Every year students at Missouri University of Science and Technology build a formula race car and compete with 140 other universities at the Silverdome in Detroit. Follow the UMR car as it is put through its paces and goes on to the big race.

@omarbog4 they don't teach it in any univeristy, it's a club you can join on campus and ther is no instructor, it is designed, built, and raced all by students, I am in SAE on the Formula team at my school :)

I am always compelled just to see these college students create these cars and race these cars to the best of their ability. Doesn't matter if you represent Missouri-Rolla, New Mexico, California State-Northridge, Monash, Michigan, RPI... this is always amazing stuff. I really admire colleges and their students taking part in something like this.
