Re: Launch Control Settings

Sunday went even better with a 2.07 and a 2.09s 64ft in the 13.5C sunshine and using Pirelli Ultrasoft tyres.
My 0-60 was 2.9s

I was the quickest starter out of all the race cars on Sunday. I finished 6th both days and I'm now 3rd in the championship.

Very impressed. What a great launch system.

Re: Launch Control Settings

My best start yesterday was 2.17s 64ft

I altered the base engine rpm values and the car just got faster and faster each go, like it was machine learning.

Anyway, I noticed something interesting in the boost pressure on my quickest run so I may try a couple more changes for today.

Re: Launch Control Settings

OK, I'll leave it at 3k, and try a little bit of clutch slip and see what happens. The improvement in front wheel speed updates might be worth a few tenths too. Its Anglesey this weekend, and only one of the 3.5L Gould V8's is entered, and possibly the Pilbeam 5.0L V10, so there's lots of extra poin...

Re: Launch Control Settings

This is the video of the SBD Ecoboost which pulls over 2G during the launch. I've slowed it down to 1/10th speed. Looks like they hold at 4000rpm to build boost, and when the clutch is released, the rpm is then clamped at 3000 while the car gains speed and gradually the base engine rpm is raised. Sa...

Re: Launch Control Settings

That worked Stevie, many thanks

With both front wheels off the ground, as I spin both wheels together at the same rate by hand, one set to 1 shows instant speed, the other set to 0 lags behind. (Both gauges are set to 10Hz updates)

I've now set them both to 1.

Re: Launch Control Settings

Yeah, Number of teeth per reading = zero, not the best setting for the front sensors. I'll change it to 1, thanks Stevie
I guess I wont need the logging frequency changed from 10Hz in that case (which would require a trip to the tuners anyway, so not a 5 minute job)

Re: Launch Control Settings

I'll check tonight Stevie. I'm pretty sure I cant change the logging frequency or any other logging parameters. LifeCFG doesn't allow me to view or edit logging configurations. It doesn't even allow me past the security screen at the start. So instead I'll have a good look at the sensor setup in the...

Re: Launch Control Settings

I did ask my tuner about whether the 50Hz GPS module would work with my ECU but they never got back to me :( The ECU/GPS module would be on for minutes before we line up and do our runs on the track, so shouldn't have issues acquiring satellites. This is from the two run off runs on Saturday. It sho...

Re: Launch Control Settings

I've changed the settings to gradually reduce slip down to 0% and I've noticed the autoshift from 1st to 2nd happens at 6000rpm so I've set LC to finish before just 6000rpm/40.1mph otherwise the gearshift at 6000rpm might confuse things. I can't adjust the autoshift rpm unfortunately. At 40.1mph LC ...
