Im the team leader / head designer / CNC monkey boy at a University that participates in a SAE competiton. Lots of universities build these. Unfortuneatly, we have no funding so most of the stuff you see in those pics I paid for. Ahhh, the sweet scent of debt

The white car is geared for 100, does 0-60 in something like four secs. (its 650 pounds. its a big heavy bitch)

The yet to be completed car is geared for 80, should do 0-60 well under four, and should be 500 pounds in the end.

In the top pics you see the rain tires mounted . . . pointed in the wrong damn direction. Stupid custom grooving.

And as for racing goes, there is a large race in Pontiac Michigan every year. THe white car is from 2 years ago, the under construction beast is for the 2004 competition. All in all, next year will be my 4th year involved with innumerable hours spent designing. I fucking love it though, im going to miss the shop when i graduate.
