KezR33 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 That may be true, but that doesn't stop people from getting WDs as many have! Actually this DECA was pretty good in terms of map ease, Charles didn't have to help much but it was nice to confirm I was doing the directions right. Look forward to some complex ones next time, will make the navigator more useful! Just make sure you have a good navigator! One of my WD was because Brad yelled at me "2 CONES RIGHT!" By the time I worked out wtf it meant I'd already gone the wrong way.

NickR33 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 navigators are next to useless on the pan.... unless you know the route off by heart your pretty much stuffed Russ, Matt and Ryan going down to the wire in the last Deca... better make sure those cars are reliable boys! eg. don't bring a GTR in November;) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/332990-the-official-deca-wrap-up-thread/page/7/#findComment-5413656 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGillaZ Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) navigators are next to useless on the pan.... unless you know the route off by heart your pretty much stuffed I don't think that's true, in much the same way that you have a co-pilot in jet sprints, they're only there if you NEED the direction assistance and the directions they give you need to make sense at first call Only issue is when the Navvy 2nd guesses themselves and is being relied on Edited August 24, 2010 by MacGillaZ Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/332990-the-official-deca-wrap-up-thread/page/7/#findComment-5413838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Last time it was heel and toe, now I've gone and inadvertently started a navigator argument hahaha. Just make sure you have a good navigator!One of my WD was because Brad yelled at me "2 CONES RIGHT!" By the time I worked out wtf it meant I'd already gone the wrong way. LOL yer, gotta get ya communication signals downpat before entrusting them to direct you. I reckon pointing at a cone and saying "go to the right/left of it" or "U turn around this" works pretty well, combined with you having a general idea of the map. Next DECA might try it without a navigator for the weight advantage. How'd ya new LSD go this DECA?

Peter89 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 as a navigator, i did save a few ppl from wd but it helps when only a minor part of the layout is forgotten. good day, interesting times. surprised to see john take the rwd mini wang record considering the huge lack of power but i guess that shows, power isn't that important.

Russman Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Overall now not only combines 2WD and AWD competitors but all the point accured by each driver in any car. This sees for a much closer final round. Oi!!! I liked the old one! just coz I don't have a GTR to borrow...

Spent more time spinning out than going the right direction. However it was by far the most fun I've ever had at DECA.
