🚗💨 Engines roared, dust flew, and futures were forged in Marana at this year’s Baja SAE competition! 🔧🔥 68 college teams from across North America rolled into the desert with their custom-built, single-seat off-road vehicles — ready to race, break down, fix up, and do it all again. 💥👨‍🔧👩‍🔧 This isn’t just a race. It’s real-world engineering. Every car runs the same engine — so it’s not about speed, but skill, creativity, and problem-solving under pressure. From breakdowns mid-race to welding in the heat, these students aren’t just learning — they’re living engineering. 🛠️🏁 Hosted on the rugged fields of the Marana Pumpkin Patch, the competition brought hundreds of visitors and a strong sense of community, collaboration, and high-octane fun. 🏜️🌵 Next year marks 50 years of Baja SAE — and after this weekend, the future of engineering looks louder, faster, and brighter than ever. ⚙️💡 @baja_sae_international @townofmarana @jtspive @cornelluniversity @johnshopkinsu @uari...
