"Natalee" desgn

So much great info in this video! Thank you for the time you took to help a new guy and share it with all of us. I like the blocks to test the drill, very smart! I like your timing system on all parts of the track. I like the fat Bering wheels as a test car. I like it baby!
 
In the end though it looks like I didn't do any worse than a flat quarter inch block though as long as it had the same rear wheel placement. What I did get out of that though is that the gains were pretty evenly offset by the losses. I still wanted to post it no matter what the result because it's all about the learnin'.

I am starting to feel very at home with the people here. Helpful, intelligent, meticulous, and always open to testing new ideas. Not bad for a group of fierce competitors.

If not, I would be happy to run it for you on mine and video it. I see what you're trying to do there and it might very well work.
There is no way you are married. Heck of an analysis there...
 
Cool tests guys. The car looks pretty cool also.

Kinser, I try to check in every once in a while. Just get really busy.

You are in the doghouse now TRE. Your wife checks up on you here.
 
BR's analytical pine head is amazing his craftsmanship skills are top class and I am proud to be his friend. Thanks to his friendship and helping nature I have learned a lot about Pro PWD racing from him and am fortunate to be near his "neck of the woods"!
Awesome video guys watch it repeatedly and you'll pickup new tips each time, it's loaded!!
Cramjet thanks for sharing!

It's not exactly a help video. It's more like an introduction and question video. It's a more realistic introduction because I did it right off the top of my head and even dropped the car by accident. No retakes here.
beatup


Tell me what you think of the "Natalee" design.

I believe this is a fundamental way to stabilize the car and keep it running straight along the rail.

Video is gone
 
Sorry, there might still be something there, but the design, as Bracketracer put it, had to punch too big of a hole through the air. I took it down. The Natalee car is now a common flat design.

Ok, I was just curious. No worries.
