OT: Actually landed it with no damage

Ummm, that's not supposed to be there


I think this is the worst damage I've done to this plane yet. By the looks of it it's only holding on by a couple of beams

 

Yeah, who needs springs anyways?

Unfortunately, you can't adjust camber on solid axle suspension, so I can only use negative camber on the front wheels.

 

If only he had been wearing his seatbelt, he might have been okay...

 

RIP Kashira
Had very bad wreck with Honda, RIP

 

So I was curious, and I ran a little experiment, comparing acceleration with and without ESC and Traction Control turned on...
With regular ESC, the Sunburst reached 77 MPH before smashing into the wall.
With sport ESC, the Sunburst reached 77 MPH before smashing into the wall.
With no ESC, the Sunburst reached 77 MPH before smashing into the wall.
Hence, I can conclude that, at least in this case, traction control makes absolutely no difference as to straight line acceleration in a front wheel drive Sunburst.

 

Pick your poison.

Yes, I am using a low spec model, the 2.0 Sport with a DCT. However, I ran the experiment (yes, launching from idle) again, this time just comparing 0-62 times. Regular ESC resulted in 8.21 seconds, sport resulted in 7.97 seconds, and no ESC resulted in 8.13 seconds. The difference is negligible at most.

Now, as to launching with full gas and brake (4100 rpm)...
Regular ESC resulted in 8.32 seconds to 62. Sport ESC resulted in 8.01 seconds, and no ESC resulted in 8.12 seconds to 60. All three are slower when being launched compared to just going full throttle from idle. This may have to do with the fact that, as a dual clutch transmission, there is no torque converter, but at least for this situation, the differences are all tiny.
