The Competition
Carleton University's Ravens Racing competes in the Formula SAE series, which is a student design competition organized by SAE International. The concept behind Formula SAE is that a fictional manufacturing company has contracted a design team to develop a small formula style race car. The prototype race car is to be evaluated for its potential as a production item. The Formula SAE Series has been running since 1981, and features events in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Japan, Australia, and Brazil.
Ravens Racing has been competing in the Formula SAE Series since 1999. You can check out all our results here.
