Saint Joseph Street • Rapid City, SD 57701-3995 Phone: (605) 394-6082/2554 • Fax: (605) 394-6177 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 3, 2004 Contact: Steve Buchholz, Public Information Manager, 394-6082 Local Student A Member Of Mini-Baja Team Michael Carter, of Custer, was a member of the South Dakota Tech Mini-Baja team that recently returned from a competition that tested the team's ability to design, fabricate and race an off-road vehicle. Carter is majoring in Metallurgical Engineering at Tech, an engineering and science university in Rapid City, S.D. The South Dakota Tech Mini Baja team finished in seventh place overall in the 2004 Society of Automotive Engineers Mini Baja West competition held in Portland, Ore. The team also finished second in the rock crawl event and 10th in the acceleration event. Tech competed against more than 85 engineering design teams from colleges across the United States, Mexico and Canada. The Baja cars were judged on design, cost and safety. Teams gave presentations about their cars, and showed off their performance during hill climb, maneuverability and acceleration events. The Baja cars and drivers were also put to the test during the four-hour endurance race over rugged terrain that tested the durability of each vehicle. Mini Baja simulates real-world engineering design projects and their related challenges. Engineering students are tasked to design and build an off-road vehicle that will survive the severe punishment of rough terrain. The object of the competition is to provide students with a challenging project that involves the planning and manufacturing tasks found when introducing a new product to the consumer industrial market. #30#South Dakota Tech News 501 E.
