2024 Zoom Racing World: Weekly Challenge

[Blitzman]

The Bristol that is being run can also be obtained »- RIGHT HERE -«. The aa_bristol one.
Another reason to get it from one of my sources is that I May Have added missing Geo-Tag info to it(possible night/day problems on the server without it). I think this one had it though. 13x is on it.
Have Fun and Stay Well!!

Heyas!
OK, I am working on something for the next race after this, gotta test tonight(myself) sometime. Lookin' fer Fun in all the right places, lookin' fer fun with some ZOOM Buddy Racers!
I was told to run with it so lets see where it goes.
Peace!

Paul came out and tested. I need to see how to make the steering ratio a tad quicker, takes a lot like it is an old Manual NON-Power steering LOL. Those had power s..
Check out the old beater. Modified from Uncle_M's 1970 El Camino Junk car. Made it not look as much like something that has not run since the seventies and should not be running LOL.
Peace!

Peace!

1970 El Camino manual steering ratio is 27.9:1 (5.2 turns lock to lock) while power steering is 20.3:1 (2.9 turns lock to lock). Put a Chevelle box in there for variable ratio from 18.7:1 to 12.4:1 (I've found around 16:1 to be good and it's a bummer AC does not allow steering ratio adjustment in the setup screen).
And, in case you wish to look into details... - https://www.gm.com/content/dam/comp...n-kits/chevrolet/1970-Chevrolet-El-Camino.pdf

Have fun!!

Heya Ziggy!
I missed this yesterday. I am actually just directly adjusting the numbers, There are two numbers you can adjust, one is a ratio number but the other is a something(i forget) length, I forget if it was Rod length like you had for the suspension adjustments. I could try to match some real spec, but the beater is meant to be off its rocker arm a bit LOL. Like say someone stuck the wrong steering box in maybe. Let me know though if you think we would benefit more from a quicker ratio. It kinda may take a little from the clunker feel if too quick though.
I know the Transmission gears are probably fdar from correct also, just went for a feel.
Your car would look at mine and Laugh, Ha! What the heck happened to you? Har.

I need to fix the link on the Events page, need to rename the file without having a space, some things still stumble on processing a space in a filename ugh. The programmer can make the code substitute the code %20 for a space.

Anyway, I do not know if you tested after I made the adjustments and all.
TTYL Bud, need to eat etc...

Oops! forgot to put the server on loop! Up again!.

Link is fixed on the Events Page for the Beaters.

I did just get an idea... Only to help please those wanting for something more up to date and powerful. I do not really want to change things up but if wanted we could....
Maybe do a dual not duel but Dual, well we may Duel but anyway,
Two shorter races, one in the beaters and one in say the C8R? or whatever Vettes, or DPI at Riverside or? also?

Only if really really wanted. Otherwise I will go with being told by a few to basically put up what I want(within reason). Be glad I do not love Abarths or Mazdas or the first Honda Civics! LOL. Go Karts..

Had a lot thrown at me quickly.
Best to all of yas!

Thanks for the specs up there @ZiggyM!
The ratio numbers are actually lower than the 16:1 it is like at 14:1 already.
Is there a place you actually PUT a gearbox in or do you mean put that gearbox in by matching the numbers?
Thanks!
Stay well!
Duane

Awesome race guys! Thanks for coming in!!
Was a great night altogether as A buddy of mine was able to make it by about 10 mins after the race and we did some BSing and Jamming, been awhile, finally got his right number recently.

Been awhile since I've been able to get away with being this stoked ha. Wheew! LOL. Awesome! Thanks.

Nice Win MICK! @M_Nesevitch

Fun cars Ziggy! @ZiggyM I really like that track now more too.

Stay well all and Thank You very much again.
Yeah Yeah Yeah Buddies!!!

 

[M_Nesevitch]

Fun race fellas! Think I had the most HP, but I'll take it. You guys who haven't, should really check out @ZiggyM newest cars! You can actually dial them in and drive them with a little setup tuning!! Very refreshing!! Nice job Zigg! Looking forward to trying more of the pack!! Once it's done we'll do a big ol' release!!!
