History
1989
With substantially more funding, on-campus recognition, and student participation, the 1989 team took up the challenge of entering two cars in the next competition. A new and improved car was designed and built while the winning car from the previous year was slightly modified and further developed. However, Cornell's competition was also progressing rapidly and new innovations such as monocoque frames, fuel injection, turbocharging, and composite materials were seen at the 1989 competition. Cornell's best effort was awarded with a respectable third place overall finish.
The Story
Cornell’s FSAE Racing Team was established in 1986. Professor Albert R. George became the faculty advisor overseeing approximately a dozen mechanical engineering students who began researching and designing a racecar from scratch. Since then, the team has grown substantially and has been greatly diversified. Today, an average Cornell FSAE team is compromised of about 40 undergraduate and graduate students and has had participating members from nearly every school within Cornell. Below you will find the 21 year evolution of Cornell Racing. The team’s dedication, commitment, and tireless effort will help to continue Cornell’s winning tradition well into the future.
