For ASME, the team builds the partially faired upright bike Zephyr. The design features front and rear fairings inline with the rider's torso, significant use of prepreg carbon, streamlined frame and wheel sections, and a wide range of positional adjustment. The vehicle was again tested and ride-logged before competition and performed smoothly throughout competition. Zephyr took first place in both Men's and Women's drag events and dominated the Endurance event, lapping the second place vehicle seven times.

Calvin starts a new project for a two seater speedbike, Titan. The design is similar in many ways to a scaled up Eta prime. The vehicle is not quite finished in time to leave for WHPSC but the team brings it along and finishes it by Wednesday night. On Friday night Calvin and Evan push Titan to 120.27 km/h (74.73 mi/h) and set a new world tandem record.
