Project description:

Formula Racing at UC Davis is an on‐campus student‐run organization, focused on the research and development of electric‐powered vehicles. The club consists of undergraduate mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and business students, who strive to take their skills learned in the classroom and apply them to create a more environmentally responsible type of transportation. This is done primarily through the engineering of electric vehicles and investigations into advancing the technology required for electric vehicles. Formula Racing at UC Davis seeks to accomplish their mission through their three goals of engaging students, developing successful race cars, and supporting our community and environment.
