This plan included adding new technical features to our vehicle design; most notably an aerodynamics package consisting of a front wing, rear wing, and an underbody tray. We were successful in many of the new initiatives we tried, however a few decisive challenges kept our vehicle from shining at competition. After numerous revisions to our exhaust system, we eventually passed the sound test and were able to achieve remarkable lap times in both the autocross and endurance events. However, we were unable to complete the endurance event due to inadequate cooling capacity. The combination of these events led to a 57<sup>th<\/sup> overall placing.<\/p>\n<p>We have not let this result quench our eagerness to build an amazing racecar.
