NJ Lidar Testing Meet 8/16

[modsl55amg]

Glad you were able to come down and bring Joe Bruno with you. We posted results in Post # 1 and also in Post # 72

Tom/BRD, Thank you for the extremely quick posting of today's test results. I am sure both Joe and I learned a lot from today's activity. I am sure the knowledge and experience today will help Joe (Joe Bruno Designs) provide excellent installation services of ALP systems to his customers and forum members.

Tom, would you happen to know the approximate distance from the finish line/equipment to the starting line where cars entered the street from the parking lot?

Also, regarding the test results, would you know which of my autos ( SL55 AMG or E55 AMG) was the modsl55amg #1 and which was the modsl55amg#2?
This information will be vital in determining how or what must be adjusted on one auto or the other. I seem to think, from my informal notes, that the SL55 was the modsl55amg#1, and that the E55 was the modsl55amg#2.

Finally, if modsl55amg#1 was the SL55 AMG, there were two runs where the Dragon Eye Lidar and the Dragon Eye Compact obtained PHL PTs at over 1,500 feet, which is slightly more than 1/4 mile from the finish line. The SL55 has dual ALPs in the front grill, at the same level as the headlights. Without seeing the car as you answer this (although there are pictures of the car in the Show Your Install Thread), would you feel that the ALP sensor, on the passenger side of the front grill, be adjusted/angled ever so slightly toward the driver's side, in order to possibly avoid the PT at over 1,500 feet. Or do you think I should wait for the front/center ALP sensor to become available, and have it installed to possibly avoid the PHL PT? Of course, no matter which action I may take, testing will either prove or disprove the action taken was actually accurate in avoiding a Dragon Eye PT. Thanks in advance for your advice, when you have the time.

I can spend sometime with you going over the systems in the next few days but I am swamped with catching up and getting weekend orders processed to get them out tomorrow so I cant do it now. Joe was driving the #2 from our notes so that should answer which vehicle was which. Course was around 1700ft.

OK, Thanks for now TOM. I'll contact you later in the week to see if/when I may have a couple of minutes of your valuable time, and see if you can possibly help.

Had a good time today. Nice to put faces to forum names. Thanks to everyone who made it out!

i just woke up from a long nap after todays meet and i wanted to give special thanks to BRD, RedRocket, and RadarRob for taking their time to test the members. Also it was great to see some old faces and meet some new ones too. There were some really nice cars today and a whole variety of setups so it was very interesting to test. Thanks again to everyone that participated and made it for a fun day!

Just wanted to say thank you guys. Its my second meet and first test. Next time I'll bring the strippers, and hopefully keep RadarRob around all day. ;-)

I also want to add my voice to the many "thank you" comments here. Thank you Tom/BRD, RedRocket, Radarrob and everyone lese that was helping out with the coordination of this event. Was nice meeting everyone.
I have some more work to do on the wagon and am sure will do better the next time around.

Thanks Tom and Rocket for stepping up. I'm sorry I had to bail at the last minutes guys. We got word late Saturday afternoon that my wife's grandfather had passed away. She was really upset and asked me to stay home to watch our son as she paid her respects to her grandfather one last time before he was taken away. They also had family things that they needed to get sorted out. Once again, I apologize, but it was out of my control.

[whats up]

I have one question about yesterday's results. Because i had sensors in the wrong ports 1-3 does that make the sensor in port 3 not work at all . And if It was set up right would the result be that much different.
Thank You

The sensors in the wrong ports only affect VPR Guns as is evident in the IPT's you received against the Dragon Guns. The sensors would work normally against standard guns in the wrong ports as long as you are not mixing front and rear ports.
