We bring Jacob on to talk about his role on the team and the important, and often overlooked, role chassis plays in a race car. We go over how we do things and how other teams might do things to produce more rigid and/or lighter chassis. The various materials that can be used and why some materials are really non-starters.

In our first subsystem deep dive, Mike and Peter join the podcast to discuss design considerations on FSAE powertrain systems. We also give some hint-hint wink-wink style suggestions to both engine manufacturers and the competition organizers to let us do rotary engines. Stay tuned for more of these deep dives on what it takes in FSAE.

Nigel joins Zach and Charlie to talk about our experience from virtual competition 2021. We talk about this year, the disaster that was last year and what virtual competition misses compared to in-person competition. If you are interested in joining an FSAE team and want to know more about competition this is a good one for you.

This episode we sit down with our Vehicle Dynamics lead and our EV chief engineer to discuss virtual competition. We also spend a little time talking about what it's like starting an EV team from an existing IC team. Is virtual competition weirder for people that haven't been in person or people that have? Find out on this episode of Data Driven Performance.

In our first episode we break down what FSAE is and what someone might expect when joining our team or teams at other universities. We also talk about how FSAE isn't just for engineers.
