East Tennessee Region SCCA

Thanks for coming out! Sorry you won't be able to make the remaining events but we will look forward to seeing you next year!

Hope you are having a great day!

It could if the geometry is way off but that seems like it would be an extreme example. I think you want the swaybar as level as possible. Binding is typically caused by a swaybar that won't move freely in the bushings.

Are we really going to preach about sound for the FSAE car when half the time we don't run the meter or enforce the rules anyways? Short answer, you have to be STUPID loud to get anyone to give a hoot, especially when we run at bristol. Seeing that we have had an influx of excessively loud cars lat...

Also take a look at the swaybar and be sure it isn't binding. That's unlikely to cause a consistent pull but it isn't that unusual with aftermarket suspension stuff. Disconnect the end links on the swaybar and be sure you can move the ends of the bar up and down freely. Dielectric grease or KY jelly...

Be sure to bring your scales and be ready to weigh all the CAM cars.

Does our Formula SAE car and Shifter Kart need to comply with the SCCA SOLO sound requirement? Our car complies with the FSAE rules max sound level of 103 dBC at idle and 110 dBC at all other speeds; however, this is higher than the SCCA max sound level of 100 dBC. I am not sure what the sound leve...

I'll take course if nobody else wants it. If anyone new wants to try their hand at it, we can do what I did with Nick and take your design and work from there with you.

If you're there by 7:30 or 8, you should be good. Thanks!

I'll do event chair and Randy said he would do course.

Agreed. This was probably the best one we have done. Let's start planning for next year!

It's all good! Since we already have someone that has the nickname Novice Pro (whole other story), we can just call you Pro Novice.

Good to see you back out there!

Happy Father's Day

90% sure that I'm out for this year.

I liked the course, esp the end that would really mess you up if you overdrove it. It's hard for me to tone it down in the civic but I think I did alright. Anyways I have drawn up a draft for Bristol, with one loop, just ignore the fact that I accidentally drew it close to a pole, we can have that ...
