i was lucky enough to be the only freshman on my SAE mini baja team at NJIT, we have 2 teams, and its lots of fun, ive been learning alot about welding and manufacturing, and all the engineering that is put into building a tubeframe, its really great stuff. the only bad thing is that my team is soooo lazy, our frame isnt finished when it very well could be, i keep getting on their case to do stuff or give me somthing to do, but its lots of fun otherwise, i got to design the dash face in Pro Engineer, and we are going to mill it from 1/8" aluminum, and im in charge of making a retractable steering column to make it easier to get out of the car in 5 seconds....
but anyways, ,its lots of fun, and here is a pic of our chassis so far Attached thumbnail(s) |

Thats a pretty cool link. The competition isnt actually about being a race car, its about the design process. Half of the competition is the originality of the car and technique used for design. The goal is to build a budget race car to be mass produced. |
