Memorial Baja SAERacing Team

Sponsorship Info

Memorial Baja SAE is a group thirteen Memorial

University students working together to meet the

various demands encountered in building an off-

road racing vehicle. From marketing to advanced

engineering design, students are challenged and

ultimately brought together in a positive learning

experience.

Our goal is to compete this summer at the Mid-

Western Baja hosted by the Society of Automotive

Engineers (SAE) in Montreal.

Who We Are

A Baja SAE vehicle is a single seat off-road

racer. They typically weigh in under 500lbs and

are capable of speeds up to 50 km/h. All teams

are supplied with a 10hp Briggs and Stratton

Engine, and the rest of the vehicle is designed

and built from the ground up.

The CompetitionEach year the Society of Automotive Engineers hosts

three Baja competitions in different regions of North

America. The competition is designed to simulate real

world engineering project of designing an off-road vehi-

cle capable of handling all types of rough terrain.

In June 120 team from around the globe will square off

in Montreal to compete against one another in this three

day event.

The competition is broken up into two components.

Static Events

The static events consist of a thorough safety inspection

followed by a vehicle design presentation for the judges. Our

vehicle!s design and financial records are scored based on

quality and application of sound engineering practices.

Dynamic Events

These events consist of short performance events and an

endurance race. Short events can range from a variety of

challenges that test suspension and traction, such as rock

crawling, hill climbing and drag racing. The endurance test is

a grueling four hour event that pushes car and driver to the

limit.
