Trust me, you'll be better off micro-analyzing your test setup then you will the maths. If you're using dial indicators to measure displacement, are they calibrated? What is the measurement error?...

Anyone know what happened to San Jose State??? The announcer on the live feed didn't mention a thing!
Anyone know why the audio and/or video stream isn't up and running? <STRIKE>Also, the live timing isn't updating at all either.</STRIKE>
EDIT: NVM, Live timing is up now.
Nice, that's exactly what I wanted to see! Thanks.
Hot diggity! I hope you guys get a video feed up and running. I know my afternoon is wasted if that happens.
Any word on why the timing system is all screwy? They're adding the two fastest accel...
Don't underestimate noise. I have seen countless teams failing noise. Mostly because their measurements deviated heavily from the official meter. Make sure to have a plan B and C for noise....
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there an additional scaling factor added according to each design bay? I remember hearing from a design judge a few years back that that they scale the scores...

I was surprised to see so many front runners drop out during (and even before) endurance. The list includes no less than GFR, Kansas, Missouri S&T, Michigan-Ann Arbor, Wisconsin, RIT, Maryland, and...
You are the best-est. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

If anyone has a better pic of the last accel sheet let me...
They've been posted just not to the webs. http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif I'm currently getting them all from our team manager so i'll be updating the spreadsheet as I get...
Now imagine having worked on the car throughout the year, but not able to go to comp. That's me. I'm dying here!
I mean, each school has to have a team contact at FSAEOnline for rules questions,...
FSTotal posted the top sheet of the Accel scores on their Facebook. I know the scores have been posted, since some are already posting about it, but none that I've seen have posted pics yet.
I think what Charles meant to say was that it is very hard to get the full 100 points in the cost event. Unlike every other event, the first place team does not get the maximum points. In order to...
Charles,
If you are basing that off of my spreadsheet, then it's not their final score. For each of the 3 static events, the scores of the top teams (3 in Cost and Presentation, and 9 in Design)...
So far I've updated most Static events (except 82 on in cost), pending the order of the top teams in each event. I've also added the first page of the Accel scores.
Here's the link to the score...
Did a little data collection on the Design Finalists.
Of the 9 finalists:
- 6 have full aero packages.
- 7 have at least some aero.
- 3.5 have monocoques. *
Keep the pictures coming Randy! I always count on you.
P.S. Do you get to cruise around in the new Stingray at all this year?
Yes Tobias audio streaming. I know FSG does video streaming, or has done it in the past, but its alot to ask for the organizers to do it here. I believe it was SCCA that provided the audio stream...
Anyone remember about when the static event scores start coming in? I know they usually post em on Friday, but I forget how late in the day they usually finish em. I'm just dying to start updating...

And Wisconsin's single is a KTM550 bored and stroked to 605cc which they were able to pull nearly 80hp out of last year. So when you consider they're running full aero, with 80hp at their disposal,...
Congrats. It seems to me like a lot of teams wer able to make it through tech today. Anyone hear how many actually did make it through? We were able to get through today too. First time in a while...
ETS weighed in at 327 via their Twitter. That's impressive. I'm still impressed with GFR and Wisconsin though, with full Aero and still under 350 lbs.
Well, day one is over! Of the very limited sample size I've seen, UW-Madison looks to be the lightest so far at 344 lbs. Can anyone beat that? As more teams finish through tech tomorrow, I hope more...
