Official 2019 MotoAmerica silly season thread.

A small block Chevy rebuild is only complicated for the same reason.

 

Indeed.

 

I said really close to the same stuff sometime ago and was told but people in this thread I'm an idiot and racing if suppose to be expensive.

 

Nope. Even if I could have learned what to cut, I would have never had the steady hands to cut it.
I could assemble or disassemble anything as long as the drilling had already been done.

 

It was complicated enough to train wreck half of Bradley Rays season after one of the tables was corrupted .

 

I might be saying that mostof you are focusing on the wrong point. Electronics are not going to dumb down, sorry. American racing needs to fashion itself after CEV, with Moto3 and Moto2 classes that feed into MotoGP. Fluffing up production classes in the hope that manufacturers will throw millions into racing is a miscalculation. Make racing something fans cannot resist, i.e. Moto2 and Moto3, with international riders, and fans will have interest. Add production classes if the manufacturers demand it. It's backwards right now.

 

Actually I was just talking about the Motec unit as used in BSB. But if you don't want to answer my question that's cool too.

 

Sorry, what was your question again? I'm not afraid to answer it.

 

He wants to know what his next move is

 

So anything actually new develop? I was out of country over the weekend and wasn't internetting.

 

Nope just more ideas of how to make racing great again.

 

Twins class!
AP is claiming 20+ yammies!
How many Suzuki’s ? New? Clapped out old?
What electronics?, yet better tires..

No sponsor for me, hope I make them all again... how many races will you dirty old man actually attend? (Keyboard jockeys! !)

 

I am planning a few Sportsman weekends including VMD this year... never been to that Event.. also most Triple Crown races just to invade your coffee.... just going to run WERA this year.. AHRMA plus WERA last year killed me money wise..

 

Funny story. Friend worked at a company that did electronic braking systems. He was systems engineer for it. He had a fresh out of college engineer hired in his group, and was asking what software they use to develop their system models for different projects. "No, we don't really do that. We just sort of have a few coefficients we change until the system works well enough." The look of disappointment on the new kids face. All those hours in Mathlab and Simulink, and not actually needing to use it in the real world.

So yes, in some instances, electronics are just about putting the right numbers in.

 

Fucking brutal.
