About BAJA Competetion:

Baja SAE INDIA is a national level competition that simulates real-world engineering design projects and their related challenges. Engineering students are tasked to design, build, test and race a single-seated off-road vehicle that will survive the severe punishment of rough terrain at Pithampur in February 2013.

The objective of the competition is to provide SAE student members with a challenging project that involves the planning and manufacturing tasks found when introducing a new product in the consumer market. Students design the Baja car as if it is a prototype for a company, so cost, appearance, reliability, and performance all become key factors in judging. Rule guidelines place restrictions on the engine and frame, testing the imagination, knowledge, and creativity of the students.

The competition is divided in three stages:

Static Events

Students describe in detail the methods used to design the car, and covers all car systems from Chassis to Safety. Safety/Technical inspections also take place.

Dynamic Events

Involve tests such as acceleration, suspension/traction, hill climbing and land and water manoeuvrability.

Endurance Race

The highlight of the competition which lasts typically 4 hours or 100 miles. A track with a wide variety of natural and man-made obstacles is specially created for the size and speed of a typical Baja car.
