We are a student-operated organization with the goal of engineering and fabricating a small, formula-style, open-wheeled race car. Our current focus is on the manufacturing of FK08, our latest and greatest, to compete in Michigan in May 2026!
We have a large engineering team, totaling nearly 50 members across 5 different subsystems that focus on designing different aspects of the car. Members gain experience in a hands-on design and manufacturing environment following industry standards, which translates into real-world degrees that give the students a competitive edge in and outside of the classroom and industry! At competition, we put our car through various trials, including acceleration, skid-pad, autocross, and endurance. We also present our designs to industry experts for a scored review. In addition to the engineering aspect of the team, we also have a business case presentation that is applied to our final competition score. Our business subsystem organizes competition logistics, plans team events, obtains sponsorships, and manages business-related aspects of the team as a whole.
