It is official. The new chassis is in our shop waiting to be worked on. We are about ten weeks away from competition. It is crunch time! Huge shout-out to VR3 Engineering for welding our chassis. And a special thanks to Dan Byrne, Prof. Michael Zimmerman and David Stone + Honor Fullerton for their generous support and for helping us get this new chassis! With the old chassis staying in the club for six years, this is a major step for the team.
Watch our short tour of the new chassis on Facebook:
The chassis didn’t just magically appear in our shop. The team spent many long weeks making design decisions to make sure we are rules compliant and most importantly, our drivers are safe to compete. Check out the CAD model of the chassis below:
