the team will have about 1 hour to set up and practice with the cars of their chosing. Does this sound fair enough everybody?
The only thing I would change on this would be to give them a little more time, so that they can learn to work together. Possibly an hour and a half to two hours.

5 Only work to be done on the cars is during green flag racing, NO EXCEPTIONS. (if there are 5 teams. Team number 5 or who ever is sitting out the car will be impounded. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Perfect!

6 Drivers will race on each lane for 20 minutes during 4 hours. Should there be a minimum or maximum time for the drivers? Do you let your best driver race most of most of the race?
No driver should be allowed to race more than half, and all drivers should get at least 20 minutes on the track.

Any thoughts you have share them, I would like to make this a positive thing, ok?

Henry
Hopefully this race will get a good turnout, and bring in some of the drivers that haven’t been showing up.

Those look like the rules you were discussing with us a couple of months ago. Just a couple of quick notes to add in...

-If you go with the Scaley 911's, remember to make sure they're all the same chassis. Last I recall, the shop had both types of chassis in stock. I also remember a lot of people saw them as being an ideal car, though I like the Aston Martin more because it's less likely to break and a lot more forgiving, which makes it ideal for the wide range of experience levels.

-Ohmage for the rented controllers should probably be 25, like the Boggy Creek race.

-Will you also be supplying the equipment to work on the cars? Basically, oil, grease, com drops, etc.? Not sure if any particular brand gives an advantage or not.

-How will qualifying be handled? Will there be a qualifying car, or set of cars? If so, preferably it'd be at least two cars, similar to the race cars. I say at least two because the tires and motor could wind down with too much running straight, so having extras will allow people to use a relatively fresh car. There's still the chance someone will get the car when it's "hot", but that simulates an actual racer hitting the track while it's in ideal conditions and getting a boost.

-How will you determine how many teams to make? And then, how do you do the rotation? Each team should have equal track time - four hours. So do you keep rotating until every team has had twelve 20-minute runs on the track (three per lane)? In other words... is it a 4-hour event, or four hours *per team*?

I think it could be interesting to see how teams handle the race. Some races have preferred lanes. Joey had yellow lane. Wendell has orange lane. Marty's got blue lane. So, for example, if I were on a team with Wendell and Marty, I'd let Wendell do the orange lane runs, and Marty head out for the blue lane runs - specialist racers just like sports teams have specialists (road racer specialists, coverage linebackers, etc.).

Adding some missing pieces to the convo...

I was glad to see the positive feedback!

Personal, I dont think there is an advantage. We just want everybody to use what the shop is going to provide. We think by doing it this way it will bring the a level field concerning the controllers. BUT...
In a future enduro, we might allow them. But that might be in the future. On the other hand we might just stay with this format.

As for the cars, we are looking at maybe a SCX type of lemans or Scaley cars. I think the Porsche 911 had 2 different chassis pans. One with 2 screws and one with 4 screws.

We just want to try and control everything that takes place concerning cars, motors, and handles.

More or less like a full counter part! But like I said this is still in the early planning stages.

Any more ideas, from you or your Dad, please send them along.


The two Porsches were actually 2 and 3 screws, which is kind of annoying, as it meant older bodies (like the model kit and the Yankees Porsche) aren't able to be put on the newer chassis. Worse, you can't use the same setup... been there, tried that, nearly cried with the result.

I think it might be best to do a full control, really. It means no one can say there's an advantage, perceived or real.

Any more ideas, I'm sure we'll send them along, as always.

And...


My bad, I thought one had 4. oh well. I agree full control I think will work best for all involved.

But a question might be raised. Once the cars are drawn. They the teams are aloowed to set them up, who's to say that one team might go over that edge. One thing we do is INSTRUCT them as to what may or may not be done? See this might open up one can we dont want? Or do we allow them to do what they need to do on their cars?

Perhaps a limit on the amount of magnetic force, but otherwise open on magnets. Restricted tires, maybe tires provided by the shop, including some spares (though, as my dad noted to me last night, on a Scaley track it would be rare to need replacements during a four-hour run). This would be another area where experience and skill come into play.


After the enduro is over we retain the cars for the next one. That way they could possibily end up getting a different car next time around.

Are you saying after each 20-minute stint? So that a team might end up with another team's car? If so, then more guidelines on set up should probably exist, because some drivers race different than others. But you also mentioned giving teams an hour to set up and practice with a car, meaning they'll be used to that car, which could be a detriment if they find they're not using it for most of the race. *But* if you mean for the next event... that could be different. Just remind people that all work put into the cars goes back into the pool.


Keep the ideas coming. One thing we dont want to do is set up all the cars. Then that would be more like an IROC enduro, which might not be a bad idea either. Your thoughts?

The IROC enduro was always an interesting idea, but you probably want to see more experience in the pool of drivers. At the moment, I would think that - if all drivers were allowed to enter - this could be a run-away between JP, Jason, myself, and my dad. At the very least, it'd involve giving the other drivers a "handicap testing" period longer than the other racers. Maybe an hour for the more experienced racers, and about two hours for the other racers. "Experienced" being defined by weekly race results - something I've handily been keeping track of.


One the cars we want to use the LMP style cars, either from SCX or scaley. But it will most definately be one manufacturer not several. That way it can be controlled more easily. Right?

I can't find any LMP's on SCX's site. Scaley has some, they've got lights, could work and are supposed to be fast. So if you're set on LMPs, Scaley is good to go. Also, I prefer Scaley over SCX because of the better motors (any SCX LMPs you could find would have the RX-41), and they're easier to set up and can take more punishment. Remember, you'll be teaming up groups of drivers who have varying experience, and that's the main thing to remember. There's no way to keep out the less experienced racers.

Speaking of experience... I don't have my notebook with me (the PC that is), so I don't have the most up-to-date numbers. But I think the only racers with more than 20 races would be, in order of my estimate of numbers:

JP
Erik
Tom
Marty
Jason
Wendell
Richard
Jonathan
Henry
Kyle
Bob

There's probably some mixing of the order in there, but you get the idea. That's 11 drivers. Now, assume who might not be involved... okay, you're probably out as the director and technical advisor. Assuming we don't hear anything positive soon, my dad and I are also out. Leaving just eight drivers with significant experience. Doc's questionable, but heck, he won't be there for a car he can't set up (still remember the Porsche he replaced everything in after doing well with it in the BC race). Now, throw in some of the recent racers you've been getting in, because they'll want to be there. Let's assume 20 racers, a decent turnout. Now, you're looking at a likely eight experienced to 12 lacking experience, or even possible a 50/50 split. So any key decisions will have to take that into account, and go with equipment that isn't as easy to break, and is easier to control.


Oh, that also reminds me. Because I haven't been around, I haven't been able to witness the deaths of any more of them, but I remember at least four Parma econo-controllers having significant failures within a short time span, two of which were Marty's and one of which was JP's. So it'd be good to have at least two spares on hand.


On an odd tangent... I was typing this in Notepad hovering over IE, and I noticed the word "instruct" in big letters, and it got me to thinking... Ideally, you'd want four team leaders that can also help instruct the team members, giving them advice and such. The leaders would also be mentors, of a sort, to help the inexperienced members. Assuming four teams, you're looking at five drivers per team; or five teams with four drivers. Either way, it's 3/2 drivers per team that could use some pointers. So you want guys who can give those pointers and explain why things are the way they are. Someone who can point to the track, and say, "Okay, you want to gas it down the main straight, but ease into the first turn, and on any lane but yellow you're good hitting it through the s's. Then you come around full speed and you have to go on the brakes for the hairpin, but watch it on green and blue, it's especially tight there. The inside turn can be handled at pretty much full speed, only problem might be on blue or if you got a late start out of the hairpin and aren't up to speed fast enough. Then you slow down and scrub off speed for the loop, and depending on how your car is running you can zip through the loop either at full speed, or give it a quick off-and-on at the turn-back section and at the end of the loop. If the car's good enough, you can go through the loop full blast and right through the main straight, and repeat." And maybe some more detail beyond that.

Thought it'd be a lot easier to communicate on the topic itself, and allow other people to get involved.

It'd be nice to see some HP racers who post here - Marc (even if he isn't racing right now - heck, I'm not!), Bob and Kyle, and even Debby and, through her account or maybe another, Marty - add in their own opinions. And even outside opinions are welcome, I'm sure.

After Erik's couple of books he wrote, I'll try to keep my post short. I'll just say this: We are both glad to give any help we can with the race, including I would be happy to help coach the new drivers to prepare them to race in a long race. I'm not sure whether my health would allow me to race in a long race, but I'd be glad to be there and help with tech and car setups if needed. All anyone has to do is ask, and I'll be there. :thumbsup: :wave:

Can't you just drop it?

I tallied up the race results sheet again today, from scratch. There are, indeed, only 11 drivers with 20 or more races under their belt... in fact, only 11 with more than 10 races, and that's including the Boggy Creek Race. The actual order goes: Erik (72), JP (67), Tom (58), Kyle (43), Wendell (42), Bob (34), Marty (31), Richard (23), Jason (23), Jonathan (21), Henry (21). Doc is the only other driver registering in double-digits at 10. The actual results don't matter, I'm just counting races run. Of this pool, only two have yet to win a race (or at least an "A" main), so it counts to having some experience.

The total pool of racers who've raced at HP since August is 65 drivers, five of which were guys who showed up for the Boggy Creek Race. About 30 of them just started in the last week or two, over 20 of them have just one week. As you can see - experienced leaders and cars that are easy for "rookies" to run are key.

The Scaleys are the best choice, especially as LMPs go. Slot.it, aside from having to have the lights installed manually, are too easy to mess up for an early driver, and the SCX cars are both lagging in the motor department and are a little too fragile. Set-ups might need a few more guidelines, but I think an experienced "crew chief" can do a good setup for the rookies. That was one of the reasons behind the DBR9 suggestion, the one we have (and the one we traded to Darius for the Ferrari F1) was set up with a simple set up that allowed a rookie to come in and compete with it, and I think about six people ran one of those two cars and did respectably. So, as long as the set up is solid and flexible, not set to one particular style of driving, you should be good. Also if you're using the cars in future events... my dad told me that's likely what you meant, not after each heat. Oops. :rolleyes:


Oh! One other thing. Don't pull these cars out green. For the love of racing, prep them! Oil the bearings and motor, grease the gears, and let those babies run their motors to break them in. Some of these motors vary wildly coming from the factory, and breaking them in will get them running closer, and help longevity. It's a key step to preparing an enduro-car that you can't do with just an hour to set up and practice.

Your e-mail has been fowarded to the proper people wingless wonder.

There has been some very constructive comments made in getting things set up for the first 4 hour enduro.

To answer some general concerns, last night at H.P. I brought the concept to the group that was in attendance.

Please read the first post concerning the basic ideas on this. Here is some continuation.

1. The cars will be what the shop can find readily available, meaning 4 or 5 like cars. Perferably LMP or Prototype, they must come with head and tail light installed from manufacturer. As for the race the teams will chose their cars from a blind draw, now after the draw they will have time to set-up and adjust what they can to allow the car to perform better. They will also race that particular car for the entire 4 hours. (So there are now worries about changing cars for each hour.)

2. All handles will be provided by the shop. (CASE CLOSED).

3. Qualifing still needs to be worked out. Everyone will quailify. Now do we have 2 spare cars to be used in qualifing? Or do we let the racers use their own cars? I think maybe having 2 spares used for qualifing would be best and even for all involved.

4. Spare motors will be a blind draw from 2 different boxes containing the proper spare motor (for the type of car we chose to race). Each team will be allowed to draw 2 spares in case they need one.

5. As for paring up the teams. Do we let the top 4 or 5 qualifers chose their team members or do we assign them? Assigning them might work best it allows for the less experienced racer (rookie) to be with a more experienced racer (veteran).

6. Car set-up will be up to the teams on how they want their cars to handle. Do we limit the magnets or open the magnets up? Tires is another good question or run what came with that certain manufacturer?

Now remember we would like to keep the cost of this enduro down. The shop will be providing the cars, spare motors, and handles. The racers will be providing the talent and excitment.

Any ideas or thoughts, please post. There are alot of good ideas out there. We just do not want to make this to dang technical Basically I would like to use the K.I.S.S. method.

Thanks.

There has been some very constructive comments made in getting things set up for the first 4 hour enduro.

To answer some general concerns, last night at H.P. I brought the concept to the group that was in attendance.

Please read the first post concerning the basic ideas on this. Here is some continuation.

I’m glad we were able to be of help with our comments!


1. The cars will be what the shop can find readily available, meaning 4 or 5 like cars. Perferably LMP or Prototype, they must come with head and tail light installed from manufacturer. As for the race the teams will chose their cars from a blind draw, now after the draw they will have time to set-up and adjust what they can to allow the car to perform better. They will also race that particular car for the entire 4 hours. (So there are now worries about changing cars for each hour.)

I’m glad you went this way, it should make it fair for everyone, and avoid the confusion that rotating cars would have caused.


2. All handles will be provided by the shop. (CASE CLOSED).

Fairest way to do it.


3. Qualifing still needs to be worked out. Everyone will quailify. Now do we have 2 spare cars to be used in qualifing? Or do we let the racers use their own cars? I think maybe having 2 spares used for qualifing would be best and even for all involved.

As we posted before, I agree with the idea of 2 qualifying cars that everyone will use.


4. Spare motors will be a blind draw from 2 different boxes containing the proper spare motor (for the type of car we chose to race). Each team will be allowed to draw 2 spares in case they need one.

Possibly, the shop should break these motors in before hand, as many of the drivers do not know how to do it, and there won’t be enough time to do it anyway.


5. As for paring up the teams. Do we let the top 4 or 5 qualifers chose their team members or do we assign them? Assigning them might work best it allows for the less experienced racer (rookie) to be with a more experienced racer (veteran).

Please do assign them, so the less experienced racers will have an equal chance.


6. Car set-up will be up to the teams on how they want their cars to handle. Do we limit the magnets or open the magnets up? Tires is another good question or run what came with that certain manufacturer?

I think I would limit the magnets to only one extra magnet. That would give two results: one, it would keep the cars closer to each other; two, it would keep someone from loading the car down so badly they burnt up the motors. On the tires, I think I would do with a spec tire, either the one that came on the car, or possibly P3’s or P4’s only.


Now remember we would like to keep the cost of this enduro down. The shop will be providing the cars, spare motors, and handles. The racers will be providing the talent and excitment.

Any ideas or thoughts, please post. There are alot of good ideas out there. We just do not want to make this to dang technical Basically I would like to use the K.I.S.S. method.

Thanks.
Henry

I’m all for the KISS method. I’m also for anything that will keep the cost down, and keep more involvement in the hobby/sport!

and the Trucks... well, you just have to love the trucks. :p

Yeah, just got to love the trucks! I have a Mercedes truck driver that still mumbles to himself, "It's big, it's yellow, and it's hitting me AGAIN! Now it's the other one! It's big, it's yellow, and it's hitting me again!" :freak:

Anyone who hasn't tried Super Trucks should give it a try. They are great fun slding around the track with their tails hung out. :thumbsup:

The trucks have been parked for some unkown reason. As for A1, F1 and Porsche's who knows?

The Junior races are Sunday's have been slap full of kids. Yesterday we had 10. Split the group into 5 and 5 and ran a "A" and "B" mains. The results are at the shop. Friday night's result are at the house. I'll post them up this week, when I have the time.

As for the comments on the Enduro, they are very good. We hope to finalize something with in the next 2 weeks at best. We will then try and set the date for sometime in April or May. (Need time to get the cars we chose.)

I will keep everybody up to date on the progress of the Enduro.

Glad to hear the juniors are turning out for the races. They are the future of the Hobby/Sport.

Everyone is missing a lot of fun by not running the trucks. I had great fun with them even though I kept getting beat by J.P. and Erik with their infamous Banana Trucks. :thumbsup:

Hey guys, Scale Auto Racing News #217 is out, and it's got an article about Hobby Planet's First Annual Boggy Creek Charity Race written by Erik Setzer, starting on page 26. Even with some text being chopped out, Erik managed to squeeze two pages out of John - quite an accomplishment for SARN, something hardly any race reports outside of the nationals can manage! The biggest thing for Hobby Planet is that full contact info for the track is available at the end of the article, in big bold text (along with Boggy Creek contact info). He thought it was a good article for SARN and looks forward to more such articles from Erik. ;)

Hey guys we have a few of us who race 1/32 who would like to come up there to race but no one can tell us where your at. I race r/c with people from Jac. they dont know where your located . Some info. on here would help us and maybe others.

Thanks
Carl

Hobby Planet
11233 Beach Blvd.
Jacksonville, FL 32246

Are you coming from south of Jacksonville? If so, the easiest route is to head north on I-95, then take the 9A exit and take 9A all the way to Beach Blvd., exit west (left) onto Beach and move over almost to the far right lane (but not the farthest, that's a turn lane). The next stop light after St. John's Bluff is the corner of Cortez, where Hobby Planet is located. Has a big "Slot Car Racing" sign and all.

http://www.inisfail.com/~neflslotcars/hobbyplanet/hp-map.gif
Note than on this map, 9A isn't shown going all the way across... some online mapping places are still having a problem coping with 9A's progress, but it *does* come from south and connects where you see it connecting to Beach there.

Here's a picture of the front, so you can spot it. This was from the race that the report was about, so the Brumos car is in front of the shop.

Here are the results from the 1st Annual Robert F. Snidgrass Memorial Race.
There were 6 different winners from the racing action from yesterday.
The format of this race was done differently from all other racing at Hobby Planet. Qualifing was done after all the racers where registered. Everybody qualified either one of four cars for this race. The qualifing format worked out rather well. After all cars where qualified the racers were then grouped into groups of 4. Except for the 6 fastest cars of the day. These 6 cars ran a different race format, more on that later.
