What kind of roll out number/range for a 19t

What kind of roll out number/range for a 19t
run a 1000 spur and a 500 pinion

Eugene gear 39/100 - 44/100

Not all that impressed with the L4 yesterday . but the track was dirty and I was alone . So I can't really tell how it is going to do against other cars. I guess we'll see..........................

Yeah George It is the same set up. I'm not going to blame the car just yet. The track was nasty and I need to change a couple things then I'll blame the car..lol

Shawn

I am sure George has the results.

I am sure George has the results.Well,the only one I'm missing is race#7! That was the important one to have. I'm sure it's in John's yellow clipboard.

I Hope We Can Race Fri. Without The Rain. I Really Need To Redeem Myself From That Terrible Outing On Sat. I Will Get This L4 Thing Figured Out If It Kills Me........I Changed A Few More Things And Need To Go Try It Out Sometime This Week. I Need Someone Else There So I Can Run It Against Another Car Or Maybe They Will Be Nice And Put A Stopwatch On It For Me As I Make Changes. So If Anyone Is Going Up There This Week Let Me Know. Sooner The Better

Pretty sweet thread and videos on here.....

It was great to see David Butts and others back at the track racing again. Hope this will be a regular thing. It was great to get finished by 11:30 by not having a break between the first and second qualifiers. It seams to me that the extended breaks is the cause of our late nights more so than drivers showing up late for their race or for turn marshal duties, because we repeatedly had drivers(including me) showing up late, but we still finished early. It would be great if we lived in a perfect world and everybody showed up on time, that is not going to happen.

I vote for no break between first and second qualifies.

On a second note. The volume of the speaker really needs to be turned down to 1/10 of what it is. I saw several spectators holding their hands over their ears,(including me) and some even left early because of noise.

This sucks! Its only Monday, and I'm ready to go racin again!!!

tom shoot me an email byarbrough@liftpower.com thanks bear

it was a good night of racing except that dang 82 car haha.i do believe saturdays will be a hit.

one thing i would like to know is,i pupose that when racing on friday gets rained out we come back on saturday night and try again?what do you guys think?

let me know.........bear

I LIKE IT!!!!! If it's a wash out on Friday, race on Saturday.

Sounds great for the locals. :)
But the out of towners will be puttin in some miles,time traveling or finding a motel. :(

Just my .2 cents..

move to jax!!!!!!!

even if we didnt run for points i would still like to race!

move to jax!!!!!!!
:lol:

I like making it a 24 hr rain delay instead of a cancellation. Motion has been seconded!

let me know.........bearThats great yall can run the races on sat. when friday is called off. Thats too much gas and time out of my real life. I do like to spend time with my frinds and family in Ga. Also I am not moving to jax. I love where i live and it will not be in jax...................

Mike has to work on Sat., and would not be able to make it. I think 1 Sat. a month is good for us. That our 2 cents.

Let's leave it like it is....race on Friday and the third Saturday. There will be too many who will get confused if we raced....was it called off....is there racing....etc....

This sucks! Its only Monday, and I'm ready to go racin again!!!Tom- I second the vote on no breaks between quals 1 & 2!

As for the PA,after you asked me about the volume level, I tried to turn it down but the PA vol controls wouldn't cooperate. That PA head is kinda old & the controls (or "pots",as they're called) need to be cleaned out good with contact cleaner. If I get there Fri at a decent time,I'll volunteer to do it since I've got the stuff to do it with. (motor cleaner won't work) And if that doesn't work,I do have a small Peavey PA head in storage (from my "rock star" days!) I can bring out next week.

Sincere apologies to anyone with ringing ears from Sat night! It's never a good thing to blast anybody away from the track with the PA. Good thing I don't bring my guitar & amp to the track. I could have that whole neighborhood cleared & leveled in less than 15 minutes!!! LOL

this is a little something that I found. I hear alot of people always asking me the same question what gear are you running. since I started back into Oval I have always said you need to be asking me what rollout. roll out is pinion x tire sizex 3.14 divided by spur gear = roll out.


Don't be fooled by chasing RPM or torque...you need both. Watts, (electrical horsepower) is what actually does "the work" in moving the car...the more watts, the more force you have to move your car.

With the introduction of the more "RPM-ish" stocks, rollout is CRITICAL. Most of the time it is overlooked. When I hear people discuss what gear to run instead of what rollout, it is evident that it would be easy for them to be way off in either direction and never know it. One pinion tooth can change as much as 10 points of rollout, depending on tire size, spur, etc. When we search for a rollout, we literally will true tires, change spurs, etc. to alter our rollout 1-2 points, which is like 1/10th of a 1 tooth change of a 64 pitch pinion. So basically, when we're moving our rollout 1 point at a time to find the sweet spot, doing nothing but changing a pinion gear 1 tooth is like making a 10 point jump in rollout, which is HUGE.

I hope that shed some light on it...

No Breaks....what are you all talking about? What about the guys (me) who races multiple classes, crew chief son's car, breaks a t-plate at least once a night, run back to back heats....its more pressure now with the breaks....hmm get home early before midnight...I like the idea...I gotta to try it at least once and I'll let you know...

Is it Friday yet? Haven't raced in three weeks..... :(

If I wanted to use a multimeter to check for a dead cell....what settings do I use? I have the little digital one from Sears.....I know to put it on DC but there are 4 or 5 settings on there (from what I can remember) which one do i use?

Any cell under 1.2 volts should be the weaker one of the bunch. The cell really close to 0v will be the dead one!

Thanks George...will do that tonight and tomorrow night. I have a feeling I am going to have to consolidate a few packs hahaha.

Dave, that means I would have to measure my tire, sounds like work to me.

i was thinking that if it rained out the races on friday night,then there are a lot of guys who would come back out on saturday and try again.we can make it a non points night so you dont have to come.but you could still race that weekend.we can dicuss it and see what we come up with. bear

I For One Hate Having To Wait Another Whole Week. So If It Is Possiable I Would Like To Do What Bear Suggested. 2 Cents

Bear Looks Like We Should Try And Practice Tomorrow. Raining Like Crazy Over Here. Weather Looks A Little Better Tomorrow

I think an unoffical thing would be fun and a good idea.

You got my vote on the rain-out day on Sat deal!
