CRStengel21:29:41 16/04/2009it is sdc's year
CRStengel21:29:43 16/04/2009but i'm biased

Christian J08:02:23 17/04/2009It is amazing, though not surprising, how CMU TV manages to mess something up every single year.
Christian J08:03:12 17/04/2009WRCT audio is clean and is now buggy.
Beta-949508:04:01 17/04/2009guess we will find out if synched shortly

MAD PERSON09:24:25 17/04/2009yeah sure but come on
MAD PERSON09:24:30 17/04/2009it is not changing by much
TommyK09:24:33 17/04/2009sdc B should get DQ'd, clearly Sig Nu gave them a push in the chute
alex keene09:24:36 17/04/2009true...

marissa09:25:17 17/04/2009sound seems to be fixed (crossing fingers)
Beta-949509:25:17 17/04/2009video is back with sound
alex keene09:25:41 17/04/2009by rule, that contact is sig nu's fault though... you have to make a complete pass before you are without fault
Beta-949509:25:44 17/04/2009lets face it they got it fixed for what counts

MAD PERSON09:34:36 17/04/2009yooo guys, so do you think there will be any changes with the girls times
Christian J09:34:44 17/04/2009Yes well... SAE is clearly one to watch on the leaderboard.
MAD PERSON09:34:45 17/04/2009do you think there will be any disqualifications
MAD PERSON09:34:47 17/04/2009?????
TommyK09:35:02 17/04/2009doubt it

DanB09:48:01 17/04/2009I gave up on the CMU TV audio in favor of streaming WRCT directly
DanB09:48:31 17/04/2009it's a few seconds ahead of the TV, but I'd rather live with that than the choppy TV audio
alex keene09:48:35 17/04/2009its better now.. they rebooted the encoder
alex keene09:48:44 17/04/2009give it another shot
TommyK09:48:56 17/04/2009good song
DanB09:48:56 17/04/2009the video's definitely smoother

Christian J09:49:32 17/04/2009(and fails)
DanB09:49:51 17/04/2009yeah, well, that's stress testing for you
DanB09:50:20 17/04/2009maybe they should start broadcasting truck weekend as a dry run
TommyK09:50:35 17/04/2009was that a shot of Pika's new buggy that isn't rolling today?
Jon Kush09:50:42 17/04/2009htat'd cost us another 5K at least
DanB09:50:57 17/04/2009yeah, that's the problem

alex keene09:54:21 17/04/2009hahahaha
mad person09:54:31 17/04/2009yo so are you guys 100% sure that for women only TOP6 qualifies
Jon Kush09:54:38 17/04/2009All of the cameras, cables, truck, bandwidth, etc.
alex keene09:54:46 17/04/2009yes mad person
jpolega09:54:58 17/04/2009i second that, mad person.
ME99buddy09:55:00 17/04/2009yes top 6
TommyK09:55:22 17/04/2009after all DQs are accounted for -
mad person09:55:26 17/04/2009ok, i am going to the track, need to support my friend drivers. I am recording the stream anyway :)))
SigNu Steve09:55:46 17/04/2009Jon: other than perhaps the truck, I'm surprised that's not available somewhere at CMU to use
DanB09:56:11 17/04/2009there's an awful lot of video gear out there
Jon Kush09:56:29 17/04/2009The cameras that we use are the same ones that they use to broadcast the Steelers games, until recently anyway
DanB09:56:34 17/04/2009it'd be nice if it was on campus normally, but I'm pretty sure it's not
DanB09:56:51 17/04/2009what cameras are you using, anyway?
mad person09:56:52 17/04/2009yo one question. How come SDC-A women go such an amazing time
mad person09:56:58 17/04/2009what kind of runners DAMN
Jon Kush09:57:11 17/04/2009The cameras are really highend, and the lens on the scissor cam costs as much as 4 years of CMU tuition
TommyK09:58:15 17/04/2009Trent gave Any nightmares
DanB09:58:16 17/04/2009Heh. Yeah, that's the state of video these days -- cameras are (relatively) cheap, but glass is still pricey
TommyK09:58:48 17/04/2009don't I need to have the same brand TV to watch it in optimun quality?
alex keene09:58:49 17/04/2009the SDC women are a combination of fast women, as well as fast buggy... 4 of those 5 women rolled at 2:28 last year... so not a complete shock
mad person09:58:59 17/04/2009and one more questions again. Is it the same buggy for teams A and B or they have two diffeent
swiftsam09:59:07 17/04/2009ME99buddy quit (timeout)
DanB09:59:08 17/04/2009i have visions of a truck weekend broadcast done with a handful of iPhones and Qik.com

alex keene10:07:46 17/04/2009dumbest thing ever
alex keene10:07:51 17/04/2009but i think its sort of a WRCT thing
DanB10:08:05 17/04/2009yeah, it's a WRCT thing from way back
alex keene10:08:10 17/04/2009apparently there is even a URL...
alex keene10:08:13 17/04/2009yeah, lame
DanB10:08:19 17/04/2009it would be nice to be able to hear the starting gun
alex keene10:08:20 17/04/2009thought bordick was gonna take care of that
DanB10:08:27 17/04/2009(and not that damn yippy dog)
alex keene10:08:31 17/04/2009yeah, they had a mic down there last year
alex keene10:09:01 17/04/2009woah.. weird line from spirit there
Christian J10:09:31 17/04/2009I imagine their drivers are driving as smoothly and carefully as possible to avoid those spins.
alex keene10:10:04 17/04/2009of course.. but she was way tight and flat there.. almost clipped the inner bales it looked like... and went way over towards the sidewalk as she came into h3
TommyK10:11:23 17/04/2009haraka is on P-neus, Seraph spun on their Xootr compound
Jon Kush10:11:38 17/04/2009wil quit (timeout)
DanB10:11:42 17/04/2009that always seemed like a good line (good way to open up the turn; doesn't stress the tires so much), although I think it wasn't a good idea most years because the asphalt was garbage
alex keene10:12:24 17/04/2009it still is garbage.. the chute is gross, it's just schenly drive that got cleaned up
alex keene10:12:45 17/04/2009and only down to the bridge, from the transition flag on its all crap
alex keene10:13:22 17/04/2009huh? they can't do that....
DanB10:13:31 17/04/2009gotta bust out those ATV wheels
alex keene10:13:45 17/04/2009haha, yeah, that would look insane
DanB10:14:58 17/04/2009i keep waiting for some organization to ditch the whole capsule design in favor of a more open, better suspended design
DanB10:15:06 17/04/2009(or is suspension illegal?)
DanB10:15:33 17/04/2009(a moment of silence for the death of the two-wheeled buggy)
alex keene10:16:00 17/04/2009suspension is legal... but the shell has to remain closed
Christian J10:16:08 17/04/2009Suspension isn't illegal... just lots of lost energy.
alex keene10:16:31 17/04/2009and def no 2 wheel'd buggy
alex keene10:16:45 17/04/2009though 4, 5, 6 all legit
DanB10:16:46 17/04/2009but suspension would mitigate some of the problems caused by lousy pavement
TommyK10:17:07 17/04/2009get that rubber!

DanB10:18:15 17/04/2009what a great day for racing so far
alex keene10:19:31 17/04/2009hells yeah
alex keene10:19:36 17/04/2009if only i was actually THERE
TommyK10:20:55 17/04/2009Brazen ... the last non-Pika buggy to win Men's
Christian J10:20:57 17/04/2009You know... it occurs to me that since so many are watching the CMU TV feed over the net... having ridonculously expensive cameras does less than zero for us. And I've GOT to think CMU has got basic video streaming capabilities on campus. :-)
hendrix10:21:04 17/04/2009ME99buddy quit (timeout)
DanB10:22:07 17/04/2009But if you shoot w/ lower quality gear, the DVD (and any other archived footage) looks like crap.
DanB10:22:53 17/04/2009granted, there's a huge range of camera expense -- you don't want to use consumer camcorders, but you also probably don't need a rack of REDs either
Jon Kush10:23:53 17/04/2009In order to connect all of the cameras to the truck, we have to use cameras with multiple video out as well as audio out so we can talk to the camera operators
DanB10:24:11 17/04/2009wow, i've never seen a buggy menace the crowd before
alex keene10:24:25 17/04/2009yeah, this is going to be a crazy heat
alex keene10:24:31 17/04/2009that chute is gonna be CRAZY
DanB10:24:45 17/04/2009yeah, you need to go with (at least) some basic ENG gear
alex keene10:24:59 17/04/2009woah.. nice driving for signu there
alex keene10:25:04 17/04/2009did not expect them to make it
Christian J10:27:29 17/04/2009Man these WRCT guys are sooooo bad.
DanB10:27:57 17/04/2009i was actually just thinking that this was a pretty good year for WRCT commentators
DanB10:28:24 17/04/2009in defense, it's really hard to talk for 3+ hours without sounding like a dork
Christian J10:28:29 17/04/2009The problem is that this year they *sound* credible... but so much of what they're saying is just crap... like aerodynamics being the reason for squirelly lines while being pushed?!
alex keene10:28:30 17/04/2009yeah.. compared to usual, this is really good
alex keene10:28:50 17/04/2009he didnt say aero was the problem... did he?
dude10:29:17 17/04/2009wil quit (timeout)
Christian J10:29:18 17/04/2009Really good was the year that Tom Kelleher did the broadcast with Sam Swift... THAT was at least technically accurate AND informative. Maybe I'm biased though. :-P
jpolega10:29:21 17/04/2009i didn't take it that way, he just mentioned the aerodynamic angle...which is probably more important in the freeroll
Christian J10:29:39 17/04/2009 :-)
DanB10:30:37 17/04/2009i love that they're presently having a discussion about buggy rules and design
TommyK10:30:45 17/04/2009Zoo is looking to find every way to get DQd
muenzer10:31:03 17/04/2009dude quit (timeout)
alex keene10:31:05 17/04/2009if nothing else i'm glad they are dealing with buggy distances based on times (and not ridic sounding ones), instead of the "30 feet apart" when it is clearly nothing close
DanB10:31:32 17/04/2009speaking from past experience, it's really hard to find commentators with historical knowledge

Christian J10:31:56 17/04/2009Nice tie!
DanB10:32:07 17/04/2009CIA's push team is the funniest thing I've seen in a while
alex keene10:32:16 17/04/2009BIKE!
DanB10:32:21 17/04/2009and who the hell let a bike on the course?
alex keene10:32:21 17/04/2009WHERE THE **** ARE THE POLICE!?!?!?!?!
jpolega10:32:25 17/04/2009andy should have that knowledge, though
Stratis10:32:35 17/04/2009where'd the time overlay go?
alex keene10:32:36 17/04/2009wow.. problem child sounds like crap
Christian J10:32:46 17/04/2009What happened to the time display on the feed?

alex keene10:41:55 17/04/2009haha.. i will rub it in his face.. dont worry

Ryan joins Race talk
DanB10:45:15 17/04/2009in my dream world, someone will build a jumbo buggy so that random non-tiny folks can try driving
DanB10:45:22 17/04/2009I'd pay for that
TommyK10:45:28 17/04/2009its all about the geekhood for SAE
Ryan10:45:40 17/04/2009CIA has a giant one I think
Stratis10:46:03 17/04/2009thats their a team buggy!
Stratis10:46:06 17/04/2009ha! :)
DanB10:46:16 17/04/2009sort of, but "giant buggy" is still pretty small
TommyK10:46:50 17/04/2009g quit (timeout)
Ryan10:46:50 17/04/2009well official rules state it can be up to 15 feet long

alex keene11:00:09 17/04/2009it's zues.. i think she is just saying "oh no! not zues!" like she's sad ;)
TommyK11:00:09 17/04/2009i think she was just sad
marissa11:00:09 17/04/2009its the buggy I have a sentimental attachemnt

alex keene11:05:02 17/04/2009yeah
alex keene11:05:14 17/04/2009they are the worst thing.. though unfortunately necessary
jpolega11:05:35 17/04/2009worst part about a reroll is that you get the earliest slot--before all the finalists, so you get cold pavement, cold muscles
Stratis11:05:52 17/04/2009and no direct competition
jpolega11:05:56 17/04/2009yup
TommyK11:06:19 17/04/2009except on finals, then you go at the end, but would any Sprinter want to race again 30 minutes after going all out?
alex keene11:06:36 17/04/2009yeah

jpolega11:13:06 17/04/2009come on commentators...get *something* right
TommyK11:13:40 17/04/2009they 55 on the way to the Wind tunne;

alex keene11:33:31 17/04/2009they didn't.. commentator said he came up a little lame, grabbed his leg
TommyK11:33:31 17/04/2009day is all that counts

JWADE11:33:47 17/04/2009No sound at work.
alex keene11:33:53 17/04/2009oh for sure, but thats a LOT to sandbag, if it was on purpose

TommyK11:34:23 17/04/2009losing basil on 4 ... in exchange for that beefcake
JWADE11:34:27 17/04/2009Yeah, I just love that we've reached a point where I think a 2:11 or so is sandbagging.
Christian J11:34:33 17/04/2009True... but for them to have 1 team on day 2 and both SDC and Fringe to have A and B teams on Day 2... not nearly as impressive as they've been in years past.
alex keene11:34:57 17/04/2009well given the bales... have to think they would have at least made day 2
Beta-949511:35:07 17/04/2009just means a whole lot of focus on that one buggy
TommyK11:35:14 17/04/20093 independents take the top 3 spots
alex keene11:35:21 17/04/2009though with that A time, maybe it's good B didn't finish in case it beat A

TommyK13:05:34 17/04/2009but sources say that SDC Pika and Fringe are all tight
TommyK13:05:42 17/04/2009with SDC possibly with the edge
TXDERBY13:05:54 17/04/2009Saw it live (SN A made up alot of time going down the hill!)
TommyK13:06:01 17/04/2009The shove on hill 2 has a big effect
TommyK13:06:51 17/04/2009Initial Velocity is a big factor

TommyK13:07:16 17/04/2009I think it meant the follow truck had a better view

TommyK13:07:37 17/04/2009soe sweet passes
TommyK13:07:41 17/04/2009and even some rubbing
TXDERBY13:08:04 17/04/2009Any ideas on SDC white wheels?
mengo7613:08:10 17/04/2009am watching the rerun now
TommyK13:08:13 17/04/2009I wish
TommyK13:08:24 17/04/2009oh. I think SN A women spun in the chute
mengo7613:09:02 17/04/2009dunno if it was A team but i saw a sn almost touching i think sdc
TXDERBY13:09:03 17/04/2009SN did spin but it was not A
TommyK13:09:07 17/04/2009white likely means PU and since its SDC and they have buckets of cash it could be frm anywhere
TXDERBY13:09:33 17/04/2009PU beating Pika rubber?
TommyK13:10:00 17/04/2009Fringe does it regularly
TXDERBY13:10:24 17/04/2009So who has the best push in order (I am new at this)?
TommyK13:10:35 17/04/2009Pika also rolls Pnuematic in back -
TXDERBY13:10:36 17/04/2009Fringe is green PU?

TXDERBY13:13:07 17/04/2009Noticed derby parts in Buggy's

TommyK13:14:18 17/04/2009and then we started seeing pics of xootrs and pika tires
TommyK13:15:12 17/04/2009Ultimate is really tight tolerances though right? like 100th of a second to win a race?

TXDERBY13:17:10 17/04/2009MEK used for what?
TommyK13:17:17 17/04/2009for cleansing rubber of useless additives and making it bouncier
TXDERBY13:18:04 17/04/2009News to Me
TommyK13:18:06 17/04/2009If you see a black rubber wheel that is shredding itself then its been treated with some mix of chemicals
TXDERBY13:18:17 17/04/2009like Pika
TommyK13:18:22 17/04/2009yup
TXDERBY13:18:38 17/04/2009Sounds dangerous

TommyK13:27:26 17/04/2009Both
TXDERBY13:27:52 17/04/2009Did not know that PU could get that high
TommyK13:28:02 17/04/2009we had a pika-esque compound for a while but we found PU to much more user friendly, cheaper and delivered results
TommyK13:28:18 17/04/200990% involved lots of special treatment

TXDERBY23:45:59 17/04/2009what team has the best pushers, best wheels, and best overall cars (your guess is cool)?
TXDERBY23:46:43 17/04/2009three generations of soap box derby - now captain an Ultimate Speed Challenge team (got beat by PiKa tires)
radio kfc23:48:29 17/04/2009SDC had amazing time, indicating great backhill pushers.
radio kfc23:48:58 17/04/2009PiKA wasn't as fast as expected, but they tend to drop seconds on 2nd day
radio kfc23:50:41 17/04/2009Spirit has stability issues this year. The balance of weight of tires for traction in the Chute is difficult to get right.

Nipple-othermac07:32:25 18/04/2009buggy almost made me 5 yr plan
alex keene07:32:53 18/04/2009yeah.. for me it was switching for drama (lighting design) to econmics

Nipple-othermac07:34:06 18/04/2009he'll knowwho i am
alex keene07:34:38 18/04/2009yeah... well i realized that as much as i like lighting, and enjoyed it as a hobby in high school i realized at CMU that it was just a hobby and as a major i hated it... and once i switched to econ i was much, much happier... plus i started doing buggy ;)
alex keene07:34:49 18/04/2009so if you're tight with bordick, are you a Pike?
alex keene07:35:04 18/04/2009(he is pika, am i right?)

alex keene07:38:18 18/04/2009k.. cause it was all over the place in my 5 yrs there... yeah, that sounds right
Nipple-othermac07:38:21 18/04/2009then they came back, had real low numbers (hard to pay CMU the rent)
alex keene07:38:33 18/04/2009yeah
Nipple-othermac07:38:40 18/04/2009then probably did something else the p'off the administration and that was it
alex keene07:38:47 18/04/2009haha
Nipple-othermac07:38:49 18/04/2009kind of a bummer
alex keene07:39:00 18/04/2009yeah
Nipple-othermac07:39:19 18/04/2009Mostly around carnival, it made it easy to have a place to park and potentially run into random people from the past
Nipple-othermac07:39:30 18/04/2009kind of like flagstaff in the morning on the weekend

alex keene07:41:17 18/04/2009the one and only party i ever went to in DU was in the basement, and a fire started (i think it was saw dust from botth build, might have been during carnival)...
Nipple-othermac07:41:33 18/04/2009When I was there, we had disdain for the the elitist style of fraternities, but had our own arrogance
Nipple-othermac07:42:01 18/04/2009Anything resembling animal house was a source of pride (although stupid many times)
alex keene07:42:10 18/04/2009sounds like most frats... all the others suck, except for your own... independents got that too of course (i'm an SDCer)
Nipple-othermac07:42:32 18/04/2009Never had fire in my era (unless we were burning something we threw out a window), but it was always gross in the basement

Stratis09:02:43 18/04/2009yeah, on this site. its still showing the prelims leaderboard with nobody listed as "still to race"
Stratis09:03:01 18/04/2009i could have sworn there would be races today ;)
mengo7609:03:03 18/04/2009wooo sam!
alex keene09:03:17 18/04/2009yeah.. not sure... cmutv seemed decent about showing the times on screen yesterday, so assume they will continue to do that

mengo7609:07:46 18/04/2009yo! :D
mengo7609:08:11 18/04/2009what, signu A womens got a reroll or what?
alex keene09:08:35 18/04/2009yeah, dont know how that happened.. but they got one
alex keene09:09:10 18/04/2009also, looking at the official sweepstakes times from yesterday, and Beta had a fire safety violation and is DQ'd for a year... sounds like the end of beta buggy
Stratis09:09:27 18/04/2009wow
marissa09:09:43 18/04/2009what was the fire safety violation?
TXDERBY09:09:43 18/04/2009fire safety violation?
Signu Steve09:09:54 18/04/2009wow
alex keene09:10:13 18/04/2009in their truck, TXDERBY, rules about what you can/can't have in your truck
alex keene09:10:36 18/04/2009it doesnt say what the violation is.. just that it was the cause of the DQ, and they are DQ'd until july 2010
TXDERBY09:10:46 18/04/2009wow
alex keene09:11:46 18/04/2009also, some of the times changed from the "unofficial" times yesterday, i'm noting that SDC A women's time got a little slower, and mens A got a little faster... (less than a second in both case)
Christian J09:13:55 18/04/2009Hey... leaderboard on cmubuggy.org is now showing Finals, but it's all blank.
mengo7609:14:33 18/04/2009and yesterdays times removed? :(
mengo7609:15:31 18/04/2009"i can push my buggy with no handle bars... no handle bars..."
alex keene09:16:16 18/04/2009hey GLENN... go tell your announcers they are not using the official sweepstakes times... give me an email i can send them
cmuTV-Glenn09:17:32 18/04/2009I'll let them know

Demian09:18:33 18/04/2009oh
Demian09:18:36 18/04/2009yeah
Demian09:18:43 18/04/2009alan may forget
Demian09:19:07 18/04/2009andy and mark know their stuff
alex keene09:19:13 18/04/2009according to the spreadsheet im looking at from this years chair, SDC A Women's official time was a 2:26.00, not 2:25.85 or whatever...
alex keene09:19:26 18/04/2009oh i know they know their stuff, just dont know if they got that spreadsheet...

alex keene09:20:24 18/04/2009yeah, im not blaming cmutv, just hoping to help them out :)
Christian J09:20:27 18/04/2009Yeah, SigNu's A reroll just got posted on the leaderboard on cmubuggy.org. So looks like they will be posting the results live.
alex keene09:20:50 18/04/2009this Mark/Andy combo is so much better than the last few years

Demian09:21:58 18/04/2009you've got involved pika and sn alumni in these two
alex keene09:22:07 18/04/2009yeah
Demian09:22:24 18/04/2009there are few with the experience insight and knowledge of history
TXDERBY09:22:44 18/04/2009which is pika and which is signu?
Demian09:22:51 18/04/2009im actually surprised they are so kind to donate their carnival time
alex keene09:23:22 18/04/2009sssssssssssssss quit (timeout)
alex keene09:23:36 18/04/2009Andy is Pika, Mark is SN
Demian09:23:50 18/04/2009right
Liz S09:23:59 18/04/2009are you kidding? they love this. if they could, they would go to grad school just to do buggy again.
alex keene09:24:10 18/04/2009haha, yeah, no kidding
Demian09:24:22 18/04/2009they love it, but they have typically donated their time back to their own organizations
Stratis09:24:26 18/04/2009heh, like me!
Demian09:25:00 18/04/2009I think the Buggy alumni group that put this site together should get some major kudos
Liz S09:25:06 18/04/2009Andy is now one of the core Buggy Alum Assoc guys as well.
Demian09:25:36 18/04/2009the other finny parts is that Pika and signu have both been very secretive in the past (sure they still are)
Demian09:25:50 18/04/2009so its all the more amazing to see them participating so publically
Demian09:25:56 18/04/2009publicly...

alex keene09:41:44 18/04/2009but yeah, it's almost always chemicals that are the issue, not actual fire

alex keene10:41:37 18/04/2009yeah. take the faceplant for the record... though she was the H2 on the record last year too
Christian J10:42:28 18/04/2009Whoa...!
splayer10:42:33 18/04/2009neck and neck!
Stratis10:42:36 18/04/2009wayyyyy early shove
Liz S10:43:59 18/04/2009I remember when Sig Ep was just starting out with Tank. They have certainly come a long way!
Christian J10:44:02 18/04/2009KDR driver can't stay straight on the hills.
alex keene10:44:08 18/04/2009my video just dropped
Stratis10:44:16 18/04/2009wow
Stratis10:44:18 18/04/2009nice time
jwade10:44:22 18/04/2009Did KDR get the pushbar?
alex keene10:44:23 18/04/2009what they roll?
TommyK10:44:24 18/04/2009niceeeeeee
TommyK10:44:28 18/04/2009great roll
alex keene10:44:32 18/04/2009i have no video
Christian J10:44:37 18/04/20092:08
Stratis10:44:37 18/04/20092:08-2:09
cmuTV-Glenn10:44:43 18/04/2009video still fine for everyone else? We are aware of the hum
alex keene10:44:44 18/04/2009nice
splayer10:44:55 18/04/2009my video is good
Christian J10:44:56 18/04/2009Still fine here.
jwade10:44:56 18/04/2009video is fine here
TXDERBY10:44:58 18/04/2009video is still on
TommyK10:45:02 18/04/2009video is good in Hawaii
Stratis10:45:02 18/04/2009yeah video and hum both still going strong
Christian J10:45:12 18/04/2009Demian quit (timeout)
alex keene10:45:21 18/04/2009i just reloaded
alex keene10:45:28 18/04/2009its back.. hung i guess
TommyK10:45:32 18/04/2009no hum here - just Alan
splayer10:45:45 18/04/2009good improvement for KDR
Stratis10:45:58 18/04/2009both did great
Stratis10:46:02 18/04/2009very impressive
jwade10:46:02 18/04/2009SigEp hill 2 looked awful. What could they have gotten with a good one?
Stratis10:46:17 18/04/2009yeah, he realized he was gonna get passed so he shoved way early
TommyK10:46:20 18/04/2009they still got a great house record
jwade10:46:32 18/04/2009Yeah, incredible development on their part.
jwade10:46:44 18/04/2009Maybe they will actually keep it up next year.
TommyK10:47:03 18/04/2009looks like they've leap frogged kdr in buggy performance
Stratis10:47:08 18/04/2009hope so, getting interesting at the top of the leaderboard
splayer10:47:37 18/04/2009very interesting
jwade10:48:11 18/04/2009It'd be great to have two more top frats.
TommyK10:48:56 18/04/2009three great independents ... spirit, sdc, fringe and three good frats ... Pika, KDR, Sig Ep
GAB joins Race talk
Christian J10:49:53 18/04/2009Of those 6... all good tech... but not as consistent pushing capabilities.
TommyK10:49:58 18/04/2009interestingly ... all the frats have rolled and now its just independents
TommyK10:50:24 18/04/2009three SDC teams in a row
jwade10:50:37 18/04/2009What's the link for the heats?
Stratis10:50:42 18/04/2009yeah thats a pretty wild swap from 3 pika teams in finals
Stratis10:50:47 18/04/2009http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pq5bCmexWUsLruYCpfZ6Jcw
alex keene10:50:50 18/04/2009heats: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pq5bCmexWUsLruYCpfZ6Jcw
jwade10:51:07 18/04/2009thanks
TommyK10:51:35 18/04/2009spirit could have a monster time
jwade10:51:45 18/04/2009man I would hate to roll three finals heats in a row
alex keene10:51:51 18/04/2009yeah.. i'm expecting something surprising here
TommyK10:52:08 18/04/2009their pushers looked strong yesterday but looked like they had room to improve
Stratis10:52:32 18/04/2009is there a published list of the official times from yesterday? i think they were 2:09ish unofficially
Stratis10:53:34 18/04/2009haha someone's excited about the chance of a pika reroll
TommyK10:53:39 18/04/2009don't take the re-rol!!!!!
Christian J10:53:54 18/04/2009Re-roll always = the suck.
TommyK10:54:25 18/04/2009they lost a tenth at most
Christian J10:54:27 18/04/2009Any historians know if any re-roll has actually helped? And if so, any but a marginal improvement?
TXDERBY10:54:35 18/04/2009if SDC is faster why would PiKa not take a re-roll?
alex keene10:54:42 18/04/2009yeah.. i can't see pika taking this re-roll... but maybe they will... just go for the win... the rules state they can always ask for it, be given it, and then refuse
jwade10:54:42 18/04/2009Our men's C re-roll helped in 2001.
TommyK10:54:46 18/04/2009they will lose spots
Stratis10:54:51 18/04/2009they have a nice long (hour and 15 min or so, right?) break
jwade10:55:01 18/04/2009but only because it stretched raceday long enough for women's finals to be rained out.
TommyK10:55:28 18/04/2009do they have an extra set of wheels?
jwade10:55:47 18/04/2009They only had two buggies out today. They must have spares around.
alex keene10:55:50 18/04/2009im sure they have at least 1 extra
TommyK10:56:19 18/04/2009if you spend all night getting everything perfect and then have less than an hour to do it again ...
splayer10:56:39 18/04/2009cmu tv is waaaaay too excited about this re-roll
Stratis10:56:55 18/04/2009yeah, that'd be tough...but good on the pushers (fully warmed up plus warmer in the day plus knowing what time they have to get)
Liz S10:56:57 18/04/2009it is because Andy was a Pika chair.
alex keene10:57:01 18/04/2009well it is a pika alumn...
Christian J10:59:20 18/04/2009Very respectable, but I feel like they lost a lot of energy through the chute.
jwade10:59:28 18/04/2009SDC really closed in the chute
TommyK10:59:41 18/04/2009hill 2 going gimpy may have cost them on the shove
Liz S10:59:44 18/04/2009that was a terribly roll for spirit...
cmuTV-Glenn10:59:59 18/04/2009splayer - we played the replay on the back channel for the judges about 3 times before we played it on air
splayer11:00:23 18/04/2009well, that would get them excited. :)
TommyK11:00:38 18/04/2009great job on the video
TommyK11:00:45 18/04/2009love the replays
splayer11:00:55 18/04/2009agreed
cmuTV-Glenn11:01:03 18/04/2009thanks
Christian J11:01:25 18/04/2009Alums <3 Replays
splayer11:01:44 18/04/2009I'd love to see some replays of the women's heats
splayer11:01:52 18/04/2009I missed them b/c I'm on the west coast
cmuTV-Glenn11:02:03 18/04/2009We'll be rebroadcasting all day on the webcast
mengo7611:02:14 18/04/2009they'll replay the whole thing over and over throughtou thte day
cmuTV-Glenn11:02:17 18/04/2009so you can just tune in later tonight
mengo7611:02:28 18/04/2009exhibitions too i assume?
cmuTV-Glenn11:02:32 18/04/2009yep
jwade11:03:29 18/04/2009I don't know if I'm just as excited as I was in college, but my heart's definitely beating faster now.
Christian J11:03:49 18/04/2009All right Mr. Econ...
cmuTV-Glenn11:03:54 18/04/2009so you won't be able to pick the race you want to watch (DVD lets you do that :) ) but you can just tune in and hope the broadcast is showing what you want
TXDERBY11:04:38 18/04/2009I did not go to CMU, just started watching last year and my heart beat faster (very cool tradition)
TommyK11:05:51 18/04/2009whenever two buggies are tight over 1-2 it gets reall exciting
Christian J11:07:18 18/04/2009Brooklyn certainly never had a male driver.
Christian J11:07:40 18/04/2009And we're pretty sure Junior never had a male driver either. Perhaps he was thinking of CIA a few years ago?
TommyK11:07:49 18/04/2009CIA's stealth did, as did KGG
TommyK11:08:10 18/04/2009KKG, but he spun on both teams he rolled ...
TommyK11:08:36 18/04/2009great crowd
nhd11:09:26 18/04/2009what are you up to on the west coast these days?
splayer11:09:39 18/04/2009Hi Nathan
splayer11:09:45 18/04/2009I'm actually only here for the weekend
alex keene11:09:48 18/04/2009yeah.. i love the big crowd, but hate the way they crowd the road... back the F up!
splayer11:09:49 18/04/2009I'm still living in DC
nhd11:09:53 18/04/2009ah
splayer11:10:14 18/04/2009how are you doing?
nhd11:10:30 18/04/2009not bad... still in Boston, still being a ChemE
splayer11:10:40 18/04/2009cool
nhd11:10:41 18/04/2009you visiting other CIA folks out there?
TommyK11:10:42 18/04/2009its an all Fringe vs SDC final two heats
splayer11:10:56 18/04/2009no, visiting sorority sisters
alex keene11:11:07 18/04/2009yeah... hoping these times arent too close...
nhd11:11:31 18/04/2009should be a good heat
nhd11:11:44 18/04/2009are you all watching buggy together? virtual carnival?
splayer11:11:58 18/04/2009yup
splayer11:11:58 18/04/2009:)
splayer11:12:10 18/04/2009false start!
splayer11:12:11 18/04/2009ouch
alex keene11:12:19 18/04/2009yeah.. hope siwon is ok
TommyK11:12:22 18/04/2009bulshit@
Stratis11:12:28 18/04/2009that stinks
alex keene11:12:41 18/04/2009yeah.. the 1min is dumb.. it should be 30sec to restart
cmuTV-Glenn11:12:53 18/04/2009omg haha - our cam 1 died
alex keene11:12:55 18/04/2009HAHAHAHAHA
mengo7611:13:05 18/04/2009lol
alex keene11:13:06 18/04/2009sorry Tommy.. not laughing at you, i hate this too
Stratis11:13:18 18/04/2009this is not cool
alex keene11:13:19 18/04/2009just so nervous im laughing
splayer11:13:21 18/04/2009man... this is messed up
jwade11:13:33 18/04/2009the pika buggy gods are intervening
cmuTV-Glenn11:13:36 18/04/2009"We thought the camera was shot"
Christian J11:14:01 18/04/2009Can you call for the re-roll BEFORE you finish your roll?
alex keene11:14:01 18/04/2009yeah... this is bull sh*t... even if it wasn't my team
alex keene11:14:56 18/04/2009thank god
Liz S11:14:57 18/04/2009finally
Christian J11:15:07 18/04/2009Put all that anger into speed!
Christian J11:15:24 18/04/2009Damn
alex keene11:15:28 18/04/2009this chute is going to be INSANE
Christian J11:15:51 18/04/2009Hopefully Bnayan breaks far enough ahead to clear clean in the chute.
splayer11:16:20 18/04/2009oh man
alex keene11:16:29 18/04/2009told you
nhd11:16:38 18/04/2009darn, no pass
mengo7611:16:42 18/04/2009REROLL!!!!!!!!!!!! :P
alex keene11:17:13 18/04/2009hol... ly... sh****t
Stratis11:17:23 18/04/2009unbelievable
jwade11:17:23 18/04/2009That roll bit. Incredible SDC B time though.
Christian J11:17:31 18/04/2009
Stratis11:18:12 18/04/2009from start to finish that was Murphy's Law right there
nhd11:18:55 18/04/2009never would have expected a B team to beat Fringe A
mengo7611:19:00 18/04/2009someone go make sure no parking meters are torn out!
TXDERBY11:19:08 18/04/2009got to be lovin it right about now Alex
alex keene11:19:16 18/04/2009im just waiting for the next heat
TommyK11:19:19 18/04/2009never would expect to get screwed twice by the starter
Stratis11:19:22 18/04/2009i might go install a parking meter in my yard just to tear it out
Liz S11:19:30 18/04/2009lol
Christian J11:19:31 18/04/2009With an unexpected 2 minute delay... any A team can get hosed like that.
alex keene11:19:45 18/04/2009yeah.. that starter was crap
jwade11:19:45 18/04/2009
jwade11:20:01 18/04/2009Didn't help that that was the fastest true B team ever
Stratis11:20:59 18/04/2009hill 1 almost false started (twitched after "3,2,1"...seemed to forget about "Ready, set, go") then hung back at the gun
TommyK11:21:28 18/04/2009that scrub cost Fringe about 2 seconds
john joins Race talk
Stratis11:21:48 18/04/2009yeah the chute was costly
TommyK11:22:17 18/04/2009i've never seen Banyan do that before
Stratis11:22:23 18/04/2009right
john11:23:41 18/04/2009sorry..late to the game here...why the pika reroll?
nhd11:23:53 18/04/2009pushbar clipped by a transition flag
alex keene11:23:58 18/04/2009signu's flagger hit their pushbar
Christian J11:24:13 18/04/2009Cost them at LEAST 0.000001 seconds.
alex keene11:24:36 18/04/2009dont know if they actually take it though... they should be given the re-roll by rule, but i can't see them actually accept it
billby joins Race talk
jwade11:24:57 18/04/2009Yeah, seems unlikely. I guess we'll know after SDC A goes.
mengo7611:25:19 18/04/2009quick, someone replace the starting gun with a water gun!
Stratis11:26:17 18/04/2009(again)
GAB11:26:19 18/04/2009billby quit (timeout)
Christian J11:32:19 18/04/2009TommyK quit (timeout)
mengo7611:32:27 18/04/2009alex keene quit (timeout)
Christian J11:33:31 18/04/2009That was an amazing roll out.
Liz S11:33:35 18/04/2009two touch hill three!
jwade11:33:42 18/04/2009just have to catch the pushbar
splayer11:33:45 18/04/2009that's crazy
cmuTV-Glenn11:33:53 18/04/2009wow guys wow :)
Liz S11:34:00 18/04/2009record
mengo7611:34:04 18/04/2009omg
Christian J11:34:06 18/04/2009Holy crap.
jwade11:34:11 18/04/2009wow
splayer11:34:11 18/04/2009omg
Liz S11:34:12 18/04/2009amazing
Stratis11:34:18 18/04/2009W O W
Christian J11:34:26 18/04/2009In-sane.
jwade11:34:35 18/04/2009Perfect.
TommyK11:35:20 18/04/2009ladies and gentlemen,... perfection
Stratis11:35:20 18/04/2009thats amazing
jwade11:35:42 18/04/2009Pika can re-roll all day. The streak is over.
Stratis11:36:13 18/04/2009absolutely
TXDERBY11:36:28 18/04/2009PU beats rubber?
TommyK11:36:44 18/04/2009destroys it
TommyK11:37:13 18/04/2009the White magic wins the day
TXDERBY11:37:19 18/04/2009and I was soo looking at picking up rubber chunks at next years race -_o
TommyK11:37:54 18/04/2009why would Pika re-roll?
jwade11:38:07 18/04/2009stubbornness
TommyK11:38:09 18/04/2009bad decision
Liz S11:38:13 18/04/2009Pika should just be thankful they are in 2nd and not risk it.
Stratis11:38:15 18/04/2009not worth it
jwade11:38:25 18/04/20092nd is of no value to Pika.
stoger11:38:34 18/04/2009james remembers...
Stratis11:38:37 18/04/2009if their first time was a 2:03.6 or something, then sure....but it wasnt
Christian J11:38:41 18/04/2009Is an SDC 1-2 better for them?
TommyK11:38:41 18/04/2009they might be thinking that the times are unooficial and they want more space betweenthem and SDC B
jwade11:38:42 18/04/2009There were lots of tears in '01.
TXDERBY11:38:44 18/04/2009If Pika spins they would forfit second place
bug joins Race talk
Stratis11:39:55 18/04/2009and not *all* of the tears were Lauren's...
jwade11:39:58 18/04/2009At least they'll go down swinging
alex keene11:40:08 18/04/2009yeah, i can't see pika taking this re-roll... but ill take SDC 1-2
TommyK11:40:18 18/04/20092nd is the first loser
TommyK11:40:29 18/04/2009bug quit (timeout)
jwade11:40:29 18/04/2009Congrats, Alex. It is well deserved.
TXDERBY11:40:47 18/04/2009must be the wheel covers :o$
TommyK11:41:21 18/04/2009any predictions on Pika's time?
jwade11:41:33 18/04/20092:10
splayer11:41:43 18/04/2009slower than their current time
john11:41:50 18/04/20092:05
alex keene11:41:51 18/04/2009haha... well id love to take a lot of credit, but can't take too much as an alum.. did help with some of malice's build though...
Stratis11:42:15 18/04/2009anyone else remember PiKA taunting Fringe in 2000 about a 4 second gap from 1st to 2nd?
alex keene11:42:15 18/04/2009i'm going slower than their current time... no prediction beyond that
TXDERBY11:42:16 18/04/2009http://cmubuggy.org/Forum/gallery2.php?g2_itemId=1837 ^-)
jwade11:42:53 18/04/2009Yes, I think I do remember that Stratis
alex keene11:43:43 18/04/2009fringe A reroll?
splayer11:43:50 18/04/2009yup
alex keene11:43:53 18/04/2009i understand why they want it.. but why are they taking it?
mengo7611:43:58 18/04/2009i called it! lol
TXDERBY11:43:58 18/04/2009Why?
splayer11:44:10 18/04/2009cutting things really close to noon
mengo7611:44:12 18/04/2009starting gun malfunction
jwade11:44:15 18/04/2009Logic goes out the window a bit at the end of raceday
TommyK11:44:30 18/04/2009We do have a 6 place trpohy now
TXDERBY11:44:32 18/04/2009both teams should get a re-roll then
TommyK11:44:38 18/04/2009its not very big though
TommyK11:44:48 18/04/2009and our best time should be closer to a 2:07
Stratis11:44:55 18/04/2009maybe both did, but i doubt SDC B would take it
TommyK11:45:20 18/04/2009at the very least this will serve as an example of hat re-rolls result in
TommyK11:45:36 18/04/2009can you drop time with a re-roll?
jwade11:45:39 18/04/2009yes, a good learning experience for all
TommyK11:45:48 18/04/2009will you go slower?
Stratis11:45:56 18/04/2009pika
Stratis11:46:12 18/04/2009pika's pushers have much more recovery than Fringe...they could benefit more
TommyK11:46:34 18/04/2009buffing the wheels
nhd11:47:29 18/04/2009why not reroll them together?
splayer11:47:38 18/04/2009not allowed
splayer11:47:47 18/04/2009rerolls must be solo
mengo7611:47:49 18/04/2009would be great to see tho! :P
jwade11:47:52 18/04/2009that would be begging for re-rerolls
splayer11:47:53 18/04/2009yeah
splayer11:47:54 18/04/2009:)
alex keene11:48:26 18/04/2009they dont look good at all
mengo7611:49:13 18/04/2009not bad, not good
jwade11:49:19 18/04/2009well that was a little better
mengo7611:49:20 18/04/2009(the reroll decision i mean)
TommyK11:49:38 18/04/2009so re-rolls can be good ...
Christian J11:50:02 18/04/2009Indeed.
jwade11:50:29 18/04/2009my worldview is shattered
alex keene11:50:40 18/04/2009haha
mengo7611:50:48 18/04/2009i guess it would be a good decision if fringe's reroll is sub 2:08
mengo7611:50:58 18/04/2009for them to keep the 2nd place
Christian J11:51:14 18/04/2009I'm with you James.
jwade11:51:40 18/04/2009In light of new information, I predict Fringe's reroll at 1:59
mengo7611:51:47 18/04/2009lol
mengo7611:51:57 18/04/2009yes that comment was great motivation
nhd11:52:22 18/04/20091:59 is closing in on the SAE race cars...
jwade11:52:44 18/04/2009We better be, it'll be past noon by the time we start.
Stratis11:53:12 18/04/2009maybe the pushers will run faster if literally being chased by the cops to get off the roads...
Liz S11:53:21 18/04/2009lol
Liz S11:53:40 18/04/2009i think that might be violating the pacing rule.
alex keene11:53:46 18/04/2009bad gun?
mengo7611:54:09 18/04/2009gun was too fast!!
Stratis11:54:41 18/04/2009the starter can never keep a steady pace in the countdown to the gun
jwade11:54:53 18/04/2009I thought that was on purpose
mengo7611:54:59 18/04/2009i know but that was a bit too much, at least seemed the pusher didnt expect it that fast
alex keene11:55:01 18/04/2009it's not supposed to be steady
alex keene11:55:07 18/04/2009it's in the rules it is not steady
jwade11:55:49 18/04/2009pretty close to last time.
jwade11:56:07 18/04/2009Okay. My worldview is really shattered now
Christian J11:56:10 18/04/2009omg!
mengo7611:56:15 18/04/2009wooooooo!
Stratis11:56:18 18/04/2009wow
splayer11:56:22 18/04/2009oh man
TommyK11:56:23 18/04/2009yeah brothe
jwade11:56:25 18/04/2009I'm clearly not cut out for this anymore.

nhd11:58:14 18/04/2009well done
jwade11:58:32 18/04/2009If anyone's wondering, Fringe does value 2nd place.
Christian J11:58:37 18/04/2009HOT CRAP ON BISCUIT!
