Power of Ethanol - SDSMT SAE Series
Then there's the Formula SAEŽ (Society of Automotive Engineers) Series competition.
In conjunction with the South Dakota Corn Utilization Council, POET sponsors the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (SDSMT) ethanol-fueled SAE entry, the Formula "Hardrocker" racing team.
The event challenges teams of university students to design and fabricate small, Indy-style racing cars. The cars are judged in a series of static and dynamic events including engineering design, cost, presentation, solo performance and high performance track endurance.
Very few E-85-fueled cars have been entered in the competition. But with the growing recognition of ethanol as a high-performance renewable fuel - not to mention the close-to-home appeal for the SDSMT - the Formula "Hardrocker" racing team wanted to take the lead designing a vehicle to compete specifically with ethanol.
