Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

It's a live stream and not available - but I can see that it was onboard footage. I enjoy that for a while, but prefer full coverage where they show all sorts of footage. There are people who will watch the entire race's worth of onboard footage. I'm not a huge fan of watching it all that long.

And, damned right, that's a lot of articles. I can probably keep writing articls for quite some time.

I like the part where you could see how much throttle and braking and what gear and the speedometer

Indeed, some people are just stupid.

And, yeah, the telemetry is awesome. You can also do the math in your head pretty easily. Figure it's 6 mph for every 10 kph - so 100 kph is 60 mph.

It's actually like 62.2 mph, but we're good for just estimating speed. So, from that, you can tell they were going about 200 mph down the longest straight section, maybe up to 210 mph.

But, yeah, cars send back that telemetry these days. My modern track cars can all do that. You also have a transponder so that you can tell where the cars are - like on pit road or where on the circuit. It's amazing how much data is being processed at one of these types of events.

It was really interesting to me how the driver was using the gas and brake, and how it showed how much they were pressing those pedals, and how the driver was hitting the brakes fully to 100% every time he touched them and how we had the gas floored at 100% most of the time as well, except the times where he completely took his foot off the gas pedal. I thought that was really interesting to see along with seeing where they were and what he was doing. They probably do that for lots of races now but I rarely watch racing so I was impressed
