Short Week

Work continues at KV, we have sent our proposal in on time. Currently we are working on the frame and the drive train. We are figuring out the positions of the sprocket, brake, etc. on the drive axle. This week we haven't been able to do much because there was a presentation yesterday and the rest of the week the school has scheduled stuff in place of the time we use to work on the car. So next week we will continue were we left off in the picture that is shown.

Back To Work

Well we have returned to school from Christmas break and have returned to work on the car. The last day before break we were able to mount the wheels onto the main frame in order to get it rolling. Mostly for bragging rights just to get one of our goals completed. Even though we were able to get the wheels on, we had to take them back off so we can mount the brake, sprocket, etc. onto the axle.

Another requirement for this challenge is to have a written proposal on the design of our car. It is supposed to be postmarked by this Friday. We have finished it, but the snow days at the end of the semester set us back a lot. The proposal is the proof that we are finding math calculations on the car. We had to figure out aspects such as rolling resistance, aerodynamic calculations, and properties such as that.
