I am the team captian of FSAE at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. We are a first year team and I thought it would be interesting, for those of you interested to follow a rookie team through the year designing and building our car. Check it out at http://www.orgs.muohio.edu/miamisae/2006blog.php and look back often for new posts.

This is a great idea. More teams should do this (I'd say Cornell should, but we can't even update a freaking webpage.)
If you could set up an RSS feed for it, it'd be easier to follow for me at least.

Thanks for the link - I'll be following with interest. http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
If it ever makes it to a 'mailing list' that saves (lazy/forgetful...) me the effort of checking back then please chuck marko@cosic.org.uk on!

That's a great idea! Wish I had the patience to do that.
beat you to it:

but we only covered the actual competition. don't expect any updates as the year goes on. t'was a good way to keep the sponsors informed.

We have you beat still. Our engine log goes back through January.

this blog generated quite a lot of discussion both on these forums and at competition.
I always had it in the back of my mind more as something to have on the website for the frosh/potential recruits, so that they could get an idea of what kind of stuff we actually do.

That's awesome. Props man. Your whole website looks great.
It renews hope for my own team, and hopefully we will have a website within the next month. Im definitely sharing it with the forums.
bravo,

Site looks great! Quick advice: Put the newer posts first.. Makes it that much quicker to read. Keep up the good work!

Interesting stuff to read. While I'm sure it might be too late for this year, you should look into getting some funding through your Student Government as a student organization. That might alleviate part of the conflict between you and some of the engineering department.
We still have to raise a lot of money here (as do all teams), but what Student Government gives us helps. I just look at it as a return on my tuition, since that's where part of the fees go.
