scottybuckeye Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Bummer Wiener. What happened? That was hilarious when you went out to try to dig out that pick up outta the mud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwiener2 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) i went of course and a rock sliced my sidewall you can see on my GPS overlay where I went off. Then the GPS turned off cause I stalled. So i was studying the GPS data just now. I went into that turn at 98mph and slowed down to only about 60, then hit the dirt(mud) at about 50. Afterwards I thought that if I had let off the brakes and took the turn, i woulda made it... but now that I see the speeds I had, no way. Shoulda braked sooner.

That is pretty cool how you can graph it out from your GPS like that. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

mwiener2 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I have to remember to tell the GPS to lay more breadcrumbs next time... like every second rather than whenever it feels like it.

Legend Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 That is pretty cool how you can graph it out from your GPS like that. Wow. Very cool! Looks like you aren't taking the same paths "hitting your marks" through the corners. Me neither, dang it.

mwiener2 Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) can't trust those "paths" it's just points connected by straight lines. If it would record more points, then you could do that kind of analysis. here's a close up Edited August 18, 2008 by mwiener2 My Mods List (Updated 8/22/17) 2005 Outback FMT Running on Electrons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you figure out what is the max resolution, every sec is pretty good? Every 1/2 or 1/3 sec would be really awesome for some good data afterwards.

Shoulda braked sooner. Yeah, I think my main mistake that day was determining my braking point. I error on the side of being cautious, so after the long stretches, I nearly always braked too soon. On the other hand, I never went off the track. Somewhere in between Weiner and I is where I'd like to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 So did you guys change your engine oil before and after the track day? I changed mine a few days prior, but still have the same Royal Purple in there now. I was thinking just cutting the OCI to 2k miles this interval.
