Trackday Nurburgring 12 november:

Hi,

First of all, congratulations on your work its impressive and quite motivational to do better ourselves...

I have a question you might be able to answer, are convertibles allowed on the nurburgring? is so, are there some restrictions? (I'm thinking of taking a trip there next summer but only if I can take a few laps)

And as many others, I'm wondering if the splitter worked and if you increased stability and/or speed and by what measure?

Merci Sebastian!

Yes, convertables are allowed, in fact: All cars are allowed that have a valid registration, inspection (if applicable in your country) and insurance. In short: if it is streetlegal, its allowed. German street regulations are valid in general during ' Touristenfahren', which means things like 'only overtaking on left side allowed'.
Last 12th november was a (private) trackday, so all non-road legal cars were allowed as well.

Yes, the splitter really works, otherwise I would not run it anymore after the first trial runs at home. I can feel it. How did you want to quantify by how much it works? ...exactly, impossible without a windtunnel (I don't have one in my back yard anyways ), but you can watch the youtube video op page 15 of this topic where I run digitally measured 220 km/h with the splitter on the Autobahn and see for yourself how stable it is

Walter

Salut walter,

les 220km/h tu les as fait avec moins de 403 cv. As tu essayé depuis?

220KM/h est ton maximum car :
- j'aimais eu l'occase d'aller plus loin?
- ou aérodynamiquement cela est trop dur?

Hi,

Thank you for your reply, I now only have to plan the trip...

as for the splitter, I meant is there a corner you know you go through at 110Km/h and now can pass at 130km/h... its not a science but I use a few known areas to see the difference when I update things on my car... Good to know it works, I was thinking of a similar setup, mostly for protection but better handling is also a good excuse...

I hear you, but I have not done that much laps on any track to say that for sure, sorry...

Salut walter,

220KM/h est ton maximum car :

Non, le Autobahn run etait a 'low-boost'
Le 'maximum'?: non, mais je ne sais pas que'est ce... surement c'est plus de 220km/h mais j'ai va peur apres
Le 220 de video c'est etait 5800-5900 Rpm en 5th avec le G50 transmission (vois youtube vid)... mais dans cette grafic ici de mon moteur et transmission: http://www.keversite.nl/motoren/motor.php?id=54, le 58-5900 Rpm c'est 230-235 km/h et 270 km/h c'est possible avec cette 'powerrrr'
Je n'est sais pas, mais c'etait tres vite

Tu as raison de 'aerodynamique': mon cocinelle c'est tres malade de aero.

[Alex]

Merci pour l'effort que tu fais en francais

Donc l'année prochaine on se rejoint en allemangne lors du German-Trip (hannovre le 1 mai) et on essaie ensemble de battre ton 220

What a good idea

Le # de cheveux ne pas le probleme...mais quand grand est votre coeur? (= how big are your balls? )

Regarde de 1. Mai Hannover meeting: mon 1303 sera equippe avec un turbo 1200cc T1 Moteur a 1.Mai...vraiment! Pour conteste dans le '1200-Challange' (dyno contest avec aide de ADAC )

Did you really write "1200cc"? 1.2l?
Waouh, I like it. How many PS did you expect?

Yes!!
The current 'record' is 130 hp turbocharged. I am shooting for 150-180
