One point that people have confused/missed before: the "-H" term, that is height from roll center to CoG. It's most likely a "negative" distance, thus the numerator becomes positive when you...

For us non-twitter types, there is an official university blog that should have regular updates from S&T:

Wow, Oregon has a really light car:

Like I said, really light:

Are you guys going to make me join twitter to get any competition updates?
So far, the most info I've seen was from the Waltman text.
C'mon, let's see some pics and trash talk.
That's all you needed to say. Name a date.
Thanks. Unfortunately, I can't make it to West this year due to a lack of vacation time http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
Oh yeah! Congrats S&T bringing home the trophy! Go get 'em in Michigan!
What are the variances you are talking about?
+1 for Conor and rjwoods
The only time there is going to be an induced yaw torque from differing torsional spring rates of axles is the first nth of a second of an acceleration launch until the...
The Honda Foreman is a clutch pack or cam & pawl, depending on which year you're talking about (at least up to about 2005, not sure between then and now).
You probably heard somebody say the...
Was that possibly South Dakota State?
That's obviously because Waltman and I are pretty much the best tech inspectors ever. j/k
I was definitely a fan of the "take a number" process, it was easy for us as inspectors, and then the...
Yeah, it would be nice to see some better consistency on DQ's. I wasn't in Detroit, but it sounds like they were pretty harsh on DQ's there, whereas the California incidents were much more...
I don't think you guys were in the first run group, I would have remembered that one for sure!
WWU hitting Toledo was pretty exciting, that's the first contact I've seen on track. It never posed...
I took notes during the first endurance run (the fast group before lunch), but didn't take notes for the rest- had to go catch a flight home.
Missouri S&T kicks off the endurance event by scaring...
James Waltman and I just rolled into town, we'll be doing tech inspection again. Also, we will be walking around quite a bit talking to teams, taking pics, etc.
I think we're all still in denial that we ever used it in the first place.
Sorry I don't have any useful advice either, other than to avoid Solid Edge.
So I guess the new chancellor was right- a name change would be a change for the better. j/k
Congrats MST! And of course to Wisconsin-Madison.
Bring on the pics.
I thought this was going to be about tax returns. Apparently I've been out of school too long http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
Of course, back then, it was due March 1st, I...
We used one when I was in school in '04. Basically, the experiment was to chop the oil pan as thin as possible while leaving the engine as a wet sump. Needless to say, we found that limit, and the...
Got pics of your new "endurance" racer?
