Formula Hybrid, held in early may at NHMS, has grown out of the Formula SAE collegiate design competition. In both competitions students design and construct formula style race cars. Formula SAE cars are small with a minimum wheelbase of 60in. and maximum engine size of 600cc. Formula Hybrid takes this design problem one step further by making the cars electric-internal combustion hybrids. At the competition the students get judged on their cars in categories such as cost and overall design, but the best part these cars are actually driven. And better yet, driven in anger. The students get to take the vehicles they've spent the past year building and compete in timed events. This is where the NER and You come in!
