David Datzer is starting the 2024 season as he left off in 2023. The multiple IRRC winner was able to take part in the road race in Stare Mesto in the Czech Republic for the first time and took victory straight away. But that's not all - he also improved the previous lap record with a time of 1:31.509. In addition to Datzii, who we have been supporting for years now, 2 other riders with our electronic solutions were also at the start. Jiry Petrla achieved 3rd place with his BMW S1000RR 2022, directly behind him in P4 was the third place finisher of the Landshaag 2024 hill climb (Stock 1000) - Thomas Altendorfer on his BMW S1000RR 2015.
We congratulate everyone on their sporting performance and look forward to the IRRC season and the joint further development of our Race Mapping PRO with Datzii!
The 2024 IDM season kicked off last weekend at the Sachsenring. This year, we are supporting 4 riders in the Pro Superstock 1000, continuing our development partnership with Marc Neumann and his Neumann Racing Team. In addition, with Max Riebe, Luca Felde and Maurice Mouton, 3 other riders rely on our electronic solutions for their BMW M1000RR and S1000RR. Unfortunately, Luca was unable to make the trip due to a defect in his transporter. After we were able to help Maurice sort out a technical problem on the bike, all 3 riders had a lot of fun with their BMWs and were spared crashes and defects. We were again able to gain valuable experience for the further development of our Race Mapping PRO and are happy with Marc about his first podium in the first race of the season. Congratulations again to everyone for the great sporting performance in what has become a very high-caliber class.

Just in time for the start of the season, we were particularly pleased to receive feedback on our Dynamic Mapping for the BMW R nineT models from 2021. Many thanks Louis!
"Even the first few meters out of the yard felt different. When we left the village, the joy really started. All that talk of "...couldn't get the grin off my face under the helmet..." is TRUE! A more spontaneous throttle response and now a really noticeable difference between "Road" and "Dirt", which is my new "Dynamic". If I read the data on your great website, then this is out of all proportion to what I get from you. A few more horses and Nm, you might think, but numbers don't convey a feeling! My RnineT Urban G/S now rides and sounds like a motorcycle should ride and sound! And then there are the "thrust acoust". What a dry word for so much life. I love the new exhaust rumble! It was the right decision to have the mapping done by you. Many thanks again for the friendly welcome and the professional implementation!

As soon as the Race Mapping PRO V2024 has been released for everyone, further development is already ongoing. True to the motto "the better is the enemy of the good", we are already working on the 2025 version. So we were recently back on the racetrack ourselves with our BMW S1000RR 2022 and 2023. In addition, we also went to Spain in January and February together with Marc Neumann #36.
Here is a video from the Valencia test with rider Marc Neumann #36.
The first race of the AMA Superhoolingan Series took place this year as part of the world-famous Daytona 200 race. The Daytona 200 and the Daytona Bike Week, which takes place at the same time, attract around 300,000 bikers every year. The race track is a high-speed course with banked turns and a very selective infield section. For the second time, we (Rainer on site and Robert from home for the data) were able to be part of the team around Nate Kern and, in addition to the further development of the motorcycle setup and electronics of his BMW R nineT, also take on the role of crew chief. After a promising P1 session, Nate crashed badly on his own oil in Q1 through no fault of his own. Root cause was a contact with another with another rider a few corners before where the right valve cover got damaged. Although the doctors gave him the green light to continue taking part in the remaining outings, the bike and rider were unfortunately no longer at 100%. So the time from one lap in Q1 was only enough for P9 because the bike unfortunately still showed problems in Q2 that could be traced back to the crash. R1 was again unfortunate with a flat on the front wheel which fortunately was noticed during the red phase. In the end it was enough for P9 in R2 and an impressive top speed of 170mph / 276kmh in R1 (unofficial because before the restart).
A personal thanks to Kent Soignier (GMD COMPUTRACK ATLANTA), Paul Wilson (Paul's Garage LLC), Tom, Gina and Nate for the great cooperation and hospitality we experienced. We look forward to seeing you again!
