Sign me up Scott. Thanks

Welcome Tom!

I could not match your time in time trial. I did my best but this car is soooo tricky

Don't worry, I can't match it neither currently And indeed these cars are tricky, just one wheel in the grass and you're history.

Scott, sign me up for this.

Aw I don't own the track.
Will have to sign out sorry.

Hi Denis - it's fine, you can still race, but you need someone who owns the track to join first. I can join if you want to practice?

Scott, sign me up for this.

Welcome Malcolm!

Hi Scott. Thanks for the tag, as always.

I think I'll pop in for this one, despite not really getting on with this particular car all that well.

So please sign me up!

Cheers.

Welcome Michael! This track is not a tight as last week, so I'm hoping it will be a bit more of a forgiving combo.

Just finished so will get a drink and then be on shortly.

Throttle dropped to 40% again, I did wonder why I was so much slower than everyone else. think they are fubar.

That's a shame Tim. Hopefully you get them fixed or replaced anytime soon!

 

[Sanbone]

Might need a full race investigation here Eric

Really enjoyed that tonight, think I'm getting a bit more used to how these handle albeit I'm still overcooking it as I start to push harder. Feels achievable after tonight though, not how I felt last week

Hi...

Sorry for dipping out unannounced earlier, had to pop out briefly.

Enjoyed the first race though. Unlucky to Scott for the early incident and grats to Denzil for the R1 Win. Nice battle Khveenstra (hope I remembered your handle OK).

See you next time

 

[Denis Betty]

This car is right up my alley. Love it.
Thanks to @GeekyDeaks for organising and some great racing.
And thanks to everybody who turned out tonight and made for such a pleasant evenings racing.
Hope to join you guys again soon.
Don't worry, it's very unlikely I'll be out front next time.

Thanks again @GeekyDeaks for organizing. It was really fun. Nice track and car combo and some really nice battles. Soon I'll be on paternal leave and I hope I will be fit / well rested enough to do both races. Have a great week

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Results are up! https://simresults.net/230412-1qN

Thanks for the racing everyone, had some great little battles when I didn't get over confident in these things . Still have a lot to learn, but I feel like they are a tameable beast.

I'll have a little play with the 270R on a smaller track to see if it seems viable for next week, but I'm also keen not to mix things up too much to give people a chance to get to grips with a specific model

I did a quick search and found a few posts about the hall sensor going out of alignment, but I remember you saying you already fixed that. Is it still intermittent when it doesn't register the full range? If you haven't already done so, I'd be inclined to check the raw values coming out using something like diview (https://heusinkveld.com/download-diview/). If they are still low and you have a multimeter, I'd then check the voltage across the hall sensor.
