Charlie - that test track footage is nice! That looks like a blast to drive. Is that a kart track?

Yes, it's a track about 4 hours away. Nice track for our cars (shifter kart track). A lot of fun. I wish it was closer, we'd visit it more often! Hopefully this summer we will have 2 cars again

That's a very nice video, VERY well done. Professional quality. But 73 ft-lbs of torque? If you made that at 6000 RPM it'd be over 80 HP. Maybe you meant 37?

Funny Charlie, I first found that video from McGill a few months ago, and was totally impressed with it. But the 73ft-lbs figure is utterly amazing (or ridiculous).

Yeah I know about this wrong value but this was an estime one of our team member gives to the guy doing the video... don't worry... we do not have the highest hp of all FSAE cars. ;-)

Still... it is impressive for non-fsae members...

Good luck in the continuation of your car...

Yeah - that McGill video is pretty sweet. I always new that Fuel was a good song to set a racecar to! Question, are the engine sounds really yours, because they sound awfully Indycarish

any of you guys check out the NIU videos i posted...i appologize for this weekend if you tried, my roomate disconnected my computer from the switch.

They haven't been "officially" posted on the site yet but you guys can download these two sample videos. The first two videos are from testing on small, tightish autocross tracks at uni. The first video is in-car the second shot regularly. I'll get some more stuff up soon including our wind tunnel smoke vis. The third video is from the Race, Endurance Event. Out of interest the orange car that we pass is from South Australia and was built by a team of 4 people. The other tiny blue car is the single cylinder Tokyo Denki car which will be in the states this year, probably with more horsepower(from 40 up to 60ish?) and down to about 160kg. I think it weighed 180kg in Australia.

Hey Kho(maybe Wingman or Kingmissle can answer too?), I was surprised you guys didn't have a helmeted driver in the car for that smoke vis stuff, did you have one for measurements? Just wondering.

Keep the vids coming people.
(Bam Bam perhaps...? If you're not too busy of course...)
