1 16" 349 rim. Only done a few hundred metres from new. One careful owner 😂Dressel Racing Team Bird Racing SGA Racing Nathaniel Olson Sahal
Making some parts for the new front subframe. These will be mounted on rose joints giving adjustable ride height/camber angle as inspired by Team Bird Racing Won't be done until Dunsfold I'd say but we're getting there. Nathaniel Olson Dressel Racing
Finally got around to ordering the replacement rim which arrived today. Time to get it laced, then make a steering linkage, make the brakes actually work, make a body and so on... Need to pick up the pace if we're to make the final this year! Dressel Racing Team Bird Racing
Free stuff! Our spares are available FOC to any interested Greenpower Education Trust teams: 2 mirrors (Greenpower standard) 1 Durite 24V 100A relay 2 Clark CMD-11 Brake calipers Bicycle chain (approx 500mm) Shimano sprockets 13, 14. 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 23 and 26 teeth DM if interested.
Looking 4 some 16" 349 Wheels for Thru Axles (preferably 20mm) Will consider wheels w/Disc Hubs an wheels w/Drum Brake hubs. Drop me a message if u know of any for sale, hopefully we can get our car rolling soon! Dressel Racing Nathaniel Olson Sahal CAUC SGA Racing
Running out of time for Dunsfold, so we took the plunge and invested in a set of Hope Pro4 20mm Axle Hubs. Would rims without eyelets do for now? We're running out of cash 🤔 Nathaniel Olson Sahal CAUC Dressel Racing
Does anybody know of any alternatives to the foams suggested in the rulebook to satisfy T7.9? Seems a bit wasteful to buy a boatload of insulation just to make one nosecone. Greenpower Education Trust Nathaniel Olson CAUC Sahal
Using an extension bar, a socket and a warped brake disc to drill PCD to bolt sprocket to hub. This would have been much easier with a mill + DRO / laser cut sprocket but this one was free! Turned out ok given the sketchy method. Nathaniel Olson Sahal Dressel Racing
Best way/place to make/buy motor sprockets? Using bike chain so the Greenpower ones aren't suitable. CAUC Dressel Racing weChook Racing Nathaniel Olson SGA Racing
Just been given the news that our wheels won't be back from the builder in time for the Greenpower Education Trust Dunsfold Test. Does anyone have any spare 16" wheels (20mm shaft) which we could borrow just for 1 event? Cardiff Greenpower Dressel Racing Sahal CAUC SGA Racing
