Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - A Final 11/10/2024 on ETS carpet. Xray X4 '23
Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - A Final 11/10/24
I decided that my 450 front 400 rear oil choice wasn't the right one so changed to 375cst both ends before the meeting.
Practice was on point. Car felt great straight away, I didn't read too much into this as this as been the case for the last few weeks and as soon as qualifying began the car was horrible. Going into Q1 I changed my rearmost wishbone shim to a 3mm, up from 2.5mm. I left the front shim as a 2.5mm to create some "pro squat" and hopefully aid weight transfer to the rear of the car namely on power. Something I've been struggling to get right for a few weeks. The car wasn't terrible, but it still lacked something.
Going into Round 2 I adjusted my top inner shims back to where the car was a few weeks ago which was 2mm on the outer shims (on top of the hub) and 1mm on the inner mounts (on top of the bulkheads). This was now the same front and back. The car felt decent.,
For Round 3 I tried adding "anti dive". This is the opposite to kickup found on buggies. I raised the rear mounting point of the front wishbones to angle the wishbone forwards. If I had hinge pins they would now be at an angle to the chassis. The car was transformed! This is the result.
For the final I left the setup alone. I didn't get the best start, dropped down to last and then parking it to end up being lapped a few laps in. Started to pull it back ever so slightly in the last minute, but wasn't enough to make any places up. New Hobbywing motor running well. Still needs fine tuning on the analyser though.

Переглядів 15314 днів тому
Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - 11/10/24 Oliver's car has been very loose on the rear for a number of weeks, but finally we made a breakthrough and got it going really well for Q3 and the final. The adjustments I made were to the rear changing the toe in from 3deg to 4deg to stabilise the car into and out of corners. This works well for Oliver and his driving style.

Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - A final 04/10/2024 I missed practice this week, but the car was on point from the off this week. Last week's issues were down to a loose rear ARS ballstud giving me between -2 and -3deg of toe on that corner. On the front I also had -4deg and -2deg of toe out so all in all that's why. I took the change to replace the plastic ballcups on the steering so hopeful...

Newark Radio Controlled Car Club - C final 27/09/2024 Practice was awesome. The car was spot on. Couldn't ask for anything more from it. Round 1 it was loose on the rear into corners. Turn in was ok if it didn't kick out, but it was inconsistent and difficult to get into a rhythm. Round 2 I raised the rear roll centre by 0.5mm. The theory being it should give more initial grip on the rear and s...

I struggled a lot more in this final with the rained on track. My tyres weren't the best and without a dedicated wet car it was always going to happen. A few places gained, but then slowly dropped back down the order. Happy with how the day went either way. My first C final made at frontie national so happy about that.

I only did 2 round of frontie nationals last year and this year I'd concentrated on off road racing, but with the chance of doing a fairly close round I decided I'd go give the frontie a run before the outdoor season comes to a close. I took a couple of runs to get my eye in back running the frontie again, and then in Q2 the driveshaft fell apart... Q3 was a different story though going 3 secs ...

Quote from the rostrum "Gareth might of pulled out a blinder here" The way I saw it I was ever going to win or come last. I didn't do too badly at all.

    • @GarethJaineRCRacing
      @GarethJaineRCRacing 10 днів тому

      I believe it helped the transfer of weight to the back on power so the rear was stable out of corners. Combined with the anti dive which I can only imagine helped a tiny bit to really sorted the car out for that Q3 and the final. I suppose I could have dropped my rear spring down to 2.5 from 2.6 may of had a similar effect but this change hasnt effected the side to side balance.

    Looks like it performed well Seemed to have good control of the oversteer compared to the other cars What do you think the main differences are between it and a modern mid motor buggy? I’m interested as I have a race coming up here in Australia which is on dirt and notoriously loose in the morning (wet) but grips up during the day and my daughter is going to try and race 2wd. Trying to find something that is the easiest to drive with those conditions.

      The first think you notice is the front end. Back to back against the B6/7 it’s like night and day. You get used to it though. I think I need a bit more turn in and a bit less turn out. Just to lock that rear end in out of the corners

      Yeah I went up 1 front spring rate and was running a 1.9 front roll bar to make it safe in the high speed corners. I’d only removed 2 outer rows and 1 inner row off my mezzos (front) too.

    • @chowettgoes
      @chowettgoes 3 місяці тому

      @@GarethJaineRCRacing For sure the extra rows on those mezzo’s would make it grab, been getting used to that on my 4WD all season (much slower than you). What do you expect to happen with thinner/thicker roll bar?

    • @GarethJaineRCRacing
      @GarethJaineRCRacing 3 місяці тому

      Thicker roll bar keeps the car flatter into corners where the suspension is loaded up. Essentially the thicker the bar the less grip is generated on that end of the car. So a thicker rear would give you more steering out of corners keeping the rear flatter and preventing load transfer
