We’ve all heard it before: It takes a village.
This is a story like so many others. It starts with a few guys sitting around late at night, bench racing the what-ifs and how-tos of going fast with little time and limited funds. A barely achievable goal is set, a tight timeline is decided upon, and a build begins. Friends and onlookers start to help, and the project gains momentum.
This particular village centers around Jack and Jarrett, college students who are part of a Formula SAE team. One night, soon after competing at FSAE Lincoln, they started contemplating a fun summer project with a few of their teammates.
