Do you know who the original owners were? Will Enterprises tell you?
I have chassis number 9 in Northern California. I bought it from Brandon Chappell a few months ago who last ran it in FE at the 2018 Runoffs at Sonoma. He qualified P2 but had a battery or alternator issue during the race so I don’t think he finished. It’s currently down to the frame and being converted to FE2. I’ll be running it in Majors (and maybe a regional or two) in the West next season as time and funds allow.

PS: And it’ll have a new data system from Dave and Ellen. ;)
I have 004. I PM'd you abut getting the transponder detached from your login on sites like MyLaps.com. Let me know if you get that.Quote:

Here is the most recent race video.

I am probably going to slowly convert to FE2. I envision coil springs first, then transmission then engine. Right now I am having fun with it, but I think I am experiencing the same thing you did with little FE company. If there were other FEs around it might be more fun.
Peter,
GREAT VIDEO... especially the AUDIO part of it. How in the world did you produce that? That must have taken several WEEKS of cutting and pasting audio clips. Very cool!!

Unfortunately, for that session my engine mic was failing or it would have sounded better. For me it all starts with good engine/exhaust audio. I have been recording F1 commentary (now Indy due to local tracks) from various eras. I started in 2012 and did it for sim league racing initially. By 2021 I had a 4800 wav file collection going when I started racing for real; so I put it to use. I was actually able to finish that race's video in a week. The commentary takes most of the time; which is why I started recording the local commentary. I can probably finish the video portion in a day and a half. The graphics, leaderboards and misc video takes another day and a half. The commentary probably takes 3-4 days; with very late nights.Quote:
