Great Start To The Year

The second meeting of the semester saw the addition of 24 new people in addition to returning 2011-2012 members. We hope to continue that growth and introduce everyone to design, solid modeling, finite element analysis, manufacturing practices, public speaking, driving, marketing, community service, fundraising and teamwork while building a top ranked formula car.
