Team JAG almost broke 200MPH in Munich

[RaceMechaniX]

I received word from Joerg that there were some excellent SAW passes made at the Munich Olympic rowing facility.

Joerg was able to up his 8 cell hydro record to a 2 -way average of 314.426KPH which is right at 195MPH.
Arne Hold also upped his 6 cell hydro record to a 2-way average of 284KPH which is 176.5MPH
Andreas Lehner set a new 1 cell cat record at 133KPH or 82.64MPH. That's 1 cell with no paralleling. Andy was using a special team JAG ESC good for 1000+A.

That's all I have heard since Saturday. Many pics and videos posted on Facebook.

You know Joerg & co. is staying up late to hit 200+ mph!

Well done guys

imagine : 195mph = 286 fps - don't blink

Thanks Klaus, I did not know Andy had two cats, one for L1 and one for L2.

Hello Tyler,

I was not live in Munich but I think it is about 1 catamaran for both classes.
In Germany class L1: 1S1P
In Germany class L2: 2S1P or 1S2P, Andy drove in this class with 1S2P

He only needs to change the lipos to be able to drive in different classes.

In America Andy would start with this catamaran in the 1 cell class with 1S2P.

are there any pics of these other riggers and the cat hull ?

[carphunter]

I have no pictures. Soon there will probably be a few pictures on the official SAW site.

The cat from Andy is a "Psychocat evo" from Dr. Psycho alias Ralf.
The Rigger are all self-made.

Hello Klaus, looking at the result sheets it shows too different boats for L1 and L2. Joerg also confirmed this.
The Physocat evo and microdrifter.

There are pics on facebook.

Hello Tyler,

the confusion comes from the different rules (Germany / USA).
"Quote Tyler" Andreas Lehner set a new 1 cell cat record at 133KPH or 82.64MPH. That's 1 cell with no paralleling.
In the states is this a new record for 1S2P (1 cell class) not in Germany.
In Germany is 1S2P the L2 class and the record is by 144,006 km/h avg from Roger.

Andys old boot "Microdrifter" is a 1 cell (1S1P) catamaran (Germany rules).
The new boot "Psychocat evo" is a 2 cell (1S2P) catamaran (Germany rules).
No rating as only one straight line for the Microdrifter 1 cell catamaran (1 pass with 98,007 km/h).
The 2 cell catamaran reached 133,607 km/h avg, in the states is it a 1 cell (1S2P) catamaran.

I hope you understand me, my english is very bad.

Tyler, have you "Links" for me (Facebook).

greetings
Klaus

in the states is it a 1 cell (1S2P) catamaran.

Just for the sake of accuracy, our rules actually don't limit paralleling... So technically it's 1S, 10,000mAh maximum. Paralleling would be unlimited, but probably not practical to push.

My 81.6mph SAW Hydro 1-Cell record was set using a single 5000mAh cell, which would fit into the German L1 rules easily.

Would love for us all to meet up at one of these events again. NICE WORK, Guys!!
