Some more info on this project.
I wanted to see if I could add a car (or two) to the 6 car SSD framework and it be reverse compatible. Afaik it was tried a while back with mixed results.
I tried adding a byte to the command packet and sure enough my stock SSD car went into analog mode. By the way I have two stock test SSD cars with different behaviours. One car Rev G. will fuss and go analog if the crc byte fails but the other car just works crc or not.
So I tried adding the extra byte in a different way and the Rev G. car just drove normally including lane changes etc. Same with the other test car. Next I coupled the extra
bytes data with the throttle inputs from the test car so that it would be constantly changing and still the test cars drove normally. Interesting....
