FRC circuit section names
Posted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 6:03 pm
Hi Guys,
Racing at FRC is always as hectic as it is fun to do. Sometimes though we all have a de-slotting moment and scream out the standard "TRACK!" call to inform other drivers and marshals of our dilemma. One of the problems though is alerting everyone to exactly where the car is stranded. We have common names for one or two parts of the track, but many others remain unnamed. To this end, this post's objective it to put an end to this problem by naming each section and you all have an opportunity to participate.
Here's a diagram of the track with numbers identifying the corners (in red) and straights (in yellow). On the right of the diagram I've listed the names we already use as well as some pretty poor suggestions for the currently unnamed sections:
So below are pics of each part to remind you of the section in question and give your imagination wings in making suggestions for suitable names (drink a Red Bull first, right JP?
) :
1,2.3
4
20
5
6,21
7
8
9,22,10
11
12,13
14
15,16
17
18
When making suggestions, simply copy the following code into your response then insert your suggestions after the dashes:
OK, so now let's get your imaginations working to come up with decent names.
