FSAE West Practice May 6/7 2006

[wingman]

Hey Everyone,

We are planning to do a practice event on May 6th in the parking lot of Cal Speedway in conjunction with an autoX practice as was done last year with skid pad and accel courses in the morning and autoX and endurance in the afternoon, judging has not been discussed yet and will depend on the # of cars vs. the number of volenteers. Sunday the 7th will be a normal autoX practice that FSAE teams may enter for more track time, but it will be autoX only. We will keep you posted on this as details get firmed up, but we expect to be able to handle between 10 and 20 cars.

Please let us know if you are interested so we may better prepare....

Ian: Berkeley is for sure wanting to come down. We will bring at least one car (we plan to finish the second car before then, but you know how plans work).

We'll come watch again!

[LCheung]

When is the latest you guys need to know by as far as whether or not we want to participate? Which school is running the event this year?

[strong_auto_concepts]

We talked it over here and would like to come down. Possibly with two cars. We might be able to work something out with the Washington guys too.

Cal poly pomona is getting the sanction/insurance through our local solo2 section. SAE is running it.

We would like to know whos coming in advance so that we can get enough judges, etc. A few weeks before is prefered, but if you decide to come hours before the event, you will still be welcome to participate.

UCSD will try to make it, possibly with 2 cars as well.
