    You know Cleeter, I feel like someone on the team needs a shout out. I have never seen Zach be negative, not once. He literally has a smile on his face every single second he’s filmed and you can tell it’s genuine. Even when something doesn’t go as planned and Leroy breaks or the f150 t-case chain snaps he explains what went wrong with a smile on his face!

    • @deadslow201
      @deadslow201 Před rokem +15

      There is still way too much anti squat (first error) in rear suspension (bar angle value is too high). Rear suspension still tops out and loses a lot of traction. You can see it in the datalog; when suspension tops out, and tire makes its last "extension", then acceleration/ G value drops.
      (second error) And there is way too much rebound damping, because they try to control the extension (which is caused by the first error) of the suspension, which does not allow tyre to go back down to track, and rear tyres loses a lot of traction. You can see it in the datalog; rear suspension does not move back and forth, it just extends continuously, and graph is almost straight line from start position (loaded sag/ car sitting still) to top out.
      (third error) Because they do not have traction, they try to use traction control, to "get back" traction. They can not get it back because it is already lost with too aggressive anti squat and rebound damping.
      (fourth error) "Nothing works" but they just add power/ more boost (and almost kill the engine? luckily boost limit is there...). Power is nothing without traction.
      So, what should they do? Turn down the boost to some basic setup. Turn down TC to basic level. Then they have controlled setup. And don't touch it until you get the grip back.
      First step to get the grip back; less anti squat/ bar angle value must be lowered at least to level where rear does not want to top out and stay topped out. It may top out momentarily at some point (especially if there is a dip in the track surface), but it can not top out for longer time period.
      Second step is to start loosen the rebound damping to allow the suspension to do its basic job (extend and compress in controlled manner) which is; keep the tyre on the track surface.
      Compression damping may also be too tight, but i is hard say anything about it because at the moment rear suspension still does not work at all because too much anti squat and rebound damping, so compression damping is not visible in the datalog or rear view camera angle.

    Something that gets overlooked. Still an epic new PB, wasn't long ago at world cup where you were talking about the stick shift cars which were in the 7.20-7.30 mark like wooahh these things are fast. Now you're consistently hitting 7.0-7.2 pace. Insane improvement from the 7.70-7.90's you were running on the old suspension set up.
    That said it is at a very sticky track, hoping the traction control work is going well because its going to need it at some of the other tracks.

    • @deadslow201
      @deadslow201 Před rokem +1

      There is still way too much anti squat (first error) in rear suspension (bar angle value is too high). Rear suspension still tops out and loses a lot of traction. You can see it in the datalog; when suspension tops out, and tire makes its last "extension", then acceleration/ G value drops.
      (second error) And there is way too much rebound damping, because they try to control the extension (which is caused by the first error) of the suspension, which does not allow tyre to go back down to track, and rear tyres loses a lot of traction. You can see it in the datalog; rear suspension does not move back and forth, it just extends continuously, and graph is almost straight line from start position (loaded sag/ car sitting still) to top out.
      (third error) Because they do not have traction, they try to use traction control, to "get back" traction. They can not get it back because it is already lost with too aggressive anti squat and rebound damping.
      (fourth error) "Nothing works" but they just add power/ more boost (and almost kill the engine? luckily boost limit is there...). Power is nothing without traction.
      So, what should they do? Turn down the boost to some basic setup. Turn down TC to basic level. Then they have controlled setup. And don't touch it until you get the grip back.
      First step to get the grip back; less anti squat/ bar angle value must be lowered at least to level where rear does not want to top out and stay topped out. It may top out momentarily at some point (especially if there is a dip in the track surface), but it can not top out for longer time period.
      Second step is to start loosen the rebound damping to allow the suspension to do its basic job (extend and compress in controlled manner) which is; keep the tyre on the track surface.
      Compression damping may also be too tight, but i is hard say anything about it because at the moment rear suspension still does not work at all because too much anti squat and rebound damping, so compression damping is not visible in the datalog or rear view camera angle.

    I know Leroy will never get body work in the traditional way BUT .... would a flat floor from the front portion of the car to meet the factory panels be an option to reduce some of the drag without altering Leroys looks much, if at all? Could add lil removeable panels in there for when you guys work on the clutch and all? Just excited as hell to see you guys so close and wish we could all help! love the vids as always!

      @randr10 Před rokem +1

      I like your idea on clear panels. He's refusing to do it for aesthetics but that really is the breaking point for this car is the aero. Worse than a square body pickup. Can't really make much more power with the current engine setup to overcome it. I think if they wanted to keep that look but improve the aero at least some they could learn a lot by looking at open wheel racecars or stuff like the Ariel Atom. Get something on the nose to get that air moving up and over the car. Put front wheel covers on. Maybe put a little deflector at the top of the windshield to get it up over those bars cleanly. Bring back the old rear spoiler and set it neutral to complete the top. They could also do some work underneath with a front belly pan and a rear splitter. Might be a bit tougher to work on, but if you did everything with that in mind the panels could be made to come on and off very quickly. Don't need to worry about a radiator when you're running methanol either so getting air into the engine compartment is not an issue. Opens up a lot more possibilities.
