Re: 2011 Palmetto Reigional *New Location*

It was the most frustrating technical issue we probably have ever faced, this losing full control of the left side drive train. We tried it with DS version 1.05.11.00 and 02.27.11.00, cRio image V28, with no success.

We went through 2 cRios's, Nada, 3 PD boards, 2 sidecars, and all new PWM cables. We never did change out the DB37 pin cable. Always seemed to work tethered in the test field, but not in competition.

Sometimes it would run a while, then give trouble, then recover, almost like a breaker was cycling. So we changed all the breakers.

The only thing we didn't change was the driver.........hmmmmmm..

Congrats to the winners at the Palmetto ..... and the folks that didn't get a formal award too, you are all winners in my book !!
