[race12001]

so what are yall goin to do with it

[2oodoor]

doesn't this thread proceed a previous one on this same project (first on being the frame build) ?
I was curious how that front suspension field tested __O%o

[Zufer]

haven't quite got it running yet. But there will definitely be more pictures and video to come.

The car is going to run in the SAE Baja Competition (http://students.sae.org/competitions/bajasae/) in Illinois in May.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys.

Man that looks like a ton of fun. Good work on your craftsmanship and design, it looks really sweet! Makes me wanna go back to school for something like this... Is it for a Mechanical Engineering degree or something like it? If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to build everything (if you can divulge that info publicly)?

[Zufer]

there car itself is approximately 8-10. I don't know exactly how much exactly. And yes i'm getting a mechanical engineering degree.

Here are a couple more pictures of it.
