The Buckeye Bullet
« on: January 18, 2013, 12:55:22 PM »
Hey Guys,

First. if this is old news please bear with me as I am a newbie here.

I saw this article in Scientific American Magazine and thought some might enjoy it.
It is pretty cool that most of the team is students.

This is the new vehicle: http://www.buckeyebullet.com/BB3.html

They gave a presentation in 2011 at IMIS - the ultimate goal is 500 mph!

Now where on earth have I heard THAT before? :-o :-D

2013 is going to be a great LSR year!  :cheers:
