VARIABLE SPEED, RANDOM LANE CHANGE, PACE CARS

Pace Cars are now well into development. The following video shows a pace car at the start of a 50 lap trial, in fact it did about 100 laps before I stopped it.

It’s average lap time was approx. 6.8 sec per lap – Human drivers average approx. 6.4 sec per lap with this car. I have raced against this pace car with a similar car and found it to be very entertaining – because it accelerates down the straights and then randomly changes lanes it is very hard to overtake.

Further work needs to be done, but Pace Cars are looking very promising indeed!
