Mustang as Rally Car [ November 10th, 2009 ] By: Charles Smith Posted in » Videos

So Ford Motor Co contacted me and wanted to play up their 2010 Mustang. Surprisingly they had a Rally style competition between two guys in Mustangs. Here’s a video of it:


Link for you RSS peeps.

Now as for the competitiveness of the 2010 Mustang, there is no actual data supporting any claims. Utecht races a 1988 Mustang in the Central Group 5 series. He is a very good driver and has been winning events (and championships in the past) and is currently in 2nd for the Central Group 5 title. Unfortunately this says nothing for the 2010 Mustang as they have completely different frames, engines, suspensions, etc…

As for Hurst, while he does work for Rally America, I have been unable to find any info on him. I still prefer the Fiesta to the Mustang in terms of a Rally platform.

Not Rally: Beirut Bot [ May 13th, 2009 ] By:Charles Smith

So, I’m 10 days from graduation and in order to graduate I needed to do a Senior Design project. Since I didn’t really enjoy playing beer pong (long story), I figured I’d make a machine do it for me. That is how my partner and I came up with this:

Mark was actually a huge help through out this project. He was especially helpful with machining and cannon implementation.

Also, hell yeaaaa, 10 days to graduation. WOO.
