Mike R and 1320 sure like to wreck a thread and make it all about themselves!

Back to the topic, how do you tech an electric car?
I'm guessing you could make one repeat with the right programming but how would anyone be able to find it?

If the batteries were charged at 100% or 80% capacity and a processor would only constantly supply power output required for batteries charged at 70% ?

It would be way over my head.

Back to your regular scheduled catfight.

Dualing egos..
anyway..

Yes they have overwhelming technology our current cars don’t have. The basics, track , tires, lights, stripe driving are the same however the advanced power system is far superior to ours, ie; weather doesn’t affect them. Becomes easier to dial. Yes I’m sure battery temp and charge are factors... think about it.. Autonomous driving??

I could care less about Ed. I can learn zero from Ed.

I'm tired of officials throwing there weight around at their will because nobody stands up.

It'll dawn on you what I'm fed up with over the next year as your freedom becomes more and more controlled by the whims of arbitrary power.

You can't fight city hall alongside an entire society that has become spineless, shallow, weak and self absorbed.

the tesla I ran against seemed more suspect to traction inconsistencies. even though it was all wheel drive it still would spin some at the hit. it looked like the mustangs were hooked up pretty well.

for those that saw them in person, did they seem pretty consistent? just curious

pauley, I don't know if the CJ1400 ran on Sunday, didn't hang around but I watched both passes on Saturday and it's no bracket car yet, moving .14 in ET. Nonetheless, very impressive performance.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Mike, you didn't reply to the topic at hand which I was trying to get back on track. I probably speak for over 1/2 of DRR that we don't give a **** about you being DQ'd three years ago to win $1000.

I don't have anyone on ignore here but I am getting close.

I wonder what the front/rear weight bias is.

Lmao yes!

Then there's the Grid thingy... Do they bring their own power or will the track be paying for it??

It's a useful feature, and you can always un-ignore. Further, their name still shows in the the thread sequence, and you can click show post if you decide you want to see a particular post on a one by one basis.

You call that speaking? Really? I call it an admission you'd bend over without a word, if an official ordered you to.

I can speak for 100% of DRR. They'd give a fok if a track official made up a fantasy story to put the guy they just beat in the semifinal rd, back into the race and into the final round 45 minutes after the guy they beat loaded up, declared loser originally. Then in the days following the race track officials wouldn't repeat the BS story they used to put the loser back in the race, due to video showing their BS story to put the loser in the final rd, was impossible.

Put me on ignore? What do you think this place is, girl school?

Now there might be a can of worms too. Can an electric car be made to behave like a timed throttle stop car? Those autonomous driving cars have to have a way to react to traffic signals, don't they? Take care. Tom Worthington


If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.

Ok Mike, I understand now more than ever that you just need the attention. I won't respond anymore towards your posts.

You harp on loosing a low paying race for years and want to be respected? Give it a break

Then track officials wouldn't repeat the BS story they used to put the loser back in the race, the next day after everyone had a chance to see the replay of the race, on video.

I'm not bending over anything! That kind of talk is not warranted here!

I just was trying to point out that you and 1320 were ruining an interesting topic.

End rant again!

Does anyone here have an electric car as a daily driver?

I've yet to drive one. I rented a gas Jeep that would shut the engine off at red lights and found it really annoying. Is it the same? I wouldn't think so because of the instant throttle response and torque.

Instead of putting Paul Revere on ignore, do what I do... pretend he's talking about a Kindergarten coloring contest where the teacher didn't pick his drawing of a sunset and he's still salty about it.

Imaging him at his 30th class anniversary..."I won that contest...want this see evidence?!" Then he pulls out the framed photo. "Look at the color distribution!"

Too much bottom end power. They need to retard the armature.

It's more like Bradenton Motorsports Park invents a story to put a semifinal round loser back in a race that pays a $1000. Then when the replay video of the race surfaces in the days following the race that conclusively show's track officials invented story to be impossible. Bradenton Motorsports Park confirms their invented story was impossible according to the video replay, by refusing to answer for falsifying the events caught on video, leading up to putting the losing car back in the race for no real reason.

Bradenton Motorsports Park officials lied, and then ran away when video showed conclusively, they lied. To this day they're running from their lie.

You've made your point, everyone gets it, you don't have to keep harping on it over and over. You've already made your admission quite clear that if track officials invented a story to put a guy you raced back in after he already loaded up declared loser, you'd bend over and take it by not uttering a peep about it!! That's you Sally, your admission has been processed and your bend over boy status approved!! Now quit your cry'n would ya? You're already a F'n disgrace to man!
