Eric's cam challenge
You look for the trends, there is a somewhat pattern to it's seemingly randomness but in the end of the day its only one test for one engine. But does show there's probably many different ways to get there (similar results).
He doesn’t get it because his hero didn’t win, place or show.
If he did he’d be blowing DV silly about how great he is.
I thought Winegartner laid out what the test was all about.
And then you had clowns like Mike Jones who bad mouthed the test and everything else but didn’t send in a cam because he knew he’d suck.
And he’s saying the same **** the DV defenders are saying.
The upshot of the testing was because he was tired of calling 10 different cam companies and getting 15 different answers.
The reason he didn’t degree the cams is because most guys STILL don’t degree the cam. They throw it in and line up the dots and send it. His testing reflected that group of end users.
Same thing with tuning. The vast majority of guys don’t even start out on the dyno. They just gut it out.
You can do it but it takes 10 times longer. Maybe more if you have an inconsistent driver.
So it’s dot to dot, leave the tuning alone and see what happens.
To claim his testing is invalid and/or pointless is ignorant. It makes perfect sense when you think about it.
Then you have the “wine and cheese” crowd, the long haired dope smokers and the nattering naybobs who pick apart ANY testing not done with a multi-million dollar setup because any and all testing is invalid.
That just makes me laugh. I get that if you need to meter fuel with an eye dropper or you need to be working out to the fourth digit you need that type of accuracy.
I still argue that that’s still mostly mental masturbation unless they are duplicating the exact conditions in the dyno room to the track.
And, that information only matches IF the track weather is exactly like it was in the dyno cell.
I have watched the testing more to watch the people with no skin in the game *****, whine and snivel about how it’s all wrong and proves nothing.
That’s what losers say when they get beat.
