my own personal hell

there are a ton of engineers on this forum... But they have real jobs and don't post in this thread.


I'm pretty sure there at least 20 other r3vers that have done FSAE as their senior project.

I'm an engineer, I have a real job and I post in this thread all at the same time!

As I have already said; the thought that the OP might make a vehicle that will be "roadworthy" scares the shit out of me. Thank god he lives in fucking Indiana.

What school? The university that I went to didn't offer any buttseks classes. I was sorely (;)) disappointed.

Well, that sucks. I feel some moral obligation to support engineering students simply for their motivation, regardless of their apparent level of social stupidity. That being said, it is one thing to get into engineering school and something entirely different to finish. I wish you good luck, brosef.

i mean honestly what do you want to do to me other than jizz on my face?

Aboslutely nothing. All I want to do is jizz on your face. Can you haz some jizz???

if it weren't for all the prereqs and dynamics classes i'd be done in 2 semesters if that long

its just so much math -algebra calulus trig, etc etc

dynamics-thermal, metal, fluid etc etc

i just wanna build something ahhhhhhhhhhh


and thats just the motorsports shit

[PeaveyBassist]

yes peavey i want yor jizz on mah face i want it in my mouth my hair everywhere it tastes so good

Do you like it when I hack your account you n00b?

you guys are mechanics at best not engineers so why would you question what the engineers have to say?

I'm far more than just a mechanic, chups. You prepare food, how does that in any way qualify you to even attempt to TALK about designing anything? The fact that you're in some community college engineering program means absolutely nothing, as is evident by your complete lack of understanding of everything.

pffft, you're not an engineer. Besides, I work with engineers all day long. I catch their mistakes all the time. They like being questioned. ;)

I have a lot of friends who are engineers, and they're all to a man very good people. The trouble with engineers however is that they're given a set of parameters to meet, and they will do that. They will never consider things like... oh, you had this bolt flange cast here, instead of 3 inches further to the right, which means to get the bolt behind it out I'll need to spend another 7 hours removing other parts.

They don't consider factors outside of their given workset, and it takes hours of discussion to convince them that it's an issue.

The engineers with which you work are either assholes or fucktards (read: lousy engineers).

You do make a good point, though. What you are describing is what a good engineer should be able to do. Anybody can follow instructions and read load tables. A good engineer does far more than that.

The problem is that the level of intelligence, skill, and abstract visual thought in today's engineering schools is very low when compared to those from 30-50 years ago. I can honestly say that of the thirty or so civil engineers who graduated in my class I would only trust three of them to design a facility which I used on a regular basis.

You need to find better engineers, they do exist.

IUPUI is a state college dumbass

and you are a mechanic not an engineer if you were you'd understand things like stress levels and why it's a better idea to have something cast in an inconvenient place with higher fatigue forgiveness as opposed to elsewhere. grow up admit your defeat and log back on in a few days with a new attitude.

So wait. Your telling us that someone who can't even weld none the less know rod lengths or piston heights is in school to design race cars?

I'm going to school for paint, collision repair, welding, fab and have the chance to add on high performance welding/fab, frame cutting(widing, shortening, lengthening) it takes a lot of know how and very exact math. You couldn't even weld or measure you plenum. How are you going to design and build actual race cars?
