40 It’ s coming . . . The Samuel Ginn College of Engineering at Auburn University will host the 2009 Baja SAE Alabama competition, April 16-19. This premier engineering student design competition, sanctioned by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), will feature 100 collegiate teams from across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, India and Venezuela. This is the second time Auburn has hosted the competition. Each university’s team must design and build, from scratch, a single-seat off-road race car. Teams will be judged for their vehicle design and manufacturing plan, and must then demonstrate their vehicle’s speed, traction, and maneuverability across demanding terrain. The last day of the competition will feature a four-hour, wheel-to-wheel endurance race. Visitors are welcome, so add the date to your calendar and secure a volunteer spot by signing up online.
