About FSAE[edit | edit source]
Formula SAE (FSAE) challenges teams to design a small Formula-style race car based on a series of rules and are evaluated for its potential as a production item. The competition encompasses two main categories; static and dynamic events. The static events consist of engineering design, marketing presentations, cost and manufacturing analysis, as well as technical inspection. The dynamic events include acceleration, autocross, endurance and skid pad.
