The people behind the car
Terps Racing is the University of Maryland’s student-run motorsports team. Its Formula SAE program brings design, fabrication, testing, and racing together in a student-built car.
Our shared photo story goes behind the bodywork. In the workshop, team members use Teslong thermal cameras and borescopes to take a closer look at vehicle components—the hands-on work behind the finished car.
Inside the workshop
A thermal view brings another perspective to the components in front of the team. These workshop photographs show the camera in use, with the image visible on screen.
A camera probe and handheld display bring a closer view to the workshop. Follow the team’s inspection process through the original photographs.
Behind every student-built race car is a group of people turning engineering ideas into something they can build, test, and drive.
From curiosity to engineering
The finished car is only part of the story. Look inside the workshop to see the people, tools, and small details behind a student engineering project.
