Baja Racing@ ANDREWS

Engineering excellence on and off the track

About

Baja Racing at Andrews turns engineering concepts into race-ready machines. Students design, build, and test an off-road vehicle from the ground up, gaining hands-on experience in engineering, manufacturing, and teamwork.

Our newest vehicle, AUBR-3, marks a new chapter for the program. Named as the third Baja car built at Andrews University, AUBR-3 is the university’s first Baja vehicle in 13 years and represents the return of Baja racing to Andrews. The team competes in SAE International’s Baja SAE, an intercollegiate engineering competition that challenges university teams to design, build, and race durable off-road vehicles.
