Kevin took another double with over the weekend at Hockenheim making it '6 in a row'.

Kevin's skill coupled with a well prepared Yamaha R6 have moved him to an almost unassailable lead in the IDM Supersport championship needing only a few points from two races at the last round in Lausitz to take the championship.

Unfortunately I was not with the team last weekend as I was having fun on my own Ducati 749 in Jerez, but I was swapping Email data with the team along with revised maps to help them get the most out of the Magneti Marelli SRT system on the bike.

AIM HD camera in action at Jerez

23/9/2013

This AIM Smarty Cam HD  video was taken on my Ducati 749 development bike at Jerez recently. Using an AIM ECU-Bridge I linked the camera to the CAN bus of the Nemesis TCS system making it easy to see throttle, tyre slip and of course TCS response.

I am not  a race rider but my modest track day skills still enable me to get on the throttle with confidence knowing that the TCS is there to sort out any problems. It is also interesting to see the amount of low level TCS activation feeding in the power in a manageable way, avoiding the need to fix more significant slides after they have happened. I can honestly say that I never felt any of the TCS activation seen in this video.

The all new AIM Smarty Cam HD was delivered this week for us to install on our Ducati 749 test bike. This version is still pre-release but the setup using the Beta version of software was problem free even with the added complexity of driving CAN data from the Nemesis TCS system.

A full test will be carried out at Jerez later this month and I will upload video files as soon as I get back.

This product is not yet available from our web shop but we do expect customer versions to be available very early in October. Pricing is expected to be £725+vat for the Camera unit and an extra £125+vat for the optional GPS module which enables lap timing and circuit mapping to be embedded into the video.

IDM Supersport  - Kevin Wahr extends his championship lead at Sachenring taking his 4th win in a row.

IDM – Supersport  rider Kevin Wahr extends his championship lead at Sachenring taking his 4th win in a row.

During 2013 the SKM / Kraus Racing prepared Yamaha R6 has steadily moved up the championship points table, and now with some on-track electronic programming from Bike Sport Developments and the latest Magneti Marelli software in his SRT ECU he has stormed into the lead by 11 points with 2 race weekends left.


 “I first worked with Kevin at Zolder earlier this year and could see he had great potential.  He just needed a bit of help from the bike to make his extreme braking style possible, so plans were made following a successful double win at Sleiz to take it to the next level using the Bike Sport Developments licensed version of the SRT software and my help to program it on-track"  Mick Boasman

The results at Sachenring speak for themselves being the fastest in every qualifying session by over 1 second, and more impressively every one of his laps in race 1 would have given him pole position in qualifying. The huge gap to second place in each race was almost inevitable.

In Kevin’s words the team had achieved "electronic and bike setup perfection…."
