Another chainsaw dyno...

[wcorey]

These classes are every 9.99cc

20 - 29.99 etc

That is where they will fall.

Uh oh, class wars, the endless discussion over whether a 79cc saw should fairly compete against 70cc's or 80cc's. Etc., etc.
I guess the line has to be drawn somewhere...

 

[Red97]

Hmm

Guess i may need to alter that.

I can still see dozens of arguments and exclusions in that.
It means 365's compete against 60cc's, 357's go up against 346's and on and on...
In racing it means the majority of saw models are rendered non competitive.

To be inclusive and invite a variety of competition you're going to have to get very creative.

Bottom line though, you can't win here...

And you can still have model specific wars! That’s fair!

Will never satisfy everyone. Just the nature of the beast.

That will change your leader board just a little won't it? Deets hybrid at 76.5cc comes in the 69-78cc class while the XS 500i of Dalls at 79.2cc comes into the class above, am I thinking correctly? Also, what cc is the stroker 661c? Isn't that 99cc?

It would, just have to settle on classes.

Just a simple way to keep them all together. And a target for others to shoot for.

Not really a race, just a place holder.

 

[Armbru84]

Jake is stout..
The Mutt "sometimes" edges him out in the 5 cube class though.
Just depends on the day..
Levi's alky 5 cube wipes the floor with both of em..

you coming to race Labor Day weekend in MI? races 3 days in a row with a lot of really fast guys. test out that 5 cube....you and Clint can ride together.

Don’t matter on the classes Joe, however you want em. You make em, we’ll fill em up.

I like it, but I wonder if there should be a 99-115, then 116+ to kick the biggest saws into a class of their own, though the 99-115 might not have many contenders.

Those first two units of power look right, but 12HP is not 5.9kW or 8.0ps. 7.9-8.0HP would make more sense for a 118cc.

 

[Red97]

What a monster...



Had a typo on the stock run. 1.14hp to 1.46. 28% gain..

And the new mark to beat on the 20cc class

So now it is making stock HP according to the book right? I was surprised to see 1.14HP stock and not nearly 2HP ported. I wonder how accurate the dyno is with low power numbers. I know it shouldn't be a problem, but some devices aren't so accurate towards the bottom of their range.

Looking back at one of my videos I found a ported 2511t to cut 25% slower than a stock 355t which have supposedly 2-2.2HP, so I guess 1.5HP is on par.

Unless Matt has softer lips than Carrie, she will be riding shotgun

Who's got a Dolmar PS-311TH (or Makita/Maruyama equivalent) to dyno it?
I am curious how 30cc would compare to 20cc.

I like the little 20cc dyno test.
