Wow, Oregon has a really light car:


Like I said, really light:


And, Maryland made quite the rear wing change between Detroit and Cali.

Damnit, I'm not joining twitter. Congratulations to all the design semi and design final teams; you've got some good looking cars.

Travis,

Could be wrong but I think you can see tweets without joining.

Rachel is putting up some good stuff too.

Just got off the phone with Bryan - suspension lead. Sounds like UW is looking good overall (making a few assumptions about accel, skid, and how things shake out between the top two in desing). I think they are a little bummed that they didn't make design finals, but very happy with the easy points they scored by massively improving Presentation over the team's normal placement (points is points as they say).

Just spoke with Bryan from UW (suspension lead). They are feeling pretty good, although a little dissapointed to not make finals. Some consolation in their Business Presentation score. They are feeling good overall.

Last I heard, SLO was having trouble passing brake. They missed accel and skid pad.
