Orlowski – the man to beat

Last weekend was round six, which was the final round of the Worksop Masters series 2022-23, the fantastic track crew once again did not disappoint, there was a brilliant layout which would prove to be a challenge for many, it had a large table top as usual and many features.
The same format as at previous rounds was the order of the day, 1 timed practice followed by 4 qualifying runs and finishing off with 1 round of finals for all.
As this was the last round of the series, there were still many overall championship positions to be decided.
4wd was first up as usual, it was total domination by Michal Orlowski as he took TQ in all 4 rounds, therefore he would line up on pole position for the final. Edward Callan would line up 2nd and Jonathan Skidmore 3rd.
The CAT L1R proving to be very good with 7 of them making the A final.

Final result of 4WD

1st Michal Orlowski – Schumacher
2nd Jonathan Skidmore – Xray
3rd Edward Callan – Schumacher
4th Ben Smith – Schumacher
5th Lee Martin – Schumacher
6th Luke Holdsworth – Schumacher
7th Josh Holdsworth – Schumacher
8th Ben Simpson – Yokomo
9th Matthew Thompson – Schumacher
10th William Skidmore – Xray

In 2WD qualifying, Jonathan Skidmore would take TQ in the first 2 rounds of qualifying, but then Michal Orlowski took TQ in rounds 3 and 4 with a faster time, so would take pole position. Therefore Jonathan Skidmore would be 2nd on the grid and Ben Smith would line up 3rd.

Final result of 2WD

1st Michal Orlowski – Schumacher
2nd Jonathan Skidmore – Xray
3rd Ben Smith – Schumacher
4th Edward Callan – Schumacher
5th Will Skidmore – Xray
6th Lee Martin – Schumacher
7th Luke Holdsworth – Schumacher
8th Ben Simpson – Yokomo
9th Matthew Thompson – Schumacher
10th Josh Holdsworth – Schumacher

So this concludes what has been another awesome series at Worksop.

The Championship positions were decided and trophy boards were given to the top 20 drivers in each class.

The top 3 in each class were:

2WD
1st – Jonathan Skidmore
2nd – Tommy Hall
3rd – William Skidmore

4WD
1st – Jonathan Skidmore
2nd – Edward Callan
3rd – Ben Smith

A huge thank you to each and every person that has helped at this series, we shall be back to do it all again when the new series starts in October.

Awesomatix A800R Touring Car

0

After a teaser posting some months ago, Awesomatix now presents the new A800R with all details to the public. The car has already won the ETS final race in the Awesomatix Pro Stock class, the TITC race in the Open Brushless class, and the AOC in Australia in the Modified class. The A800R seems to be a real winning machine out of the box and here you find all the information from the official Awesomatix press release:

Awesomatix A800R – born to win!

The A800R now features a new damper system which includes a Linear and Progressive damping option.

These are also quickly adjustable from the underside of the chassis without sliding the dampers in or out.

Another advantage is that the dampening and the spring are entirely separate on the A800R; Changing the damper rate doesn’t affect spring rate anymore.
The car features a super short chassis to reduce chassis rub to increase corner speed. New suspension arms were needed to keep the same wheelbase in combination with the shorter chassis.
Additionally, we angled the lower bumper to reduce chassis rub under braking action, while adding a new upper bumper plate which is an active part of front flex.
With the new damper design comes a new bulkhead design and upper arm holders for improved geometry.
We included the all new ST112 Centering Screws (same as for D3 dampers mounts) which ensure a perfect and straight build to key the dampers and bulkheads to the lower chassis.
This car features a new and ultra-light, reliable rear body holder, in addition to new sway bars which were needed because of the new suspension design.
We also include new battery holders, but the motor mount and topdeck system remain unchanged. The car includes the latest version AM177-2 motormount. The one-piece C27MMX topdeck also remains compatible. 

There are no changes to the well-known and reliable drivetrain with spool, IFJ, IRJ, GD2B-R and BEL351 belts.
As we have come to expect from Awesomatix, the Steering unit remains bulletproof with the AM24-20 and the latest version AM180EVO steering rack (which is the same as the most recent version on the A800MMX car).

The First kits are on the way to the Distributors and Dealers around the Globe!

Special Features of the A800R versions:

– newly designed  C01B-RC 2.2mm Carbon Lower deck for A800RC kit

Software Information for Awesomatix Pro Stock class

0

Dear ETS Family,

this information is for all ProStock drivers, and everybody who wants to step into the Awesomatix ProStock class with the 17.5T Motor in the next ETS season. As we mentioned in our latest video, the software is not 100% ready while we are still working on some modes and values.

But if you already like to go testing, you can use the software which was in use in the 17.5 Stock class in the last season. We will use the same RPM Limiter, just with the longer gearing of 3,8. So you can already practice and test for the ProStock class with this software. The only modifications we will make for the start of the season is to reduce the adjustability of some other modes like PWM frequency or Punch. Here we will also go for a more easy speedo setup where racers don`t have to try too many different ESC setting options!

Just click onto the link below and navigate all the way down to the download section on the product page. There you can Download the 17.5T Software V1.4 from the last ETS Season for your practice sessions.
Keep in mind that this “old V1.4” Software is NOT the final version for the new season! As soon as the new software is completeley ready, we will provide it for downloading there as well!

If you have missed out on our video about the actual testing stages of the softwares and motors (also 21.5T), just watch the video again and update yourself. Information and software for the 21.5 classes will be available soon as well!
