FSG 2011 - Days 6 & 7

On Monday the team started off by packing up our equipment for transport to Hockenheim. At noon we transported our car, along with HS RheinMain's, to the city center, where we met with the Mayor of Russelheim for a photo shoot with our teams.

We then spent most of the afternoon with Opel, who took us on a tour of their museum and gave us a presentation on their vehicle dynamics simulation work.

We'd like to give a huge thanks to the city of Russelheim, the HS/UAS RheinMain team, and Opel, for being such generous hosts and providing invaluable testing time. Thank you!

Today, Tuesday, we spent a majority of the day at the track registering and unpacking the car/setting up our pit. Some of the team went for lunch in Heidelberg whilst others stayed at the track to watch motorcycles lap the 'ring on an open track day.

From this point on the frequency of blog posts will be increasing as we keep you up to date with the progress of the team throughout competition. Assuming we have adequate internet access at the track, we hope to update at least 3 or 4 times a day. We will also start uploading photos to Picasa and post the link when they are available.
