Hey everyone,
Just was curious if every team is supposed to fill out the design spec sheet in SI units only, it doesn't clearly state which unit system to use. This doesn't make much sense to me,...

Hi,
We were thinking of using a reverse floor mounted brake pedal in our car. That means the master cylinder will be infront of the pedal, below the driver's leg. However, only reverse "swing"...
TTT anyone else?
Wow, nothing?

If you are talking about the bearing on the Upper A-arm, it is not a rod end therefore not in bending...It is set up the same way as the Lower a-arm
Thanks for the help guys, keep the...
Another question..On both of our previous cars, we have been using spherical rod ends/pressed in spherical bearings which have worked fine. The major drawback with our design is the spacers that we...
Hey guys,
I am a Junior, building a FSAE chassis for next season. Working on designing and modeling the chassis right now, and there is one thing that I was curious about.
Our master cylinder...
By the time I made it down to VIR last year, the car had already went through tech, so I couldn't tell you what the deal was on that...Im going to cut the template out tomorrow and see what the...
After dropping an extra steering rack that we had laying around our shop into position where it could attach on the front side of the upright, it seems that it gets awfully close to the pedals and...
Not sure if this has been discussed here before, but just curious if anyone has any clear proof that the color Black dissipates heat better than any other color...saw an argument on a local car...
