Send Terps Racing EV to Formula SAE Electric Competition!

Our donation page remains open until January 2nd, 2026.

Help our Terps go fast. 
Support a new generation of engineers. 
ROLL TERPS!

Who You're Supporting
We're a team of undergraduate students spending our free time designing and building a car to compete. Why? We want to become better engineers. Our Terps get their hands dirty with hands-on experience that sets us up to land internships and become engineering leaders.

Our Accomplishments & the Competition
Last season, we successfully competed in dynamic events: Acceleration, Skidpad, and Endurance -- a major milestone demonstrating reliability and performance! We placed 17th in Acceleration at the FSAE EV Competition and 4th in Engineering Design at the Formula Hybrid+Electric Competition amongst well-established teams that have been winning for years. To keep up this momentum, we need your help.

Why Support Us?
This year, funding cuts have left us unable to afford to attend the Formula Hybrid+Electric competition in April. We know that we can deliver even better competition results this year: we're on track to have a fully-built car in February, ahead of last year, giving us more time for testing and tuning. Without your support, we risk being unable to also afford the Formula SAE Electric competition this year. Let's keep up the momentum. Donate to help us place even stronger this year!

Where Your Donation Goes
Donations will fund registration fees ($2,500), travel, tools, and car parts. So you know exactly how much we appreciate your donation, we're keeping a running list of everything we pay for with donations posted on our website.
