[KVRC] Khamsin Virtual Racecar Challenge 2016

[LVDH]

I'm ready for the first race: it doesn't matter if there will be no points, I'm going to use the most optimized car I could design.
Here's the new car, with the official colors . I hope it can intimidate the other teams , especially MantiumRAY

PS: Is Mantium still hiding?

What is it with you? Dreaming about my car? Don't worry it will come and eat your's for lunch.

I'm still impressed by the performance of your car during the last 2015 race and I tryed to animate the forum... consider it a compliment. Anyway, I am hungry too.

[TalnoRacing]

Here is my car for the first race.

[CAEdevice]

Well done Talno. Your engine intake is a concept I would like to test.

[RicME85]

Is that your model you out in GrabCAD Matteo?

[CAEdevice]

My MP003 (that you can find on grabcad) is very different in the nose area, and has a front diffuser istead of a double profile wing.

[TalnoRacing]

Thank you CAEdevice. Hopefully the car is competitive.

The intro class will be an interesting challenge. If I were you I would try to optimize the airfoils (starting from standard naca profiles).

actually just a question on submissions. last year i only submitted half a car is this still ok or do we have to submit a whole car??

It would make things slightly easier for us if you submit the whole car, but it's OK if you want to continue submitting a half-car.

[etsmc]

ok so when submitting the whole car are we submitting with hx-shape-1 for left or right hand side?

[cdsavage]

I believe we will need to use the fallback method for K4.1 option 2, so the rulebook is out of date on this point. You should submit the 2 front faces of the heat exchangers as one part, and the 2 rear faces as another part (similar to how the cooling inlet and outlet surfaces are submitted). The name doesn't matter for now.

[etsmc]

so we are submitting the following if we have modeled the cooling ducts

body
wing-front
wing-rear
cooling-intake
cooling-exhaust
engine-intake
engine-exhaust
hx-front
hx-rear
parts-offset.txt

Yes, that's correct if you are using K4.1 option 2.
