York College Racing
The York College Race Team takes what mechanical, computer and electrical engineering students learn in the classroom out onto the track. This year, our incredible team members will design, build, and race a Formula SAE Car, Formula SAE Electric Car and a Baja SAE Car as part of capstone design projects. They'll compete against other college students from around the world who have all built cars from the ground up, spending hours upon hours painstakingly calculating every aspect of the vehicle and fabricating it, all according to Formula SAE rules (Formula SAE is an international student design program).
They can't do it alone. Donations help make this all possible. All donations will directly fund the costs associated with building the vehicles, such as the fabrication material, contractor bills, commercial parts, and assembly components (nuts, bolts, wire, etc.), and a portion of the travel expenses. Non-monetary donations (welding, fabricating, laser or water-jet cutting, etc.) are also welcome.

YCP racing team is part of the Capstone Design project. Capstone Design is a two part course taken in the engineering students senior year that spans over two semesters. This years YCP racing team have chosen the FSAE and the Baja competition projects.
