HMS // 2022
HMS 22 is the 11th car produced by Husker Motorsports and embodies the teams continuous pursuit of excellence. HMS 22 has built on the foundation that was laid by Husker 19, broke team records, and achieved the highest overall finish to date. The team worked to further improve our own custom decoupled heave/roll suspension that the previous years had started, competing aggressively with new, off the shelf solutions from Multimatic. The fourth year of aerodynamics package continued to improve and saw improved downforce from HMS 21. HMS 22 saw two FSAE competitions in Michigan and is the first car from Husker Motorsports to race in SCCA Solo Nationals.
