Brothers Sarkar, Shen, and CWRU Motorsports win first place overall at Baja SAE New York

Earlier this summer, Brother Uddalak Sarkar (2028) and Brother Andrew Shen (2029) joined other members of CWRU Motorsports to compete in the Baja SAE New York event. The team competed against other teams from over 100 other colleges and universities to show that their off-road vehicle is the best.

The CWRU Motorsports vehicle, SR26, was tested in five different dynamic events, including a four hour endurance race, as well as a number of static events evaluating the design and engineering process of the vehicle.

Ultimately, the CWRU Motorsports vehicle took second in the suspension event, third in the four hour endurance race, and fourth in the design presentation. Those, combined with strong overall showing in other events was enough to push them above the other contenders to an overall first place finish at the event.

Congratulations to Brothers Sarkar and Shen and the rest of the CWRU Motorsports team!
