Frank,
I am VERY impressed. VERY MUCH.
Can old cars/teams compete???
For example, can I bring 2004 to compete?
What's up Mike?! U back in T.O.?
I don't think you can just put it down to grippy tires and a light car. Do you have tire data to verify this? Does your suspension geometry take into account the maximum available lateral loads the...
I drove w/ MSU's second driver in 2004. I got blue flagged on the back section and flew by when I pulled into the be-passed lane...... after that there is a quick flick left and a short spurt to a...
Very interesting thread. After participating in the building of 4 cars, none of which I designed, but drove and managed those teams, I must say it really comes down to what the goals of the team are:...
Ok, Will Chan in that waterloo car was pretty fast I keep hearing....
How was the circuit? Similar to last year's? (and every year before that?)
Congrats to my ex team!!!!!!!!
I must admit, I thought Waterloo would take it after finishing 4th at FSAE....but my ex-team mate and enduro partner in crime Jerry Z. showed FSAE-dom that he is the...
If I can recall correctly, our data acq picked up top speeds in detroit in 2004 at approx 110km/h. Avg was around 55km/h.
The same year at FStudent, our top speed was 92km/h and avg was around...
MONASH 2005?!??! it's time to get out of the sport buddy!
But spoken like a true single advocate! I must say it is a convincing argument and I am tempted to believe it.
FStudent was quite the...
Re: Kimi's failure.
As his race engineer, I would have yelled at him over the radio for flat spotting the tire in the first place trying to pass a BACKMARKER Villeneuve....
Then when he gets...
As a non-cornell team member from Toronto, I'll vouch for them: they DO NOT have a formidable budget. Rumours of them having massive budgets is absurd. Case in point: check out their driver's...
Nice to see so many alums posting.... alums from successful teams too!
This year was my first year away from FSAE and just like Eddie said and Geoff echoed, FSAE will always be remembered.
To...
I hate to see this sort of tragedy. One of Toronto's solar car team students was killed just last summer and to hear a tragedy affect more engineering students just breaks my heart.
Prayers and...
Ahhh.... an appropriate thread for me to post on. Havent been here in a while.
I echo everyone's thoughts about SAE and it's value. This is just the beginning boys....if you've landed your dream...
Congrats to Wollongong, and esp to RMIT!!!! Those guys were a great battle in FStud 04, but they seem to have their stuff together to put another win in there.
Big Bird or Mark (karting wizard, as...
Witnessing tire testing is pretty cool.....esp when you pull the tire off the machine and it sticks to the ground and you can't peel it off...(and then u wish the Silverdome parking lot was all 80...
Congrats to all those teams now who have together pooled resources in order to attain very expensive tire data!
Last year when I did my final year thesis, I managed to convince our faculty it was...
Wow. That indeed is a record number. But this event is HUGE. It takes time to organize a second event in Cali. SAE Board recognizes the need for more everything (resources, money, people, etc) into...
Boy, it's been a while since I've posted on this thing.
Indeed, at FS2004, I did not have sex before the enduro!..... I don't think it woulda helped find that extra second we were off the pace...
Toronto goes to Fstudent every year. That would be SOOOO COOL to see an SAE car do the hillclimb. It would get the motorsports industry to turn their heads our way and see what bright young engineers...
Sato clearly belongs in Formula One. He may come across to you as reckless, but the truth is he is just pushing hard all the time. He is learning to take engineering orders now, but he is a major...
Sato is guaranteed for 2005. He recieves a cheque from BAR for his salary, but Honda puts money into BAR. The reason BAR pays his salary, is because of bonus system for points.
