Current Projects

 

Baja ’25

Upon completion of the September 2024 competition, the Baja team will begin a complete rebuild with hopes of being able to compete in May of 2025 with a brand new car. This car will feature a new frame design as well as a modified drivetrain with a focus on weight and size reduction. One of the major benefits to the redesign of this vehicle includes a full returning group of upperclassmen. By combining the multiple years of experience with the recently obtained knowledge from competitions, this team looks to build one of the most successful cars Binghamton Motorsports has ever seen.

Formula EV2 ’25

In June of 2024, we completed our first electric car. We gained valuable experience throughout the process, and our team is excited to begin work on our next project, EV2. This new car will be our most advanced yet, featuring significant performance improvements. With the knowledge and expertise from previous competitions, we are confident that EV2 will bring us closer to securing a top spot in the next FSAE Michigan competition, proving that Binghamton Motorsports is a serious contender on the world stage.

Active Projects

Formula EV1 ‘24 (#229/#253)

EV1, our new generation electric vehicle, was developed over two years and debuted at FSAE EV Michigan in June 2024. Although it didn’t reach the track, we made significant progress by completing most electrical and mechanical inspections, an impressive feat for a first-year team. Now, we are using EV1 to test and refine our designs, paving the way for future innovations.

Baja ’24 (#115/#58)

Beginning in 2022, Baja ’24 was built from scratch to improve on past designs. After two years of hard work, it competed for the first time in May 2024, successfully passed technical inspection, and drove on the track. It was then revamped for the September 2024 competition with reduced mass, and a tuned transmission and suspension. This put us in the spotlight alongside some of the best teams.

“Rose II” Formula IC ‘22 (#79)

Unveiled in 2022, Rose II, also known as “Green Car,” the successor to Rose I, featuring a Kawasaki 650 engine and custom paddle shifters, marked a significant advancement in our combustion vehicle lineup. Both cars honor our late Chief Engineer, Andrew Desiderio. Rose II debuted at FSAE Michigan in May 2022 and placed 2nd in the combustion autocross at the 2024 Watkins Glen Green Grand Prix.
