Tower Fasteners is pleased to announce their sponsorship of Stony Brook Motorsports, an organization first established in 1987 for Stony Brook University students to take part in real-world engineering design projects sanctioned by SAE International (Society of Automotive Engineers).
Still continuing today, each year Stony Brook Motorsports students from a variety of academic backgrounds, standings, and experience work together to design, build and test an off-road vehicle which they will then race in the Baja SAE competition against hundreds of college students from around the world. This exciting project sees to it that team members develop skills in design, manufacturing, electronics and even business, as the students must also manage the administrative and financial aspects of a project of this scale.
Tower Fasteners considers it a privilege to support Stony Brook Motorsports by donating our first-rate fastener products for students to use in the building of their vehicles. We wish them much success, and applaud their ambitions to follow their engineering pursuits while working to balance their academic coursework responsibilities.
