Planning Ahead

The past week has seen the usual sanding on the plug. The job has been long and hard, but it is almost done! Many thanks to the team members who were able to contribute to the task.

At tonight's meeting, Abe and Nick shifted the teams attention to the months ahead. The fact that we are behind schedule was made clear, but there is still plenty of hope for the team. Spring Break will be the team's chance to catch back up and ensure our entry into the 2010 ASC. We also began the process of choosing drivers. Height and shoulder width measurements were taken to the final adjustments to the roll cage design could be made. Brian and Gary spent more time working on the design for the rear suspension arm.

The electrical team began testing the battery cells from the 2008 car. The cells were determined to be in acceptable condition and the process of assembling them into modules will soon begin. Meanwhile, more sanding was done to the plug. Once the sanding was finished on a section of the plug, Tim gave a quick demonstration on how to apply Bondo to the surface to fill in any pinholes and gouges. To finish the night off, the lab was given a thorough cleaning.
