How we standardise the Testing
How we standardise the Testing
To ensure every car gets a fair shot we will run the car the same way
We ensure all vehicles are freshly reset in Beam.NG before each test
All ESC settings are switched off, except when car is undriveable
Driver assists are switched off in Beam.NG for over/understeer
Cars are run in default if manual differential setting (Hi-2)
Cars will be rev launched to give them the best shot
We record the best scores aver a maximum 7 runs
We only ever enter RAW input data into our calculator
