Besides book learnin, I've been working on an extra special project. No soz it aint computer related.
I joined a race car team
Every year they/we build a race car and go to California to race it. It's pretty cool, powered by a 600cc honda cbr engine, and weighs about 400 lbs. The main limiting factor is that it has to breath through a 2cm hole... that drops the stock hp of about 80 down to about 30... we end up tuning it back up to around 80 with our l33t engine tunin skillz.
Now for the pics
Here are previous cars my little team has made.
way back from 1999
2001
2002
2003
2004/2005
2006
2007
now for the interesting stuff I helped make 2008 our chassis with engine mocked in right after welding (the big guy is 6' 4" and the small guy is 5' 3" I think),also in these pictures is the seat mold, we laid down some carbon fiber in the mold and got ourselves a perty carbon fiber seat out of it.
last and certainly least interesting... the box of doom (aka the sanding room)
Oh and I built a dump truck. It had to travel unaided from one side of a track dump 2kg and return all without interference. Ours did it perfectly... and the fastest out of anyone in our class. Only problem was our axel holes we didn't line it up correctly a couple times, so it didn't return entirely withing the loading zone in the first round of the competition. Here is a very short vid clip of it http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v39/joe_limon/morecars/?action=view¤t=MOV02934.flv and here is a pic
but all hasn't been bright and happy
The past couple days we be having a blizzard... It snowed... and snowed... and snowed...
first day...
second day...
well aside from a couple things I drew, that about sums up my hiatus.
My poop is clean and pure as the giggles of new born babies.
