Does anyone have copies of design reports from schools that scored well previously?
We've always lost points on this and really have never been able to determine what the judges really want to see. What makes a good design report? I'd love to see what other schools reports look like. |

I know that TTU is on the board, and they have always done well in design... Any chance we can see an old design report? Maybe if you show yours, I'll show mine :)

Design reports are top secret!
I think I can find Auburn's from '03 that won 1st. Probably embarrassing to look at now... We had a student tech writer from the English department come to help in writing the report. We ended up reverting every change she made and still wound up #1. Didn't tell her though. Edited by JeremyB - Dec/18/2008 at 11:30am |

Our team also need help on the design report & cost report. That is where we are lacking from years past.

What elements did the judges like about that report? If you don't want to share the report, could you share an outline or maybe some bullet points? I'd be more then willing to share ours, but it scored quite poorly. Maybe some peer review would be helpful. Edited by TerpsRacing-Dan - Dec/18/2008 at 4:38pm |

Email me at DanielSethPearl@gmail.com for a copy of our report. It scored 35/75 at Montreal, which i feel was a bit harsh. I think alot of our problems with it were having one person write it (me) and not starting early enough. Any feedback you can give would be great, feel free to tear it apart.
BTW do you have an SAE paper # for your loading report, I'll dig it up the next time I get to the library. |

As has been said here, design reports are very valuable information. I remember ours actually getting stolen at the Dayton race in 2005!

I do realize that but i'm more concerned with the format... so a good written 1993 report would do...
