-Craigs list
-cycle trader
also how do you plan to get your license? because if you are plannin for the MSF course then you need to sign up RIGHT NOW, they get full really early.

Well we never used the stock cam tensioner anyhow.. if you use the aftermarket one you can pick up a bit of hp... sometimes up to 5hp depending on the tension you have it set at.
Oh and we avoided the RR due to packaging and CG location.. the CG is much higher on the RR motor than the F4i
if you guys dont already know.. you will be doing drysump eventually... easy way to lower the engine 2.5 inches ... (well i shouldnt say easy..lol)
i could go on for hours about the F4i motor.. but i'll stop...
Anyhow, yeah im just going to keeep my eyes open, im not in any hurry. |
yup already workin on the dry sump. Right now we are welding up jigs to get a frame together. We wont be at this years comp at this rate but we will be at next years. ASU's FSAE died for a few years due to fallout in professors, advisors, and students. We used to have a class dedicated to design and such for FSAE. Right now we are on the rebound (or have been for the past year and a half) getting all our sponsors back, materials together, and starting to build our car. We have had the plans for the most part done but as you know things always change. So we are like the new founding fathers of the club. Kinda sucks though as I will only see 2 cars go to competition.
