STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

The main purpose of participating in Baja Asia 2010 is our auto passion and Baja is definitely one of the excellent ways to let it manifest itself into a purposeful endeavour with team members learning the basic design procedure, sorting out their issues with other sub-systems through technical discussions, appreciating the significance of the interface between design and fabrication and ultimately test it thoroughly thus making a vehicle par excellence. Besides, students also get a practical view about issues such as costing, sponsorship and marketing which play a role a paramount importance in the automotive segment.

Basically we would love to build a vehicle for a competition as exhilarating as Baja which serves as an excellent platform for students all over the nation to exhibit their skills and thus doubles up as a great learning experience.

For Baja 2009, we had a Baja vehicle which was designed for a dynamic factor of 5, thus making it very safe but also heavy. This time we would like to go for a vehicle which would be an amalgamation of frugal engineering and reliability.

We would like to experiment with different material selection and also add dynamic electronic monitoring systems during the test phase to study the vehicle characteristics for further optimization. On the whole we would like to gain automotive knowledge from this unique experience and also make our college proud by giving our deepest levels of commitment towards Baja 2010.
