A few updates. Looks like the rest of the cage is now going to be TIG welded instead of MIG. The A bar mockups are done and should be in the car shortly. A lot of effort went into the design of it to produce the high level of quality this build will demand. Now that that is out of the way progress should start to pick up momentum.
A new intercom system being developed by an acquaintance of mine that is going to be superior to most anything on the market could be in the works. It would produce a higher quality sound than what is currently offered, allow audio out for cameras, and support a 2-meter HAM radio in/out. And possibly most interesting of all I also have a lead on a custom LCD race display that has roots in FSAE and just might be what I've been looking for! That will require some further investigation before I start setting plans into motion for something like that. More info and pics to come soon. |

Some stats about the features in the new intercom that is being developed:
- Driver In/Out - Co-Driver In/Out - HAM Radio In/Out (Input Isolated by a 1:1 audio isolation transformer) - Aux In (for a iPod or MP3 player) - Aux Out (for the video cameras) - Aux 2 Out 7:59 - Compressor/Limiter on each channel (will compress both driver and co-driver channels at the same time. Compression/Limiting is used to reduce the levels of the peaks that way you can have it loud but not get your ears blown out when your co-driver/driver decides to yell outside the car) 7:59 - Independent volume control over Co-driver and Driver channels. No more driver turning up volume and then the Co-driver channel gets louder. - 50/50 split of volume over driver and co-driver. HAM Radio would have the same volume when used as well. - Both driver and co-driver MICs will be heard over the HAM Radio Out. - LED for Power Status (On/Off) |

Update: Looks like these might be the seats I'll be going with.
Sparco ProADV Also looks like I'll be going with Schroth harnesses. These will be the latch style rather than the usual cam-lock. With the conditions that everything will be subjected to, the cam-locks have been known to jam from dirt/grime. The latch system is bulkier, but less prone to failure in rally conditions. |
