Thinking about getting the chat room up and going again as it is quickly getting into the silly season.

Is anyone interested?

Any topic suggestions?

Is anyone interested?

Always.

Can Ceasar figure out how to save it?
Or you're just out of luck if you missed it?

How to prepare a 1.6 to win the runoffs?

Sorry, but you did mention silly season!

[Tom Hampton]

Seriously, will there be transcripts thus time for those who can't attend?

Suspension tuning
Dyno tuning
Data acquisition and analysis

Probably not the correct thread to post, but if there is not much interest in the chat room sessions how about some 'how to videos' from the pros?
Sometimes 'seeing' how things are done makes more sense than reading about it.

Jim, your laser alignment technique would be helpful to see.
A dyno video session (99 and 1.6). That would be very cool!
Etc...

I am sure some sponsors would be happy to help foot some of the costs.

These are good ideas. I think we could go to the data acquistion companies as a group and ask each to give us an online demo of their products.

I'd also add the following...

Hoosier tire best practices
Adjusting fuel pressure on a given day based on temp, humidity and baometric pressure

Can Caesar figure out how to save it?

The logs are there. We can post them.

I just bought an upgrade for the software that allows 50 people in the chat room at once. I remember the room always being full and many not being able to enter. This should fix that, if we need more, we can upgrade again if needed.

Topic- Using camber / toe vs. cross weights for fine tuning adjustments. Discuss...

[davecarama]

Topic: Enduros (it is enduro season, and the VIR race is approaching quickly)

• Car Set-up
• Common failures
• Needs for full crew to win the race
• Needs for minimal crew for entering to have fun
• Fuel consumption
• Tire wear (HooHoos vs Toyos)
• Race strategy
• Pit strategy

But I'll probably not be able to get into the chat room anyway

I am talking with Roger Cadell about doing a full data seminar. We are working out the details and how it will work in our format etc. I think it could be very informative to all, regardless of what data system you use.

Will keep you posted, Caesar and Roger are working out the details

Change the venue to Mid-Ohio?

You should have 2 at the same time. One related to racing, and one to give von. C somewhere to share music videos.

Von C has his own place under videos now.

Tire management and tire tuning
how and when to set air pressures (after coming in hot vs cold vs going out for a second class)

I have no doubt you have something to say.... but, I'm afraid of what it might be.

I've gone to a couple and they're quite good. His focus is more how data can help and how to look at it rather than setting up and using a specific system.
