Default Formula SAE anyone involved

i know i made a thread before but this is asking that our townsville team (leave us alone we're new) want basically if any teams have part, knowledge, or designs to pass on so we can have a look??

will pay for anything useful to us and you get rid of old stuff you cant use again its a 'win win' let me know either in this thread or PM and we'll organise something

hopefully even make it to the finals with a working car.

cheers

All I can say is dont spend all your time getting power out of the engine and not work on the chassis and brakes.

I wasn't part of the team (not smart enough lol) but that was pretty much how my uni Formula SAE team went the year I graduated.

Good luck.

I did Formula SAE for a few Years at Deakin University when the Team was called Phantom Engineering. A great experience with plenty of late nights.
