Is this Fast Track for you?
The Practical Race Car Data Acquisition: RPM and Speed Analysis Fast Track is designed for the racer - from the professional road racer to the weekend racer - or the engineer who is incorporating data acquisition into their race team strategy and want to maximize the abilities of their system as quickly as possible. This course does not require any pre-requisite, as the content will unfold from the basics, up to the more advanced features of these important data acquisition sensors. The knowledge gained in this course can be applied the next day at any level of racing without any additional training or experience.

What You Will Receive
• Three months of online access to the 80 minute presentation • Integrated knowledge checks to reinforce key concepts • Proof of Participation

Practical Race Car Data Acquisition: RPM and Speed Analysis Fast Track
I.D.#PD230834ON (Online delivery)

Two of the most important and commonly used components in racing data acquisition today are engine RPM and speed analysis. These two channels of data give race teams and engineers critical information that can be used every day to help quantify changes in both the driver and the race vehicle. This 80-minute, online short course focuses on race car data acquisition, highlighting cornering speeds, engine acceleration rates, gear selection, engine RPM curves, shift times, throttle on/off, engine acceleration, wheel spin, brake lock, cornering speed, ignition cutout and much more. Whether you are a weekend racer or a professional data acquisition engineer, you will ﬁnd the components of this course fundamental to successful data analysis in the real world. From hardware installation to software interpretation, this course will give you conﬁdence and additional insight into these key pieces of data analysis.

The task of certifying an aircraft or part can be overwhelming given the lengthy process and the many steps that are required. Understanding the process can greatly enhance the outcome and reduce unnecessary delays or frustrations. This course will provide an overview of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) organizational structure, its policies, guidelines and requirements leading to Type and Supplemental Type airworthiness approvals. It will also cover the rulemaking process and rules applicable to aircraft parts and products. The course will deﬁne the roles and responsibilities of the Aircraft Certiﬁcation Ofﬁce (ACO), Manufacturing Inspection District Ofﬁce (MIDO), Flight Standards District Ofﬁce (FSDO), and the Aircraft Evaluation Group (AEG). Type and Supplemental Type Certiﬁcation (TC and STC) processes, and Change Product Rule for alterations and modiﬁcations to previously type certiﬁed aircraft will be discussed. FAA rule-making process will be examined including review of FAA Orders, Notices, Advisory Circulars and other guidance material.

Learning Objectives
By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Manage certiﬁcation programs more efﬁciently, schedule the required milestones accordingly, and identify problems and address them promptly • Describe the principles of Type Certiﬁcation and Supplemental Type Certiﬁcation requirements and process • Converse intelligently and enter negotiations with others involved in FAA certiﬁcation programs • Describe the FAA system, FAA orders, Advisory Circulars, FAA rule making process • Deﬁne what exemptions and special conditions are and how to obtain them • Identify the difference between airworthiness standard and operational rules

Major topics include:
• Introduction • Set-up for Acquiring Engine RPM Data • Acquiring and Analyzing Engine RPM Data • Interpreting RPM Results • Set-up for Acquiring Speed/MPH Data
