@TurnLeft nice new avatar how long is this one going to last?

Think it's just the mouse actually, but it's not that old.

On a different subject, might want to put "Tuner 3 " in the heading, I guess the snow is really getting to you today .
Don't worry about it .

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Why is there an unknown tuner in the duel tuner list ? A secret entrant ?

 

[Otaliema]

Think it's just the mouse actually, but it's not that old.

unless it's a gaming mouse it has a life span of 100k clicks at most. That might sound like a lot but count how many clicks you do in a minute. and you will see that's around 6 months time for the average user.

The tuner will remain unnamed until after the reviews, see if anyone can guess who it is.

I'll give it another day or two, depends if I put my left sock on first.

When do we guess it ? Like now ?

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Yes, I know, does not want his/her name used yet.

After the reviews are in, let's not ruin the fun early.

 

[Otaliema]

Yes, I know, does not want his/her name used yet.

Hmm interesting total amenity. Will have to see if I recognize the tuning style or required driving tricks to get it around fast...

Oh, okay, I already have some names in my mind Keep it in, you dummy

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Questions:

Are the tunes easy to read?

Are the links working for you?

Does having the Tuner # help to identify without confusion?

I'm home today, thanks to this wonderful winter weather, over 6 inches of snow and now rain and ice

Anyway, I will be trying to see if I can get some of these tunes posted. They will be edited so if they look slightly different than what you sent, that is why. Also, not sure how many of them I will be using the tuners notes, see how it goes.

There 11 tunes for The Duel.

I think it's more the ice that has you home the snow, meh unless you live someplace snow is not common then 6 inches is a big deal.
We got 4-9 inches two nights ago. started at midnight was done before I got up at 6. Gonan be gone today though, suppose to be 50F

And great job with the challenge. you too @DolHaus was great fun tuning the car now to see how it goes for testing.

Quit bragging guys, I'm in St. Cloud MN and the only snow is the piles that won't melt, send it this way, we need it.

St Cloud, MN is where the fictional character of Marshall Erikson (HIMYM) comes from.. Pointless bit of knowledge from my many hours of sitting in front of a tele.

You have CSLACR spelled wrong, did you leave yourself with room to add testers should they sing up?

And any thanks for doing this.

All good for me. Can't wait to get started tomorrow.

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Could you put me down as a tester for the dual thanks.

And we have another tester who got missed.

Heh... oops

Corrected.
In the time attack I can addd 2 more with no problems,
The Dual if another tester signs up I will need to expand the listing, that would make it the largest test group we have had.
Expanding the listing. should be in theory easy, I set up the testers to be added quickly but that doesn't mean I did it right

And we have another tester who got missed.

Added both groups as one was not specified in the post so assuming both.

Heh... oops

No worries.
Can you add @Lionheart2113 and @macdog54 to the testers list in the OP please.
