Latest Updates
New Hardware - Computer
The UW Formula Motorsports team has just taken delivery of their new hardware. A new computer to be used in our team bay (E5-1009) for CAD, FEA and CFD simulations and Youtube...
The old computer was getting really slow (and could not properly render any CAD other than NX5) so we decided to upgrade to something with a little more oomph. A dedicated workstation graphics card, new Intel processor, and new monitor will have our team back up to full design capacity quickly.
UWFM @ KW Oktoberfest
Yesterday the team braved the cold, rain and wind and brought the car to the annual K-W Oktoberfest car show. There were around two dozen other cars in attendance for the show despite the weather. Many thanks to everyone who came and talked with us or asked us questions about the F2010.5 racecar throughout the day.
Representing our school, our racecar and most importantly our sponsors is one way the team continues to give back to those who enable us to build a world-class racecar.
Finally, many thanks to the organizers of the K-W Oktoberfest Car Show.

The 2012 team kicks-off racing season at Mosport
The team kicked off their 2012 racing season with a FSAE shootout with other teams at the Mosport International Raceway Driver Development Track. It was a great experience for the team, especially to all the new members who joined the team this year. Thank you to everyone who participated in the event and our sponsors who made this possible.
