could add:
- Advantages
- Disadvantages
- hardpoints
- composite techniques
- what this means for SES
- Common places to have the composite tub/tube frame split
- Impact on weight dist/stiffness between the parts
p sure these all kinda fit into what Toaster said, just expanding a bit

All of these ideas sounds awesome! I tried looking through my old photos, but I don't have anything relevant.
Would a tube frame with bonded composite panels be considered a hybrid chassis? There are ways of SES-ing it as a tube frame, but the panels are structural, so I'm a bit torn.
we did this my senior year and submitted it as a tube frame, but im not to confident about the details, i know we still had steel side impact members. in my (close to 0 chassis experience) opinion, I think if you can submit the SES as a tube frame, its fair to cover under tube frame
