only if we can try your tires! I think the bolt pattern is the same http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Actually, we're not far off from some testing. Our front CV's should be in this week and so should our halfshafts. there's a bit yet to be done for the AWD system, but we'll be running RWD for a while first.

I can't wait to see Guelph's 2nd car....you guys did wonders last year for a 1st year team building on 3-4 people, and now are taking a difficult task of making an AWD car....

good luck to you guys!

Ben, if you guys come out on Saturday, we'll be running with our testing bodywork! Let us know how it goes.

Cheers!

Vinh,

Just wondering where you guys are testing? Looks like an aircraft hangar behind the car. We mainly are using some of the larger parking lots at the Uni as well as a race track in the south of calgary... always looking for new larger places though. Hope the weather holds. Great looking car, hope to talk to you in Detroit in person.

Steve,

Your observations are correct. We test at the world renouned Downsview Airport facility..... home to World Youth Day in 2002 when Mr. Pope visited, as well as SARS stock 2003 with the Rolling Stones!

It is also home to our Annual Shootout event where last year over 14 race cars met up for a fun day of lapping:

Looking forward to speaking in person too!

Cheers
