Though the crash was a learning experience for the team, the main objective of competing in the Energy Invitation was accomplished. I was hoping that our accomplishments would be the focus of this article. Instead, the real focus of this article is on the miscalculation of one individual. Also, it is my belief that the article is describing a level of incompetence on the behalf of the UCI FSAE Engineering Team. In fact, almost a year of design and manufacturing was needed to properly tune and calibrate it. I am greatly disappointed by the content in the article.

This article should have been dedicated to our success and hard work, not some little mishap. Our team worked our asses off for a year to build not only one, but two race car platforms.This article is full of lies and deception. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about and should have never been allowed near our lab. Set your ego aside and have some pride in your school. Next time do your homework before your write another misleading article full of denigrative lies.
