Mmm....donuts.

As promised, the Cornell ARG04 in action in a damn cold 5am run. And a cool experiment with flammable materials.

Looks like you guys could mount up some snow tires and get some "winter testing" in. Good Job!

What kind of wheels are those?

Snow tires would be great. Even the rain tires are going to be pretty useless for the next while. Apart from yesterday and today, temps here have been below average since a couple of freakishly warm 65F days back in early January. Looks like more of the same the rest of the week, with another 5-9 inches of "snow" (really, ice, sleet and other nasty stuff) due today.

Wheels themselves are normal Keizers, centers are custom cast magnesium this year. They're pretty cool, as are the shavings from hollowing out bits and drilling bolt holes, etc. Big white light.

Hey Mike,

How long where your wheel centers in the design stage?

[Michael Jones]

Not sure specifically how long the wheel centers took to design - pretty much everything on the car goes through design from the start of the year to Thanksgiving, with a few things getting redesigned right about now. It was a new project for this year - we were trying to fit on purchased mag centers last year but there were offset conflicts in there.

The car is a bit of a bitchin' Camaro right now. That orange flash isn't a photoshop trick - underbody light mounted to the side impact beam. I'm waiting for the purple velour firewalls and shag carpeting underbody panels.

What you get when your EE's get stir crazy...the light I'll accept for a bit, but they declared Wham's "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" as their theme song, despite my assurances that Wham! sucked the first time around and my suggestion that the song greatly increases the likelihood that I explode into psychotic rage and annihilate everything.

Hopefully a little time off will return them to some semblance of normalcy.

A bit better than the donut one.
