ONU students design, build, test, and race a Baja car. And, they do it as a club...no academic credit...just the joy of learning and competing.

A couple of years ago the local team ranked third in points on the international level. The Baja Race Series has more than 100 teams and is sanctioned by the Society of Automotive Engineers. 

In April and May they will race in three states from coast to coast. Working on the project is open to all students, although civil and mechanical engineering students seem to be in the majority.

Team members include (front row, from left) Kyle Matel, Max Adams, Dylan Wyatt, (back) Tyler Kauffman, Tyler Rinehart, James Mong.
