Hartford Racing<br />

Bulldog Racing is a small and young team in the FSAE competition. This year we<br />

have completed a full redesign of the previous UMD car and produced the BR16,<br />

a lighter, quicker, and more agile car than UMD has had in the past.<br />

The team began driving the car in early March which has allowed time to test all<br />

aspects of the car. We hope with ample time behind the wheel we can complete<br />

each event at competition and set a new benchmark in the standings for UMD.<br />

The University of Hartford’s 2016 entry is the first iteration of a completely<br />

redesigned vehicle. It features a redesigned frame, suspension system, and usertailored<br />

ergonomics.<br />

We would like to make a special thank you to all of the alumni whose shoulders<br />

we stood on to achieve everything we have been able to this year. We would also<br />

like to thank the fantastic sponsors who go out of their way to work with us.<br />

We are hoping our current car design will be a good base model and with rigorous<br />

testing & tuning we can slowly improve the car and produce a highly competitive<br />

vehicle in future years.<br />
