@ Matt:
Curious to know if your car passes the vertical template??
Looks real good, VIR is gonna be pretty interesting I think!
We (Clemson) blew up a motor last Saturday while testing the 09 car for VIR.
We had it swapped out that afternoon but were unable to get it back together for more testing unfortunately.

If you don't mind me asking, what is so special about them that you needed to design them for 4 axis machining?
Just curious.

You will probably change some acceleration sensitivity that the shocks have but I doubt you will notice the difference since you are using MTB shocks..
I will be creating a PDF and a web page for each vehicle that will contain all the pertinent information about the cars. I will send this out to all that have emailed me (sorry for the long wait) as...
The 2007 car is still for sale. It comes as a partial roller. This includes front uprights, front and rear control arms, pushrods/pullrods, and rockers.
We are hoping to get around $5000 for...

What are the rules on drivers? Do we need 4 drivers per car? If we bring two cars can we share drivers?
We'd like to bring 2 cars but I don't think we'll even have 8 people there. Can alumni...
Just wanted to add that a good start for your kinematics analysis could just be a simple CAD program. You can get alot done with just a 2d sketch.

We just finished expanding and organizing our shop after getting a lot more space from the dept (who would've thought that can happen). We are planning on having our chassis and a-arms mostly done...
Will there be any kind of entry fee?
Intense, grueling sessions of manual, slavelike labor.
But seriously, getting the tubes laser cut saves a heap of human capital and opens up feasibility in a lot of side projects, aka we've been...
We were quoted $1500 by providing the proper dxf's.

I'd imagine from his verbage in his orignal post that these guys have done this before and are looking for an alternative supplier. I'd be interested to know about Ti tubing suppliers as well if...
Shoot me an email at wesleyj@clemson.edu or send me a PM.
Thanks,

MST has a similar system that you are talking about. They pretty much have to launch the car full tilt every time they want to move it. We ran a similar clutch setup to Matt's with reasonable...
