    • Suspension System lead
      • Dec 2013 - Feb 2016

      Worked with new Chassis Lead to develop a unified system that offered significant weight and stiffness improvements over previous iteration while opening areas for possibility of an aero driven car. Utilized application specific tire data which was processed in-house to develop a suspension system that made good use of the tires both with and without the aero package. This suspension design was also very adjustable to adapt to many different tracks and applications. Then handled manufacture of most components and worked with suppliers to bring others to fruition. Then through testing and use of a Pi Sigma Elite data logger, developed a setup that was well suited to our drivers and tracks for competition. Also helped significantly with frame and other fabrication/welding. Show less
