The University of Utah solar car has a number of requirements for the steering system. The only component missing for the steering system is the rack and pinion. With the use of the rack and pinion the demands will be met. These requirements are stated in the regulations for the American Solar Challenge.

The first thing that needed to be done was take all the measurements of the existing car and evaluate if the frame and front suspension would allow for the turning radius required. The second thing was to design or buy a rack and pinion that would work for the solar car.
First, all the measurements and calculations of the existing solar car were taken and evaluated to see if the frame and front suspension would allow for the turning radius. Second, was to design or buy a new rack and pinion that would be compatible.
After all the measurements and the calculations were made, the solar car frame and front suspension are where they needs to be to function properly. The rack and pinion was bought instead of manufactured, due to time restraints.
After completing all the measurements and calculations for the solar car, the frame and front suspension met all the standard requirements. The rack and pinion was purchased due to time restraints.
The lessons I learned with steering, is that there are a lot of angles that need to be considered in designing a complete steering system. If these angles are not considered in the design the car will be unstable at higher speeds. The Safety of the car depends on the steering.
The safety of the driver and the car depends on the steering being stable; therefore, I learned that a complete and accurate steering system involves a lot of angles that need to be precisely calculated in order to remain stable at higher speeds.

We really aren’t going to put one on.
