>Hello,
>My name is Maria, I am working on FSAE project at Worcester Polytechnic
>Institute, and I was wondering if you guys could answer a little question.
>We built a car for a competition, and we are not sure what class we are
>in. We think it's SOLO II, but we need to know for sure, and I found a
>lot of contradicting info on the web...
>Our car is an open wheeled, open single seater, constructed out of a
>chrome moly space frame weighing 500lbs. It is powered by a
>600cc-motorcycle engine with a 20mm restrictor plate on the intake,
>producing just under 100hp. There is a picture of the last year's car
>(it's an annual project) at http://jjrencis.wpi.edu/fsae. It's kind of
>big, so if it takes you like an hour to download the page, I apologize for
>the inconvenience :-)
>Anyway, if anybody can help us, it will be greatly appreciated!!!
>We just need to know if this car qualifies for SOLO II....
>Thank you all in advance! :-)))
