Woo Hoo I posted the single fasted lap on the oval this weekend!

I actually ran three 9.5's back to back in that race.

Add some lines inbetween each class. Alittle hard to read like that.

I don't think so. I've got the sprint heat sheet for the first qualifier that shows a 9.4 lap for my car.

BTW, sent you a PM.

I don't have the car with me, I will let you know when I get home. I can tell you I never temped the car because I could easily touch the motor and it was only warm.

Well Im not privied to that information, so this is what you get. If the system can do that, we should turn on that function. GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ you try to do something and POW.

The problem has always been that the results page never showed any lap times from the qualifiers. In fact, qualifier lap times are usually faster and lap counts are usually higher than in the mains because there is less traffic.

That might not be the case any more for off-road because of what I pointed out earlier. The short first lap gives an apparent advantage to race counts/times in the mains over the heats by about 18 seconds.

9.7 not bad for EDM...it is strange to see myself with the fast lap....I will enjoy it..till next week anyhow....

DR folks, I got a stock Slash 2WD RTR ( Jerry WhelChel edition) RTR for sale.

Its been raced once indoors at Dirtrunners, and ran outdoors once in a car park. Selling for a friend.
Has a little road-rash on the roof of the body but in general is in new condition. Comes in box with paperwork and radio. PM me if interested. Retails around $220. Asking here first before hitting HT/Rctech etc.

All you need is a battery/charger and you can get in on a competitive/cost effective class at DirtRunners.

PM me if your interested.

I made a couple changes to the results and Wayne was able to get the TQ times and lap times included.

We had an issue in a few off road classes where the first few racers were not getting their first lap counted - after my short course mod main, this was corrected - there was a delay time setting for the first lap we shortened from 5 seconds to 3 seconds. There should be no more missed laps.

I did not adjust one of the short course mains because there were several short lap times and I do not what happened to cause them, so it is difficult to correct them. I believe I fixed all the other issues in the results, there were none after the short course mod main when we made the change.

Nick - The first lap time delay is set to work just the opposite of the way you have it set. It is there for a situation like ours where you start just before the loop, and would otherwise have short first laps. The delay is set so no one counts the first time over the loop - counting starts the second time you cross. If our first laps were always at least 3 seconds, and our fastest full lap was say 23 seconds, you'd set the first lap delay for something like 25 seconds. The loop wouldn't go live until 25 seconds after the horn sounds. If you want to count the short first lap, why have the delay set to anything other than 0 - the loop should go live as soon as the horn sounds.

B&B doesn't have a true short lap lockout like most scoring programs do; it has a feature call 'lap time check' that when set to 'auto' looks at a racer's laps and decides if there are irregularities and flags any long or short ones :rolleyes: I suspect we don't have that set to auto, because I never see any flagging in the lap times. You can also set it manually to flag below a certain time, and over a certain time. I suspect we also don't set that, again, because I never see flags. The program doesn't 'do' anything with the flags - the race director is supposed to look at the results after each heat or main and determine what happened to set the flag, and make any adjustments (add or remove laps) manually. Again - I suspect we don't take any actions on short laps or long (missed) ones. That B main in SC Mod had a lot of goofy stuff happen, and it altered the results and the bumpups - not good.

There is a reason tracks are buying RC Scoring Pro, or even J-Lap...

I get the impression people like the idea of a short first lap even though it invalidates any comparison of heat laps to laps in the main on the off-road track.

I noticed the Short Course Mod B main "goofy stuff" too.

With IFMAR qualifying it never exactly maps anyway, but if you eliminate the short first lap it is much more comparable from the qualifier to the main.

I don't think that people "like" the idea, it just doesn't matter to some of us. I race within the circumstances presented to me and try to have fun doing it.

Since its the same for everybody, it shouldnt be a big deal.

But it is not the same for the heats and the mains and so the records don't reflect reality.

Are we talking about this short first lap, time delay thing?

Yes. Actually, if we would set the first lap time delay to 22 seconds, and start everyone on the front straight after the jumps, but before the loop, the qualifying laps with IFMAR starting and the mains with a heads up start would be virtually identical - at least within two or three seconds of each other at most. For the pole position car it would be almost identical, I'd guess.

Gary,

I think that makes a lot of sense, and would avoid the inevitable collision on the front straight jumps on the starts. We origianlly were going to have a different starting point, but that didn's get implemented before the first heats. This is probably the best way to go with it. I could then set the records to the TQ times and we can go from there.

Which screw is it? Do you mean the threads don't hold or the hex in the head of the screw is stripped?

One of our guys is selling a platinum edition 4wd slash. Asking 380.00 with a lipo battery. If interested let me know.

Who could possibly be selling out of the hottest class at the track? We had an E main Sunday. When was the last time we had an E main? I dont think we had an E main at the last 3 Challenges?

Guys, another SC truck if anyone in the club or reading this thread is interested. I have a NIB RTR SC10 with clear JConcepts body. PM Me. (Yes I am starting to feel like a Hobby shop....before someone says it :) )

It will be hitting RCTech/HT later today along with that Slash if no interest. Cheers.

I run SC Mod and don't see a problem. We mix 1/8 scales. Plus the electrics have the advantage. But, what do I know.
