Thank you, when all goes well, it feels awesome, the car has always ran great, but this is the first airstrip event where the car was issue free and was properly setup, traction, etc.

What stage Weistec did the SLS have? Doesn't the stage 3 Weistec SLS do 60-130 in about 4.5sec?

Thank you! I am not sure what stage the sls is, the car that went 4.5 I believe is jcarts, I think it was a c63, incredible weistec AMG, I'm a big fan of him and his cars.

As a teaser to the people who didn't see it. It's a dual camera, RC remote controlled, 3-axis gimbal camera set up that can transmit live video to the stands where a person with RC controller can watch and pan the cameras on the cars during the race. It's a prototype for sure, but the (bare) basics worked. It still needs some refinements. Later this week, we'll post a video showing what it can do.

If anybody has pictures, I'd like to get some copies for a promo video. Thanks.

For sure bro! So when you moving on to the new M3 lol.

meez · 04-24-2014, 12:48 PM

What were your other traps on other runs? Were they close to 174? I want to know about the consistency.
But good stuff man!

Other traps were 173, 172, 171. I only did 4 runs from a dig a true standing 1/2 mile. I wanted to get roll racing vids against some fast cars, and well known setups. So there' no confusion, it's a standing 1/2 mile, your best traps will be from a dig, rolling starts from the cone you will lose quite a bit of MPH, so the 1/2 mile distance DOES NOT start at the cones, but from a dig at the very back of the runway.
