Hail to the Baja Racing team!
After a tough, muddy race, the Michigan Baja team took third at the Baja SAE competition this weekend in Wisconsin. The team placed third in acceleration, second in cost and first in endurance, pretty much known as the hardest part of the whole deal. Congrats to our muddy #MichiganEngineers. Go Blue!
