Hi to Speed Specialists,
Reading some of your message boards, you guys are into this big time!! I am in the process of building my 3rd generation of car--2-sons, 3-grandsons and 1- great grandson.
Picked your site up from the Pinewood Professor's site, where I also downloaded his Speed Secrets -- as this race may be my last effort and I want to go out in a blaze of glory ;D
In following all of the Professors tips (most I was familiar with from the past)----but I followed non the less----The Professor detailed a roll-out of 24.00" off a 4.00" test ramp???/ My car ran a full 72.00" after a full build & wheel alignment so I am confused. Is this a misprint?
Can anyone suggest a easy test, to determine speed or length of roll-out besides buying a actual BSA set up? I have a long standing reputation to hold up here.
thanks,
Mikey
