CMR Promotional Video 2009

Carnegie Mellon Racing held its annual Informational Meeting on Monday, September 8, 2008. Over 80 new faces arrived to learn about the organization and the Formula SAE competition.

The Info Meeting started with a brand new promotional video (view above) and then featured a keynote on the structure of the team, the systems of the car, and the details of the Formula SAE competition.

With recent rule changes and one of the smallest number of returning students to Carnegie Mellon Racing, the team is faced with it's most ambitious season yet. With a complete re-design of the car including the chassis and suspension setup, a brand new body and overall "style" and many systems that are planned to be designed to much higher standards than previous generations of our cars.

An increased effort to expand the club into all departments and interests across campus will hopefully lead to new talent that will greatly improve the quality and performance of our 2009 design, build and race season.

The small group of returning members have already been designing and planning the course of the 2009 car in order to facilitate a well organized design and build environment for new members. Read entire article
