We started pre-publishing the tracks for the Lincoln Comp pretty much right out of the gate. I think the benefits far outweigh what you are seeing as a negative with the funding advantage point....

Just in case anyone missed the Facebook posts of the 2015 Lincoln AutoX and Enduro track videos.

K,
Good catch, you can find the 2015 maps I posted here
I'll let SAE know they need to change it.

The grid squares are 25' x 25'. I'll see what I can do about putting the radii for each corner on the pdf.
Here are the course maps for FSAE Lincoln 2015. We are running a little behind on getting these out this year, but I hope you all enjoy!
I would recommend using the files from the link, because...
Swift,
I believe the distances were ~2795' for AutoX and ~4890' for Enduro.
Dr. Ill, you are correct, this was a full size.....miata. I guess the idea that it could be mistaken as a corvette, will be taken as a compliment. This course was faster than some, but the average...
A couple more videos
AutoX course high speed

Here is a low speed video of the AutoX course.

Here is a revised map for Lincoln. Our straight in AutoX was too long, the Endurance straight length limit had been used.

Let's make an analogy.
Let's look at FSAE & FS as just another educational class like all the other ones we take at university. Most of the time we will get a course outline at the very beginning...
Paul,
That enter/exit area of the course is already very wide, and the extra exit lane was exactly what I was thinking about to help with the speed difference issue. I was thinking we would just...
Claude,
As I mentioned to Z, when we were discussing the idea of a straight-hairpin-straight, I was envisioning a high speed straight into a very small radius. In this instance I think the 9m OD...

Z,
I'm not sure what your definition of a hairpin is, but I'd say there is a hairpin on the lower right of Autocross. The radius obviously isn't as small as you would prefer, but I...
MCoach,
You've figured us out. Copying an MX track layout is just the first step in my dream of creating SAE Formula Baja.(aka Baja chassis and suspension, with Formula engines) Next comes the...
Not really any concerns with the start. For scale each grid square is 25'x25', and the cars are actually launched a little more than 25' to the right of the driving line. Of course the starter only...
I've linked to the thread with this years course maps for FSAE Lincoln

The course maps for FSAE Lincoln 2014 are complete. For some reason the layers don't seem to be working correctly on all files, but I'll try to get that resolved. Also, disregard the corner speed and...
A recruiter asked me if I knew anyone who might be interested in the position, so I thought I'd throw it up here for anyone who's looking. It sounds like you would be developing complete...
;)..............................
These are the issues, I've noticed after a few years doing tech inspections. There are always a few teams that are tripped up during tech with these issues, and end up having to plead their case to...
I think this is the Spain course Claude was mentioning earlier.

Not too shabby, you can certainly pick out a couple of the 270*+tight radius reverse...
jlangholzj,
Just by having been to an autocross before, that makes you an 'experienced driver' compared to probably a 1/3 or 1/2 of the field who has never been to an SCCA event. Reading a SCCA...
Axel, & MCoach
Unless the distance change is severe, I don't think decreasing distance slaloms offer as much for testing vehicle dynamics, as they do for testing drivers. If driven well the change...
