Many original links are no longer accessible, so perhaps we could get an edit for the first post. Very useful thread, thank you all so much for taking the time to post all of this!

If no one gets around to it, eventually I will go through everything and recompile it. Only question is should I post it here, or should we start a new thread since the original post is pretty old? Let me know what you think!

Hello! I am a newcomer to formula SAE and am getting a head start my senior year of high school. The university I will be attending next year doesn't have a team and I am hoping to start one. As all of you know there is tons of work involved and I am trying to get as far ahead now as i can. Does anyone have a condensed list/ best of list on books for

picking parts:
Chassis Design:
suspension:
engine build/design:
driving:
picking up sponsors:

amazon ratings don't quite do justice to the level of relevant info to FSAE that each books contain

are there also threads on here about a walkthrough of teams getting started? I have heard of University of Nebraska Lincoln, the host of SAE West had such a thread but can't seem to find it (if i am blind don't hesitate to tell me)

There are two "stickied" threads worth reading, one called "Book List for reference to car design" and the other "SAE Papers on Formula SAE". You'll find useful suggestions there.

I suggest "Learn & Compete: A Primer for Formula SAE, Formula Student and Formula Hybrid Teams" as a good place to start:

If you can do it I would suggest attending one of this year's FSAE competitions as a spectator.

Thanks! I've already started a wish list on amazon for a ton of them

I am actually attending all four days of Formula SAE West since its held only 40 or so miles away. Anything important I need to be looking for/ asking come june?

thanks
