Anyone that is
interested in attending the Washington Baja
Competition from May 15th through the 28th let
me know now. Reply back to this email this
week! The trip's transportation and lodging
will be paid for; moreover, the only money you
will need is for food pre and post competition.
Major meals during the competition are supplied
by sponsors at the event. We will be doing some
sort of camping on the drive up and be hanging
in the desert or something exciting after the
competition in Washington or Idaho. Even if
your name is on the board, reply back with a Yes
or No PLEASE.
NIU CEET Polo's
are available. They are 10 bucks. Everyone
that is going to Washington is required to wear
one for the various presentations and such. I
am making an order form now so don't wait on
this! (how many, what size?)

The month of October was great success. We
have some enthused members who are anxious to get
working on the new car. The old car is fixed
and driving. We are in the process of trying
to break it. It will serve as a good back up
design incase we fail on our new gear box design.
We are planning a memorial dinner for Alex;
therefore, his parents and brothers will be
attending along with some relatives. It will
be a big even with home cooked food. Find out
how to help plan for this event.

Chassis design is almost complete. Good ideas
are on the drawing board to finalize the 6 speed
trans and drive train. Suspension design is in
good hands. Team meeting will be Thursday at
5:30ish in the lab. Work on sponsorship, steel
invoice, and getting the car back together for
homecoming is are primary task. See everyone
tomorrow!
