A tragedy which should have never happened!
These cars should not have been 'racing'. A proper student engineering competition allows for demonstration of a student built vehicle's performance...
My association with Doug goes back to the early '80s. We both worked in the motorsports industry. I have always enjoyed the conversations I had with Doug. He was a practical engineer, who did not...
Speaking of the Ohio State video… Pat & I were there. Here is what we remember. As the saying goes ‘And now for the rest of the story…’
I think it was the year Carroll died and Wollongong won,...
Alumni, You clearly ‘don’t get it’. FSAE/FS is a learning/educational experience. (THE most successful Collegiate Engineering Competition / Learning Experience on the planet.) Every Design Judge...
Dr. Bob, If I am a God, then the Oregon State and Auburn U. Baja cars are the Chariots of the Gods. As Indian students asked me what their car should look like, I would pull up pictures of your...
I will say this about Indian student competitors and posting on international forums such as fsae.com, and others...
This is a learning forum. Hopefully students with (meaningful) questions (and...
I will echo what Claude, Geoff, Kaley and Michael have already stated. I tried to publish the DJ recruiting guidelines we use, but FSAE.com told me the document had too many characters to be cut and...
Yes, nice try Bob, BUT... E-cars (especially with AWD) are e-cars. But, you are right, Delft's run was awesome as well. I was talking about IC cars only. So, Michigan Ann-Arbor @ 3.766 is the...
Congratulations to all teams at FSAE-MI. I was unable to attend Wednesday & Thursday due to a day job commitment, but was able to be on-site all day Friday & Saturday. Tony & Bill had the Design...
Hi John,
Welcome! Your participation will add a welcome level of expertise.
For those of you who have not done your rod end homework, John represents one of the (if not THE) best rod end...
Bill was one of those guys that comes along once every few generations. He certainly led a full life, and accomplished things the rest of us might only dream of. I immensely enjoyed reading of his...
This thread started off with good intentions, and it just keeps getting better. Pat keeps poking at the slower posters (who, quite simply, ‘don’t get it’) in a concerted effort to speed up the...
Interesting thread. But in a way, it is typical of the questions we see, with some really stellar responses! Formula SAE, Formula Student, FSAE.com, and other similar forums are all about sharing...
“I feel the need. I feel the need… for SPEED!” An immortal quote uttered by Tom Cruise in ‘Top Gun’. As exciting as the movie Top Gun was (in its day) Maverick was only an actor. You on the other...
This help wanted ad worked fabulously well. Tony & I would like to extend a hearty Thank you to all who replied. We had more than enough great applicants for the few design judge positions we had...

As a volunteer for this event, I can’t just idly stand by and watch some of you complain about this move, so here is my 25¢. (I am a Senior Design Judge, so my opinion costs more…)
The second US...

I will let you all know that Formula Student Germany is now an official member of the growing list of FSAE student competitions. You can read all about it on the FSG and SAE websites.
