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.
