BroncoFusion 2011

BroncoFusion 2011


 

Hey everyone!  Hopefully everyone has enjoyed their Summer and is ready for the start of a new year at Cal Poly Pomona!

Formula SAE Team will be attending the Club Fair during the evening at BroncoFusion with the 2011 Season car for everyone to see!  You will get to see first hand the car that had hours upon hours of hard work put into it through out the 2011 season.

 

Don’t have any experience with cars or competing?  Don’t worry, that is what this club is intended for.  We develop and learn as a Team.  So if your interested, come and sign up!

Also, don’t assume that this club is only for Engineering Majors, we accept any Major as long as your interested in the club.  Keep in mind, however, that this isn’t a club that you join just to Drive and Race the car.  It’s a club where a group of competitive members get together to design, manufacture, test, and compete a Formula car (remember this isn’t Formula 1).  This club is intended to expand what you learn in class (also to learn more than what your classes will teach).  The Driving is a reward after having a successful year with the Team.

Anyways, we hope to see you at the Fair!
