Pro Sedan
#1
Well, we actually had our first Pro Sedan race! I was very pleased with the competition. We may need to iron out some details as we go, but I think it was a great start.
For those not familiar with this new MARCCA sedan class, it is:
1. 19T/Roar spec stock brushless (maybe regular brushless)
2. Take-Off 27 tires
3. Other normal sedan spec are to be followed, weight, size, ect.
4. Racers need to show a good understanding of proper driver etiquette.
The only issue that was of any concern today I think was driver etiquette. While it was 10 times better than the class I am normally forced to run, I think it could have been a little better. Remember we have to set the bar for the new guys to follow. I know these cars are going to be a handfull, but the experts should be able to handle it.
All in all, I was incredibly pleased with the first day of Pro Sedan!

St dev on best 20 laps:
Giovanni .185
Stan .108 (watch out once this guy gets his car figured out!)
John .251
Jeff .518
Paul 2.103
Jordan 1.073
Cesar .205
I think Jeff and Paul had some technical difficulties with the ever popular "plow disc" apex markers.

We had seven cars, three heats and a main...
Four races with almost all drivers on the same lap and I can't recall anyone breaking due to contact.
A resounding success I think.
Great idea John and thanks for the diligence in getting it together!

More Pro Sedan results! Definite separation in performance, 4 fast guys, 1 slow guy...ahem...
Jeff made some silly change to his car for the main and caused it to become undrivable. I made no changes and it was still slow! Looks like Jordan found his class, looks like I have to do the same.
