If only we had a webcam out there. The ustream is awesome, but as my first MIS event to miss since '08 I NEED MORE!

University of Central Florida through tech, just noise and brakes to go.
Weighed in at 468, an all time low.
I really have nothing hat I can add to this, but bravo, for this is probably one of the best first posts I've seen in years.
On that turbo, you should be able to clock the compressor and turbine housings relative to the center section. It should be fairly obvious once you have the unit in hand.
You can mount the turbo...
I have the base CAN protocol for the AIM if that's what you are looking for, although the AIM just reads off the CAN line, doesn't write to it.
PM me if you are interested.
Yes, it also needs to be 1 x .049.
We ran into something similar with our main roll hoop bracing back to the lower and upper side impact members on our frame.
Depends on how many of those tubes are at least 0.049" wall.
Theoretically, yes, it could satisfy the rule.
You have to be kidding me...
READ. THE. RULES.

We had flames last year, mostly because the nonuniform shapes hid the horrible bodywork surface finish as well as...
Haltech over here.
Honestly, go with whichever company that wants to work with you as much as you want to work with them. We've used MoTec, PE, and Haltech with the Haltech my favorite. The user...
The cars look amazing. That also has to be one of the best sounding singles I've ever heard (and I hate singles).
Also, great shifter location, looks super easy to get to.
Just got this gem delivered to me today, already on pg 71 (got it maybe an hour ago and I'm at work).
I love the "A racecar! It's a racecar! That's the coolest thing ever!"
It really is a good company to go through. We had some issues with their response time to some of our questions, but found that calling them was the quickest way to get an answer. Also, can't speak...
It was my understanding that all bracing support structures must be 1"x.049" but all I see is a .75" or .5" tube providing the lowermost triangulation.
Is that one tube at the a-arm hardpoint...
Also, those brake fluid reservoir are not in their final home (or even being used in the final rendition). For that we took a page from Baja's book.
Well, as the electrical lead (and frame designer, go figure), I can say that it indeed does triangulate back to the lower side impact member, well within the rules.
I do however appreciate the...
It's amazing how many parts that belong on racecars come from tired old production cars...
Looks like the KR12 had it's first shakedown test today. About 6 months before the usual time for UCF. It was mostly a suspension test, with many of the final components still needing to be produced...
I've swung from loving explaining the odd reasons we need things (either from dealership parts departments or Autozone/Advance Auto/ect), to hating their mostly inept ability to help find what I...
I missed the discount, but wanted it in hardcover anyway. After reading the first two chapters I realized that I'd really like to have this survive many years to come, and had to get the hardcover.

Realizing that the pneumatic air shifter ram is equally good at shooting small objects across the shop, thereby stopping all work for the next 30 minutes while members play "catch".
Also, the...
