We had one chassis powdercoated after the competition was finished and it weighed a little over 5 lbs more than when it was just painted. Flat black spray everything, saves time, money, and weight....

Congratulations to FSAE USB. You guys have worked extermely hard over the past three years and it is paying off. I hope that the dynamic events work out just as well. Great job.

You actually don't require side mirrors if you are able to see 200 degrees I think. In 2003 we tested this out and found that 200 degrees actually isn't very hard to achieve. With the amount of...
In 2001 we had a simalar problem with our engine in Detroit. I wasn't there, but I guess they spent the whole night changing the engine out to race in endurance only to have the diff fail. Fun...
Thanks Dan and Charlie,
I was under the impression that they were held.
Brent
Nope, the spots were held in 2004 for the top 10 teams. Notice that 9/10 of these teams are registered and their registration number is identical to their place in 2003. that is because the spots...
B Dana,
If you finished 7th how did you miss registration as the top ten teams have spots held for them.
Brent
I always included it with the engine.
Good job starting so early.

Ok, I'm completely clueless electrically, but F-USB in Vzla told me how. One of them should be able to correct me and elaborate. The basic fix is to put a 12 V Zeder diode on the pink security wire...
I would waste too much time there... Although they say misery loves company, I'm sure the night before cost is due the room will be full.

That happens here too Gug, I think last year Alumni and team members gave about $5000 to our team. We used this money as kind of a slush fund for when we wanted to buy things, but not go through the...
They should be able to help you out with that no problem. I think there are a few options in the offest that you can choose in 1" increments. However, be very careful with the info Keizer gives...
conflict of interest
n. pl. conflicts of interest
A conflict between a person's private interests and public obligations.
Your point is....
I think that we all can learn from Claude in that...
Brian,
We used that engine model last year for the f4i. It starts out with the stock intake and the mounting points were a bit off from the actual f4i. However it definitly gives you a good...
Driven,
I think everyone fully understood your argument and disagreed with you fully. Not only was it, in my opinion, completly wrong, it was also poorly worded and offensive to Claude.

Storback,
Sorry, I didn't realize that he didn't work for MoTeC as I haven't been to the seminar. I was just trying to prove that saying it's a conflict of interest was completly wrong.
Brent
Even so, he works at MoTeC and it is a MoTeC seminar. If you are surprised by the fact that they try to sell MoTec products I find that hard to believe. I'm not sure how it is conflict of interest...
Matt,
It is not a FSAE requirement for your team to be affiliated with a local SAE chapter. Our school does not even have an active SAE chapter, however we have 2 baja teams and 1 FSAE team. ...
Just when I couldn't be more impressed you go and do that http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Might want to read all of Charlies post..

Thanks again for the feedback,

God Ryan...stop writing such stupid stuff. Our spindles have never been 4340 until now, they were 1020 steel with no heat treat. Talk about systems you actually know about, instead of trying to...
