UConn’s Formula SAE Race Car Has Its Best Year In Competition

The UConn car competed against 120 teams from 9 countries at the Michigan International Speedway in Michigan last week

Here’s the UConn Formula SAE Race Car and the team that competed against 120 teams from nine countries at the Michigan International Speedway in Michigan last week. Always getting fsae photobetter, the UConn team finished 19th overall, surpassing the placement of last year’s team by one notch. And it was the 14th fastest car in the grueling 20-lap final endurance event. This is the fifth year that the Formula SAE team has competed in the international competition. The team looks forward to building a new, improved car and raising the bar for the 2016 competition.

Well done, UConn FSAE team, and congratulations to advisor Thomas Mealy!
