Husker 19 is the 8th car produced by Husker Motorsports and has truly outdone its predecessors. This car helped pave the way to a record breaking year for Husker Motorsports. Husker 19 features a completely redesigned steel tube chassis that is optimized for different loadings throughout the car. This was our first car that successfully implemented front and rear wings to produce plenty of downforce. The front and rear suspension were designed with independent front and rear dampers to complement the lightweight corner assemblies. To resolve previous cooling issues, Husker 19 incorporated a side mounted radiator and oil cooler. A Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R 636 provided 96 horsepower to the wheels, which greatly contributed to our success in the acceleration event . Husker 19 was our first car that completed an endurance race, not only in Michigan, but also in Lincoln. It also took us to our first design finals and placed in the top 10 at the Lincoln competition, two things that had never been done by Husker Motorsports before.
