  Livvys Smile Charity Race Report - Tamworth - 4th April 2009 · 339 days ago by Ross McAllister

  Livvys Smile Charity Race

  Reported by Tom Green

  The livvys smile charity race was held on the 4th of April in memory of Olivia Georgia Meredith at the Tamworth radio controlled model car club.

  The Worcester team arrived to a smaller than expected track with a very large turn out, pitting was interesting but the 50 plus drivers all managed to squeeze in and after the late booking ins were sorted out racing was underway.

  Team Worcester was represented by Shaun Ogden, Addam Talbot, Alex Everett, Tom Green, and a close friend of the club Jonty who also supported Worcester. Even The chairman Neil came down to lend a hand and support his drivers!

  Before racing kicked off drivers were offered the chance to get a brief practice session, many drivers opted not to go out as it was mixed practice although Alex and Tom found the courage to go out and put a few laps in, both drivers were happy with the cars and felt confident for qualifying.

  Qualifying

  Qualifying in general was a difficult time for the team, with random mixed ability groups the team were pushing to set fast times but also dodging traffic and trying to keep it fair. The team split in two over which tires to run in qualifying with Tom and Alex using the harder Vtec 30’s with Addam and Shaun using the softer Vtec 27s.

  Stock Class

  By the end of qualifying Alex (Xray) and Addam (Associated) had the stock class sorted and were easily setting the pace, they pulled out a massive gap over the field and battled it out solidly for the full race duration, unfortunately there was some accidents with back markers and after some pretty unique racing moments the Xray driven by Alex emerged the winner by the smallest margin just 0.81 sec. Both drivers really had to work for the results, constantly changing race lines to dodge the slower drivers and still race each other.

  Pro-Stock Class

  In Pro stock both Shaun and Tom had made the A final in the middle of the grid, with Tom (Tamiya) taking 5th and Shaun (Xray) taking 7th. Both had shown brilliant pace in qualifying but had not managed to translate there super fast lap times into higher qualifying positions with unfortunate accidents in qualifying. The finals were not off to the smoothest start with many cars at the back trying to win the race on the first corner. This set the tone for the finals with many other crashes constantly switching the running order. Shaun used consistency to eventually win the final, with Tom making many driving errors taking 3rd but setting some of the fastest laps of the night along the way.

  1/12th Class

  Jonty an occasional visitor to the club took 3rd in 1/12th qualifying, his years of wisdom paid off as he expertly drove his Xray 1/12th car to the finish keeping his cool when his rivals cracked under the pressure.

      BRCA Advice on Charging Ni-MH Cells · 774 days ago by

      This article was published up on the BRCA Website before Chritsmas. As some people may not have seen it so i have published here.

      

      ‘’No doubt you will have read or heard the stories of batteries exploding and that the Norwegian Federation has temporarily suspended all electric racing. We have been monitoring these ‘incidents’ but obtaining hard facts is not easy, making it difficult to draw any meaningful conclusions.

      Given that there are thousands of cells in circulation, such incidents have been exceedingly rare in the past. The only serious incident that has occurred to date in UK was when a receiver pack blew, that has permanently damaged a person’s eyesight. Although there will have been more injuries caused by scalpels or super glue in eyes than caused from exploding cells, you still need to take care! The NiMh cells have a chemistry that allows the cell to ‘self-discharge’ over a relatively short period, (days as opposed to weeks). Lately, some of the 4200 cells seem to self-discharge more rapidly than other/previous versions. More importantly the amount each individual cell within a pack discharges varies (i.e. cell 1 might be .9v, cell 2 .8v, cell 3 .9v, cell 4 .7v, etc.) If charged in this state, some chargers will not know when to stop the charge process, as some cells are demanding to continue with the charge, whilst others could be over charged. It is also important to control the delta peak (voltage drop-off after completed charge) to a low value when charging. Once the cell has achieved full charge, any further charging will produce gas. The cells have a pressure vent, but if that is blocked or not working, the gas pressure could cause an explosion. High charge rates will also produce more gas and reduce the cell’s useful life. It is possible that internal gas pressure may cause distortion to some internal parts that could result in a short circuit within the cell. An internal short circuit combined with gas pressure is likely to be a ‘big bang’. Drivers need to recognise that the ‘matchers’ recommendations are intended to achieve maximum performance. It is the recommendation from the cell manufacturer that should be used. Best Practice for use of NiMH cells.

      Equalise cells before charging if they have been stored (with charge) for more than 2/3 days. If any of the cells in the pack show that they do not need to be equalised (i.e. the light does not show or goes out straight away) then remove the pack from the equaliser and charge for a short period (approx. 5 mins. should be adequate). Then carry out the equalising process.

      Never exceed the manufacturers recommended fast charge rate. This should be 1C max., even if the manufacturer states higher. (C being rate of charge based on capacity of the cell, e.g. a 4200 mAh cell = 4.2 amps)

      Disregard any charge rate recommendations by the ‘matcher’ if it is more than 1C.

      Use a maximum Delta-Peak setting of 3mV per cell (6-cell pack = 3mV x 6 = 0.018V).

      Never repeak cells after main charge.

      Use a temperature cut-out as an additional safety feature set at 42 deg. C max., located on the hottest cell (usually middle cell). If charging on a cold day then consider reducing this to around 35 deg. C.

      Allow cells to fully cool to ambient temperature before further charges. Be aware the centre of the cell cools slower than the outer casing. Do not put them in water to cool down; in an emergency cover the cells with a damp/wet cloth if you have to quickly cool them.

      Store cells with some charge (30/50%).
