Thanks guys, I'm flattered.

The budget cut was for the Formula SAE Team, they still cut our budget this year but the exposure helped. The funding we get from the school is only enough to cover stuff like travel expenses and a few other things, most of our money comes from donations and sponsors. The motorsports program is still intact..

The Scotts damper is used here for roll damping, not steering damping (but it is a motorcycle steeting damper), just in case anyone was really scratching their head over where it's mounted.

Brian: Ceramic or metal matrix pistons... thats what you need.

That's awesome, and thanks again for your help with the carbon fiber project I had to do a year ago.
