I expressed interest last week in the Formula SAE race team here- Dr. Callis but me in touch with the captain. I met him at the University Des Sarlandes campus to see the car and talk to him about their group.
The team competes in the electric race-car competition and has a pretty cool car. They definitely have a lot of problems to overcome for this year's design and build. As I was seeing the car part of me wanted to be a part of the team, but the other part was afraid to go down the rabbit hole. I could see it getting real ugly and time consuming.
The captain was really nice, though, and understood my indecision on commitment to the group. He agreed to put me on the email list and will let me know when they kick-off the year. I think I will try to help in any non-committal fashion.
Also, the lab had a really cool 7 or 8 gear transmission built and spliced by ZF:
