Hello everyone!
We are currently in the process of designing a new website over at www.dalfsae.ca. We intend for this to be the main hub for information on the car, the competitions we partake in, our sponsors, our team roster and more. Please check it out. Thank you!
Hello fellow Dalhousie students, sponsors, and supporters!
Already two and a half months in to the season, we would like to take this time to update everyone on what we’re up to. We have officially registered as car number 88 for FSAE Michigan! Spots sold out within minutes, and we are excited to participate in this amazing event yet again. Last year we finished 60th overall in Michigan and 20th overall in UK, and we hope to improve on these placings this year.
As the FSAE Michigan approaches, we are once again looking for sponsors to support us. For more info, our new sponsorship and fundraising package can be found on the ‘Sponsorship” tab. We are also always more than happy to welcome aboard any individuals to help with marketing, branding, video compilation, editing, engineering, ergonomics and sponsorship!
Please take the time to follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook and subscribe to us on twitter!
