www.bajasaeindia.org 43 | Page
Stage 3 Dynamic (Panic) Brake Testing Both the external and cockpit kill switches will be tested for functionality. If both switches pass the test then the vehicle will be dynamically brake tested. Each vehicle must demonstrate its ability to lock all four wheels and come to rest in an approximately straight line after acceleration run to reach at least 45 kmph or as specified by the inspectors. If a vehicle fails to pass any part of the inspection it must be corrected/ modified and brought into compliance with the rules before it is permitted to operate. The inspectors and officials have the right to re-inspect any vehicle at any time during the competition and require correction of any non-compliance. On successful completion of Stage 3, the Third sticker will be put on the firewall. Acquiring the three stickers marks the completion of Technical Inspection and makes them eligible for Dynamic Evaluation. NOTE: 1. All drivers must be present at technical inspection, in case of failure the names of driver will be removed from the Final list of drivers and a 10 point penalty will be applied to the team. 2. Teams presenting Self Certification Sheets that are (1) incomplete, (2) inaccurate (i.e. do not correspond to the actual condition of the car) (3) are found to have more than 3 items not in accordance with the rules, or (4) do not represent a serious effort at pre-inspection will be denied inspection at that time and sent back to the end of the inspection line with a 100 point deduction /other penalties which shall be prominently displayed at the site at least 60minutes before commencement of Technical Inspection of the first vehicle. 3.

6.2.1 Speed Events 6.2.1.1 Acceleration A. Objective Acceleration determines the time it takes the vehicle to accelerate along 100 ft (30.48 m) or 150 ft (45.72 m) flat course. The choice of course length is at the organizers discretion. B. Acceleration Procedure Each team may make two (2) attempts. Scoring will be based on the better of the two attempts. Timing may be done using either electronic systems or stop watches.
www.bajasaeindia.org 46 | Page
C. Acceleration Penalties The organizer has the right to modify the penalties imposed for different violations to account for differences in the length or design of specific event courses.
False Start or Stall at Start : First False Start Second False Start Leaving Course : Disqualification Rerun at end Disqualification
D. Acceleration - Scoring If the time taken for acceleration by a team is more than twice that of the fastest car, it will not receive a score for this event. Teams attempting the event, but exceeding the time limit will be classified as Excess Time. The following equation will be used for the acceleration score: Acceleration score = 100 x [(T LongestT yours)/ (T LongestT Shortest)] Where: T Shortest is the fastest time by any team. T Longest is either a. The slowest time by any team or b. 2 times the fastest time, whichever is the shorter interval. T yours is the best time of your team. 6.2.2 Traction Event
The traction events are designed to demonstrate the vehicles ability to use its traction to accomplish various tasks. At the organizers discretion, the traction event will be either the hill climb or a pulling event.
www.bajasaeindia.org 47 | Page
If all of the teams succeed in completing a full climb, then the score will be based on the time of the climb and calculated by the following formula: Hill Climb Score = 100 x [(T LongestT yours)/ (T LongestT Shortest)] Where: T Longest is the longest time by any team. T Shortest is the shortest time by any team. T yours is the best time of your team. Method B: No One Climbs the Hill
If none of the vehicles succeeds in climbing the hill, then the score will be based on the distance each team climbs as determined by the following formula: Hill Climb Score = 100 x [(D yours D Shortest)/ (D LongestD Shortest)] Where: D Shortest is the shortest distance climbed by any team. D Longest is the longest distance climbed by any team. D yours is the best climb of your team. Method C: Some Teams Make the Climb
If at least one team makes the climb while other teams do not, then the vehicles making the climb (Group I) will be scored based on time and the vehicles that stop on the hill (Group II) will be scored based on distance traveled. Scoring will be by the following formulas:
www.bajasaeindia.org 48 | Page
Group I:
Score = 100 x (T Fastest / T yours) Where: T yours is your teams best time T Fastest is the fastest time by any team Group II: Teams that stop on the hill
Score = (Lowest score from Group I) x (D yours / D Hill) Where: D yours is the distance traveled by your vehicle. D Hill is the length of the hill from the starting point to the finish line.
Figure 38 6.2.2.2 Maneuverability Event A. Objective Maneuverability is designed to assess each vehicles suspension, handling and steering. The course may consist of a variety of suspension and handling challenges, at the organizers option, possibly including tight turns, pylon maneuvers, ruts and bumps, drop-offs, sand, rocks, gullies logs, and inclines.
www.bajasaeindia.org 49 | Page
B. Maneuverability Procedure Each vehicle may make two (2) runs with the best time, including penalties, counting for score. C. Maneuverability Penalty Default Values The organizer has the right to modify the penalties imposed for different violations to account for differences in the length or design of specific event courses. Obstacle/Pylon moved Missed gate* Deliberate course violation False Start : : : : 2 seconds 10 seconds Run disqualification First False Start Second False Start *Missed gate is when 2 or more wheels are outside the gate D. Maneuverability Time Limit Only vehicles that complete the maneuverability course within a time not exceeding two and half times (2.5X) that of the fastest vehicle will receive a score. If a vehicle is on the course for a time that exceeds twice the fastest time recorded to that point then the Event Captain may declare the attempt over, remove the car from the course and score the attempt as Excess Time. E. Maneuverability Scoring Maneuverability scoring is based on the vehicles time through the course including any penalties. Maneuverability Score = 100 x [(T LongestT yours)/ (T LongestT Shortest)] Where: T Longest is either (a) the longest time through the course by any team or (b) 2.5 x T Shortest whichever is the shorter time T Shortest is the shortest time through the course by any team T yours is your teams time through the course 6.3 PRACTICE ROUND One hour time will be dedicated to practice on endurance track those who have successfully completed Technical Inspection and Dynamic Event. Rerun at end Disqualification

6.4 Endurance Event 6.4.1 Endurance Objective The endurance event assesses each vehicles ability to operate continuously and at speed over rough terrain containing obstacles in any weather conditions. 6.4.2 Endurance - General Description Endurance run may be based upon either total time taken or total distance covered. Endurance events for time usually run for four (4) hours. Endurance events for distance continue until at least one car has gone the specified distance. Endurance will be run as one of the following(A) (B) (C) A single four (4) hour race, A predetermined and published distance, or Elimination heats followed by a final in which the total time of one elimination heat plus the final is 4 hours.
The organizer will announce the structure of the event prior to the start. Determining the winner of the endurance race: The team, which completes the distance of the competition first, or the greatest distance in the time set for the competition will be declared the winner. In competitions of a given distance, the checkered flag will be given first to the leading car, then to the other finishers as they cross the finish line. In competitions of a timed length, the checkered flag will be given first to the leading car as it crosses the finish line at or after the expiration of the specified duration, then to the other finishers as they cross the finish line. If the leading car is not running at the expiration of the time limit, the checkered flag will be given to the next highest running car in the same manner.
6.4.3 Endurance - Starting The starting grid for endurance will be based on each teams performance in a previous dynamic competition, or set of dynamic events, to be determined by the organizer. All vehicles will be considered to have begun the race simultaneously at the time when the starter releases the first vehicle onto the course regardless of their actual position in the grid.
www.bajasaeindia.org 51 | Page
6.4.4 Endurance Command Flags Command flags are just those flags which must be immediately followed by participants without any dissent. Green Flag (1) At a starting line or when re-entering the course: Your run, or session, has started; enter the course under the direction of the starter. (NOTE: If you stall the vehicle then restart and wait for another green flag as the opening in traffic may have closed.) (2) While running on the course: Course is clear, proceed. Yellow Flag, Steady Danger, SLOW DOWN, be prepared to take evasive action, something has happened beyond the flag station. NO PASSING, unless directed by the course workers. Yellow Flag, Waved Great danger, SLOW DOWN, evasive action is likely to be required, BE PREPARED TO STOP, something has happened beyond the flag station. NO PASSING, unless directed by the course workers. Red Flag Come to an immediate safe and controlled stop on the course. Pull to the side of the course as much as possible to keep the course open. Follow course worker directions. NO PASSING. Black Flag, Furled and Pointed Warning, the officials are watching your driving obey the event rules. Black Flag, Displayed ( 1) Pull into the penalty box for a discussion with the Director of Operations or other official concerning an incident. A time penalty may be assessed for the incident. (2) Pull into the penalty box for a mechanical inspection of your car, something has been observed that needs closer inspection. Checkered Flag Your run, or session, has been completed, exit the course at the first opportunity. 6.4.5 Endurance Stalled or Disabled Vehicles Disabled or stalled vehicles must be immediately removed from the roadway. It is d riv e r s responsibility to assist and cooperate with the course marshals in removing the vehicle. th e
Cars may only be started with the driver seated with all belts properly fastened. The driver may not exit the vehicle to execute a restart. Course marshals, volunteers or team members may assist drivers in restarting their vehicles. Officials and course marshals may stop any vehicle, at any time, if they believe it no longer complies with the requirements and restrictions of the rules. If a vehicle is stopped by officials for a mechanical fault, the fault must be corrected / repaired before it may reenter the event.
www.bajasaeindia.org 52 | Page
6.4.6 Endurance Repairs The organizer will announce the rules governing repairs that are permitted to be made during the endurance event. If repairs along the course are permitted then vehicles under repair must be removed well off the course, away from the outside of turns and away from any natural run-off areas. 6.4.7 Endurance Event Penalty Default Values The organizer has the right to modify the penalties imposed for different violations to account for differences in the length or design of the course Failure to stop for Black Flag Passing under a Yellow Flag Deliberate Ramming 10 minutes or 1 lap per flag* 1 lap penalty First time = 10 minutes Disqualification 10 minutes 20 minutes Disqualification
Second time = Deliberate Forcing another Vehicle off the course First time Second time Third time Leaving Course and Advancing Driving in an Unauthorized Area Failure to Yield to Traffic on Entering Track Speeding in Pit Area Fueling 5 minutes 10 minutes 5 minutes 5 minutes 30 minutes = = =
Fueling will not be allowed until the engine is turned off, the driver is out of the car, and a fire extinguisher is ready. No work will be done on the car when fueling. * whichever the official determines is the greater penalty. 6.4.8 Endurance Scoring A. General: The endurance event score is determined by (a) the number of laps each team completes during the endurance final and (b) the finish order of teams at the end of the event.
www.bajasaeindia.org 53 | Page
Scored laps are the number of full laps actually completed during the endurance event final. Only full the laps count, partial laps do not count for score. A vehicle must cross the counting/timing line under its own power for a lap to be counted. Finish order is the sequence in which vehicles cross the finish line after the lap scoring period has ended. Finish order determines the ranking of teams completing the same number of laps. For example, if the top four teams finish with the same number of laps, then they will be ranked 1st to 4th based on their finish order. Bonus points are additional points awarded to the first ten (10) vehicles on the leading (winning) lap, as separated by finish order as required, in part to differentiate teams finishing with the same number of scored laps. Up to 10 bonus points will be awarded in the inverse order of finish. Thus, the first vehicle to cross the finish line in the highest lap group will receive bonus points equal to the number of cars on the lead lap (max of 10); the second vehicle will receive one less bonus point etc. Endurance scoring is based on number of laps the vehicle completes in the allowed time: Endurance Score = [400 x (L YoursL Lowest)/ (L HighestL Lowest)] + bonus points Where: L Highest is the highest number of laps completed by any team. L Lowest is the lowest number of laps completed by any team. L Yours is the number of laps completed by your team. B. Endurance Heats plus a Final Point Distribution: When endurance is run as heats plus a final, the points for the event will be distributed between the heats and the final in proportion to the time/distance of each stage. Thus, if endurance is run as one (1) hour eliminations plus a three (3) hour final, the four hundred (400) total points will be allocated as one hundred (100) points to each elimination heat plus three hundred (300) points to the final. 6.4.9 Tie-breakers There will be no tiebreakers for static events. Tiebreakers for dynamic events will be the second best run time or score for the given tied event. If both scores for tied teams in the event are equal then the tie remains. Ties in the endurance race will be judged by the endurance event judge and may remain a tie. Ties for overall winner will be broken by the following criteria: Endurance score Total dynamic events score Total static events score If a tie remains after all the above tiebreakers then the tie remains for the overall winner(s).

Local Technical Inspection Rules / Violation Penalties for 2013 Names & contact details of Technical inspectors and their allotted colleges will be mailed/ put on the official BAJA 2013 website in January 2013. Allotted teams will directly contact the Technical Inspectors for mutually fixing Technical Inspection dates for the local level Technical Inspection. At least an early intimation of 20 days should be made by the teams so as the technical inspector can make necessary arrangement for visiting college campus for local inspection. At local level inspection, vehicle should conform to 100 percent Self Certification Check Sheet criteria; it also includes a Figure of 8 test and a panic brake test at the local level inspection. Any team, if found to have fabricated their vehicle using professional assistance or from a Standard kit would be liable for a penalty of 400 points or may be ineligible to compete. Failing the 100 % acceptance criteria at local level and confirmed by the Technical Inspector, the vehicle will not be allowed at the main event. Last date of technical inspection at college level will be 30 Jan 2013 and all the teams will adhere to the deadlines for inspection. The teams failing to above timelines automatically gets eliminated out of the BAJA 2013 event. Teams must retain the Original Technical Sheet /all the Documents of proof along with them only Teams will then submit these documents at the Main technical Inspection site at Indore only, failing which teams may be disqualified from the main event also. Only one re-inspection will be conducted during the main event, failing which the teams will be disqualified for the dynamic events. BAJA main Technical inspection will start one day prior to the Starting day of the Main event at the Pithampur site and no Technical inspection will be conducted on a later date. Teams shall be penalized with a minimum deduction of 50 points subject to the any Design modifications done after the conclusion of Static event. Teams unable to submit welding samples of adequate quality shall not be eligible to complete in any dynamic or endurance event.

APPENDIX 6
Baja SAE India Cost Report Cost consists of two related sections: Cost Report and Prototype Cost. The cost report provides all the background information to verify the vehicles actual cost. The prototype cost is the actual cost and the points related thereto. Cost Report The Cost Report may contain a maximum of three sections. A) Report Section 1 Overview (Optional) The optional overview is intended to give each team the opportunity to point out, and briefly comment on, any design features or fabrication processes that are innovative or are expected to result in significant cost savings. Teams may also use the overview to explain items or processes that might appear to be discrepancies within the report. The overview section is limited to a maximum of four (4) pages and is optional. This should be included as part of the Cost Documentation .pdf file. B) Report Section 2 Costing Sheets The core of the report is the series of costing sheets. This section must contain the one-page summary sheet broken up into the individual subsystems. Each subsystem needs an individual sub-assembly sheet (Form A). Note that Vehicle Assembly Labor cost is for the labor it takes to assemble a subassembly to the frame. All fabricated parts on the sub-assemblies sheets (Form A) require a Form B. Note that the subsystem assembly time is the time it takes to assemble all the parts in that assembly together. C) Report Section 3 Cost Documentation This section includes copies of receipts, invoices, price tags, catalog pages, on-line prices, or other documentation, to substantiate the costs of the parts and materials of any item costing more than Rs500. Cost documentation must be at full retail Indian prices. The use of foreign receipts is not allowed, in case a part or subassembly is procured from a country where the purchase was made in any other currency apart from Indian Rupees, the participants must use the exchange rate as specified in the currency conversion table in annexure and use that value in the documentation. Please note that taxes and shipping are excluded from the cost presented. The report is expected to be comprehensive, well documented, truthful and accurate. Cost Report Electronic Format Electronic version 1. The Microsoft Excel format (with the extension .xls(no macros) or .xlsx), using the supplied template posted on the Baja SAE India website. This document may not be modified from its current form. This includes password protecting and embedding macros. Teams will receive zero (0) points for Cost if the report is in the incorrect format or the files have been modified. 2. A PDF file with all of the cost documentation described above. The cost report file must be named as follows: Team ID (5 digits), school name (full name), and team name (if more than one vehicle is entered). For example: 00072 VIT University Kshatriya. Cost report Hard copy Teams must bring a hard copy of their cost report to the cost judges on site. Teams that fail to bring a hard copy to judging may receive zero (0) for their cost.
www.bajasaeindia.org 64 | Page
Penalty for Late or Non-Submission Cost reports arriving after the deadline will be penalized five (5) points per day up to a maximum of thirty-five (35) points. This penalty is for non evaluation of cost criteria, bill of material and prototype cost comparison in the event. Failure to submit a cost report will result in zero (0) points for the cost event. COMMENT: It is the responsibility of the team to verify when the report was received by SAE India; submission time will be the time the report is received at SAE India. Teams will be cost audited at event site itself (Pithampur). Cost Correction The judges may increase costs and/or fabrication times if they believe that the figures submitted are below current prices for the item, source, or process involved. Prices or times that are higher than the judge expects will not be corrected. Mathematical errors will be penalized. Reports that are highly inaccurate, highly incomplete, or in which the costs cannot be substantiated, may be rejected in their entirety and scored accordingly. Teams that are required to bring their car to on-site cost judging must do so by their scheduled appointment. Failure to report by the scheduled appointment time will result in an automatic zero for the event. If teams need to reschedule their appointment it must be done prior to their appointment. Prototype Cost Prototype cost is scored on the cost, as corrected by the judges, to produce the finished vehicle brought to the competition. Prototype cost score will be calculated as follows:
Cost Adjustment Form The purpose of the cost adjustment form is to make additions to previously submitted report. Items may be deleted, but the total adjustment for the individual component categories must be positive (cost will not be subtracted). This gives the team the chance to add items that were not previously planned. It is not an opportunity to redo the entire report. The total amount of adjustments may not exceed 10% of the total cost of the vehicle previously submitted. If the adjustment exceeds 10%, the additional amount will be added with a multiplier of 3 times (3x). If the adjustment exceeds 25%, the report will be considered incomplete and will not be graded. Cost Eligibility Teams that do not successfully pass technical inspection by 12:00 PM on the first day of dynamic events will not receive any points for prototype cost.
