May 2016 - first sae competition
We had a history of excellence on our on-campus races and we were ready to take our skills to the next level by getting involved in a more rigorous competition. We spend a total of two year designing and building a formula-style electric race car from the group up. In May 2016, we competed in the Formula Hybrid (Electric Only Category) even in Louden, New Hampshire. We placed 3rd out of 12 international teams in the electric drive class and also received two prestigious professionalism awards: the General Motors Spirit of Formula Hybrid Award and the Flat Chrysler Automobiles Gracious Professionalism Award.
