After two years of development, UCSD SAE’s TR-9 debuted at the 2009 Formula California Competition in Fontana, California. The car, which was originally planned to be entered into the same competition a year ago, suffered from last minute complications and had to be withdrawn. This time around the car was in top condition going up to competition and performed admirably.

Pictures from the event are shown below:
