Who will provide a 12 Bar, pay for a subframe, and allow you to stunt on school property......yep, Kettering. All in the name of science.

Don't know how I'm getting away with it, but my capstone class is gonna allow me to test the forces on a 12 bar. How pimp is this?!?!?! Allow me.....ITS F*CKING PIMP. :YEAH

Check the picks, this is for real. Ahhh, getting class credit for what I love....thats how school should be.

Oh, yea....Special thanks out to Niner. Picked up all his calculations from his time in the course last year.

 

....and yes, drinking is involved in the assembly.

 

Haha .. thats pimp **** :YEAH :YEAH

 

Didn't niner try this last year?

 

Yea, thats why I thank him at the bottom of the post. I never had to do any calculations, they all were done. When he tried it last year the data aquisition system ran out of power and they couldn't get any numbers. Thats why they're letting me do it again. :YEAH

 

Ahhh, so niner fawked up. How surprising


Here ya go buddy, don't forget it now!

 

Ah the GM way.. use other people to get your own work done.. and all in the name of mediocrity .

 

I didn't **** up, the professor did. "gee i figured the batteries were good, but I guess I always had the power cord plugged in so it was runninng off that and not the batteries." Break the subframe Borne, that was the goal of the original project. I wanted to know how hard you had to slam the bar before you broke the subframe. ....and Lucky I got a 100% on the project.

 

Wow, who knew enginering students could be such overly sensitive drama queens

 

Go do a rain dance so you have an excuse not to ride.
...no longer a student, i'm the real deal now.

 

I'll see what I can do. My track record isn't good though, I'll probably snap my frame before a subframe.

 

TRUE

 

First couple scrape it as lightly as possible.
Next couple, park it.
Then pull in the clutch, bounce it off the limiter and dump the clutch. :YEAH

 

if he bounced his motor on the limiter it probibly would explode

 

Don't even have to hit the limiter for that.

 

hey, your motor is just as reliable as the next suzuki....

Borne ---> <---Bornes Bike

 

Is that Flopers bike in the back ground? Why dont you just steel parts from his bike he will never ride it again

 

kettering? lol, there's an elementary school named that around were i live, i was like "that's a lil advanced for the 5th grade buddy!"

 

Your transducer doesn't look like it would be very sensitive. I would have used load cells and recorded all three directions. Which you may doing with your transducer. I would have also install an accelerometer to capture the Gs of the scrap. You could tell a lot more information then a few full bridge strain gages at least I am assuming they are wired and laid in a complete wheat stone bridge configuration.

Yeah and don't forget the Flux Capaciter! But don't go over 88mph!
