The purpose of the team is to teach high school students real world applications with hands on engineering and teamwork. We build 3-wheeled racing machines from the ground up and are capable of achieving 400 MPG. We also create electric cars that are capable of going over 30 miles on a single charge. Our team competes in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa. A few of the main tracks we race at are Fox Valley Technical College, Autobahn Country Club, and Road America. There are 60 teams that participate in these races. We are the largest team and rated as the top competitor in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa. We have eleven cars and over 30 team members. One of the fastest growing teams in the Midwest.
