Our car weighs 482 pounds, much better than 520+ the last few years. We're in Paddock 65 between UW-Madison and Manitoba, and two stalls down from GFR.

Bunch of different combinations looking really good. Colorado State has full ground effect sidepods, Missouri S&T with their linear actuator DRS, Kansas has a huge one-piece rear wing and undertray, Mizzou has servos embedded in wing elements for DRS, and someone said Akron has around 300 pounds of downforce with their undertray and wings. Lots of single cylinder engines, probably half a dozen running Aprilia 2-cylinders, and the usual assortment of 4-cylinders. Jayhawks are running a stressed member CBR600RR with really nice rear suspension packaging and aero.

Good times talking with different teams, should be a good rest of the week.

Kansas State has the Rear Wing and Diffuser Assembly. Oh and Merica!

I keep referring to them and the Jayhawks as Kansas, completely my fault for getting them mixed up. Though I do have a sweet picture of the 'Merica mural.

We finally got through tech, 4 drivers through egress and hoping the 5th gets through in the morning, otherwise I'm driving with zero seat time. Tilt/Brake/Noise tomorrow morning along with trying to get to Skidpad and Acceleration for the first time in 3 years.

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 playing with my spreadsheet!

Are you talking about audio or video streaming? Because I only remember audio streaming from last 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 before, if I'm not mistaken. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

i am pretty sure we will be doing the same audio stream as last year; i will double check with SCCA tomorrow and post online for all.

Awesome thanks for the update!

And congrats to all the design finalists! I'm surprised to see RIT missed out, but it looks like all those that made it certainly deserve it!
