Fastest Pastor’s LMP3 Twin Turbo V8 Nissan is tested at Blackhawk Farms Raceway in preparation for the upcoming 2024 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
Shane, I cant express how awesome videos like this are. The technical details on how you address issues are gold nuggets for up and coming calibrators such as myself. Thank you. Also, the noise this car makes is biblical, what a badass machine!
Glad you enjoyed it sir. Yeah while everyone else is showing perfectly polished non failure vids, I figure there is value showing how things really go even at this level. Thanks for watching.
Button is the way to go. Pressure release on the button and default mode to full wing. It is still several tenths per every straight section. At minimum 5-10 secs, and when fully utilized, 30+. Yes you can get to the top without DRS, but you will get there significantly faster with it. A good old fashioned roll dial would be the most ideal. Then you could literally dial the wing with your thumb for every condition. For every wing the side blades are the most critical element. They decide how much pressure the wing can hold, and which way the car itself is turning.
Had this fuel filter problem on an aircraft. Brand new carbon fiber tanks would plug up the filter with carbon dust almost intantly. Had to flush the tanks a few times.
Ive literally had same issue on evo i ended up using 2 gauges and found issue to be pump side then dound so much crap in fuel tank so cleaned the system out new pump and filters but i like the method you have used
I watched this thing go up the mountain this year spectating from Devil’s Playground - it’s definitely a favorite of mine, it’s such an animal. Question - Is Don relying on the TC pretty frequently? It sounded like it when he accelerated out of the turns at DP, and watching the onboard footage, it sounded like the TC was working overtime in 1-4th gear (which is pretty cool if he can lean so heavily on it).
I was gonna ask if the pivot point tries to add or reduce angle with speed but the way it was acting in those slows doesn't seem relevant. Oof yea control logic. Driver controlled like press to pass sounds smart!
Would you be able to provide the brand and model of the servo? We can see what it is rated for. I have had good success with Pegasus servos in industrial applications
With our "static" test of the setup with the control system locked down to one angle, the servos did hold everything in the required position, which confirmed at the very least that the servos are strong enough for it (which can also be augmented via different actuator arms on the servos). But with the system set to a single angle, the ability to be active is still there, and the lack of trust in the system is a big problem. It is just not functioning to a level of accuracy/trustworthiness we would have hoped to see. Solution is to control it with the Motec with a driver controlled DRS button - take all the guesswork out of it. Maybe @tunedbyshanet can work some magic
@@zebulonmsc7321 if anyone can work magic in a Motec, he'd be your guy. After thinking about it and rewatching, I did realize that you weren't having an issue moving and holding the surface so much as getting a handle on the programming. If you have g-meters in the Motec, you should be able to incorporate a lot of good data into controlling it. G-meter, TPS, gear, rpm, brake, etc
As he says in the video he not using overrun fuel cut. This means there's potentially raw fuel entering the hot exhaust on decel. Provides better throttle tip in response as the injectors don't need to replenish the port with fuel.
