MEET OUR TEAM

Husker Motorsports is a student-run organization at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. We are comprised of 45 students ranging from freshmen to graduate students. The team designs, constructs, and races an open wheel formula style race car in one of the world's largest design competitions, Formula SAE. Overall, approximately 500 teams from around the world participate in the program, with around 150 of those teams coming from North America. 

Students participating in our program receive valuable insights into both the engineering and business aspects of design. Additionally, our program allows these students to communicate and network with companies and other individuals with whom we work. As a result, participating in Formula SAE gives students the experience and knowledge to help them prosper in their chosen career path. ​
