Great Job OSU and Ravensburg!
I haven't really heard much from the people who helped us with our car from our German counterparts, especially Johannes who helped us extensively with the selection and design process of our intake, exhaust and cams... Couldn't have done it with out you!

I guess we set the benchmark pretty high, so next year's car will have to be twice as good..

Does this mean we are sticking with the Single Cylinder? In case you are wondering, there is definetly more power lurking in that little Honda...

I really enjoyed this event at a great location. It was just a bit exhausting driving directly from Hockenheim to Vienna, fixing the car there and then driving to Melk. Thank you guys from TU Wien for your hospitality.

Here you find a video of my winning acceleration run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9ZbG0jwgsc

Looking at the scoring of the special event, it seems that for 25 points in deceleration, a car went from 35 to 0 km/h within 2 m. The same car got only 9 points for deceleration in its best run which counts. Not sure what happened, but those 35.294 km/h and 2.05 m don't seem right. All deceleration scores for good runs are below 15 points.

The track for autocross and endurance was really nice. The hot weather and elevation changes lead to some overheated cooling systems and brakes, and showed some nice driving.

quote:

The organisers want to improve the comp to a fully accepted FS comp. And so it should follow the rules.

Is there any news on that? I really liked the atmosphere at this event, it was very professionally organised and we had loads of fun there (despite our engine blow-up in endurance...)
I'd be very more than happy to see this cometition again next year!
