http://www.motec.com.au/details.htm ?

its the 24-26, which is conveniently scheduled for right after competition.

looks to be pretty interesting. the topics are:
tire dynamics and characteristics
aerodynamics
vehicle kinematics and dynamics
dampers
tranmissions and brakes

there is also a part about daq that looks fun (if not over my head )

i went in 2002 (2 day seminar)

you should go. take a lot of notes in addition to the packet they give you.

I start my internship on the 24th, after I had them move it back so I could attend the competition. I'm pretty pissed about this though. Isn't it really expensive, though?

ragnaroek

its like $240 or so, plus hotel. hopefully, uiuc is going to foot the bill for me to attend

If you can go to the seminar it's worth going to.
