Thursday Nights fun racing / Re: Thursdays next season ideas« on: October 19, 2019, 10:32:09 PM »
Lots of us liked the MX5 cup and it was suggested we do a season. I checked out the car and found my skin! which means we have already done a season, albeit Tuesday.
For you consideration. Flyin' Miata / V8 Roadster I'm hoping I got everything pretty close to reality. Tad extra weight, that wing gives a bit of anti-lift rather than any real downforce. Ever so slightly wider tyres but still the same type. Turns out even with a bloody great Chev in the front the weight distribution stays the same! Must be a neat weapon in real life. 829

Don't tell me the upcoming Oval season got you so excited you burst a vein.

Season Tracks:
Bristol Charlotte Oval and RC no chicane Daytona Oval and RC Moto PPIR and RC or Texas World and RC (8 to choose from) 4 rounds, enough to get us dizzy but hopefully not sick of it. 831

By the weekend I'll have three options ready.
They'll be: A season in the Buick and Pontiac, Ovals and their RC versions. Special event, Indy '52 Special event, Race of Two Worlds. How about this? Do a season in the Nascars then use 'Special events' as lead ins to other seasons. I can make up quite a few special events such as above and 'Nothing but the Cobra' etc. 832

Yeah I did. But at the same time I was redoing the Buick and now Pontiac again! (groan) so I'll have to back to you on that.

I've got one of my infamous fixed versions. Planning to contact the author with the changes, waiting to see if he revises his version.

Hardware & Reviews / Re: Triple screen users, what are your specs?« on: September 26, 2019, 09:29:53 PM »GzeroD, how do you manage avoiding a clash of motor/wheel base housing with U/S centre monitor? I didn't think it was possible to keep 32" screens so close unless you extend you steering column... Didn't need to extend the steering column, but having an OSW wheel left just enough room between the motor and the steering knuckle/QR. My monitor is sitting on the steering shaft. 835

I'll double check the upload. 840
Thursday Nights fun racing / Re: Track / Car Testing« on: September 08, 2019, 06:33:02 PM »... So I thunk it's a 57 Chev so I put in the biggest engine Chev made in that period, but than I noticed it ran slicks so it must've came from a lot later than '57 and just uses the body. So I widened the track and stuck those wheels outside the guards like a good modified should, also explains how this car can have an independent rear end. Beveled the mirror and air cleaner so it's not such an eyesore, reversed some text and replaced the tacho. And the collider is as forgiving as I could make it. |
