Bronco Trailer
A few weeks ago (homecoming weekend) I was at Kalamazoo Speedway as my kids were running in a Vores series race. I was going through my photos from the weekend and came across this picture of a WMU trailer my son snapped in the pits. Never got a chance to get over and talk to anyone at the end of either day, and have no idea why it was there. The only race car I know of involving WMU is the sunseeker in the annual solar competition.
It’s a neat looking trailer. Anyone know anything about it? Has a decal for a WMU formula racing team.

RE: Bronco Trailer
Interesting OKGC. Had not heard of them. Baja buggies were not running that weekend, so still a mystery why it was there.

RE: Bronco Trailer
Actually there's two teams. Baja runs off road vehicles, and the formula SAE team builds track cars. Id post some more info but I'm on my phone.

RE: Bronco Trailer
The WMU SAE Racing Team features both a formula racer and baja racer. Both are built and raced by students. I'm guessing this was their trailer.
