Aerodynamicists run CFD and validate in wind tunnels. The electronics team designs custom motor controllers and battery management systems from the PCB up. The mechanical team lays up carbon fiber monocoques by hand. Operations handles sponsorships, logistics, and competition strategy.
Members, including first-years, don't watch. They own.
CFD simulation, wind tunnel testing, FEA simulation, mold design, and carbon fiber layup.
Custom motor controllers, power management, telemetry, and firmware. If it carries current, this team designed it
Steering, braking, wheels, drivetrain, and anything that moves. All mass-optimized through simulation.
Sponsor relations, budgeting, competition logistics, and telling the team's story.
Our drivers execute the strategy models lap after lap.
New members machine parts, populate PCBs, and lay up carbon within weeks of joining.
Alumni have gone on to top engineering companies and graduate programs, and have published peer-reviewed papers on our vehicles.
Mechanical, electrical, CS, physics, environmental science, public policy: an efficient car needs aerodynamicists and accountants. No prior experience required; we teach everything.
