BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [Qualifying R5]

Shall I send it on over to ya?

I guess you could, but GenJeFT is the one who’s going to be running Automation when we do our analysis. GenJeFT: you good to receive the car .zip files?

Yea, just send me what you sent Der Bayer. Same format and everything.

Can I also send in my car for analysis GeneJeFTt?

Anyone who entered into the competition can send their car in.

Just for information: The usual commentators are going to make a review of the cars at some point.

@Der Bayer: Thanks for the heads-up! Do you think it will be the kind of brief overviews that we saw in the last season between race heats? I don’t know what GenJeFT was planning, but my own natural inclination is towards pretty numbers-heavy analysis - there might not be a huge overlap in terms of what we’re doing.

I don’t know exactly what they have planned. But it will be some time until then because pyrlix and me are busy, so if you want to do something in-depth I can share the car files.

That would be neat! I don’t want to talk publicly about the hidden details of any specific car in detail without permission, but having a chance to look at the full set would allow me (and GenJeFT, if they so choose) to talk about trends in the entire field.

(Oh, by the way: did you get AshleyBlack’s note about fixing the file-save errors in [edit: his] .lua files?)

Yes, I got it, but it won’t be fixed in Race 1.

Will race 1 be this Sunday?

I was only thinking general comments on the cars, nothing really in depth unless we find something interesting or unusual (like an insane redline). Now if Packbat wants to look at the cars and do some heavy number crunching first I am good with that. As a former intel guy I am always up for some heavy analysis.

By the way, stream test on Wednesday around 4:30 PM EST or 8:30 PM GMT.

EDIT

My challenge is to make a Pushrod engined car that would be competitive in this contests format.

Most recent news I have from the commentators is that they cannot make the first race before July. I’m on a longer business trip soon, too, so I’m not too sad about that. I will prepare as much as I can until then so we won’t lose any more time from July on.

After July would be quite nice, would be up for commentating almost any time after that :slight_smile:

Im up for having my car reviewed.

I have no problem too :slight_smile:

It’s going to be an interesting event… those light cars hmm.
At the end I “went nuts” and sent the tyre wear to hell, let see what happens hehe.

Feel free to look through my entry.

I think it would be neat to have my car reviewed.

Also my fuel economy was much better, then I tried to get more speed out of the car and forgot about it when I gave up on that idea.

GenJeFT, feel free to look over my car too. Do I need to PM you the .luas?
