Photos and Video from 4-20

Hal- That split screen video is very interesting…..

If you look at the entrance to the right turn after the slalom, both of you are almost identical (within a few feet of each other, for sure). The big difference comes at the end of the long straight on the left side of the course- Praneil carried a lot more speed off of that straight into the zig-zag elements along the top.

Cool to see a comparison like that!

I was able to kick it up a notch even further in the later runs on the back side as well. The offset slalom played tricks on my timing, but I was able to shave ~ half a second. I was doing my best to get closer to the cones and to hold on to the speed as much as I could. I coned on the last three runs, but I was able to get raw times in the mid 46’s. At least there was consistency!

Here is the original split video of Praneil and me with grip and speed data…That’s a lot of information to process for me. I think the video alone is adequate.

Very nice, Hal. Any idea what the measurement units are on the accelerator graph?
It appears that Praneil gets on it just a bit sooner than you do.
I ran through my video from yesterday against Chris’ one frame at a time. It was very enlightening; I will be faster :cheer:

The first circle should be 1 g. The datalogger is extrapolating though.
