The Presentation

Auto racing is a combination of driver skill and vehicle capabilities. This presentation will focus on high performance driving techniques used in road racing, autocross and performance driving.

 

The Design Challenge

After the high performance driving presentation, the goals and rules of the Automotive Engineering Design Challenge will be presented. Teams of 4-5 will be created that are a mix of SAE students, professional SAE members, and other guests. Each team will be allowed to choose from a variety of (somewhat random) supplies to build their prototype, within an allotted time. Once the prototypes are constructed, there will be a competition to decide the winning design.

 

This will be a fun event and a great networking opportunity for students and professionals alike!

 

Our Speaker

Corey Dyck is a Mechanical Engineering graduate of the U of Manitoba. While working in the heavy-duty transit industry, he's pursued amateur motorsports as a passion for over 20 years now. Corey has won a few Canadian National Championships and has placed in the top 10 in US National competitions in his chosen sport of autocross. He's created, refined, and instructed at a local autocross racing school that has helped hundreds of drivers reach their personal goals in amateur motorsports over the past 20+ years. 

 

Student Recognition

SAE Manitoba would like to recognize the world-class UMSAE student organization here in Manitoba. Together, they form one of the largest student member groups in the world. This event celebrates their participation in SAE, their contribution to the industry, and their role in the development of the engineering function in society, and gives them a networking opportunity with professional SAE MB members. It also gives the professional members a chance to show their support for the students by contributing to this event.
