Bring your 2026 Formula SAE car. Test it. Tune it. Learn from the experts.
SAE International's FSAE Test, Tune & Teach is a hands-on development event designed to help Formula SAE teams maximize the performance and reliability of their current 2026 competition vehicle while gaining valuable insights for the 2027 season. Teams competing with Internal Combustion (IC) and Electric Vehicle (EV) platforms will have the opportunity to complete a technical inspection, participate in dedicated track sessions on two autocross courses, and receive personalized feedback from Formula SAE judges and industry experts.
Whether you're preparing for next season, validating new design changes, or working through technical challenges, the FSAE Test, Tune & Teach provides an ideal environment to learn and improve. Even teams whose vehicles did not pass technical inspection at a Formula SAE competition are encouraged to attend with their 2026 vehicle for one-on-one mentoring, technical guidance, and educational sessions designed to help build a stronger, more competitive car for 2027.
Registration is FREE for student teams. Participation will be limited to 40 teams. Because space is limited and registration is free, we ask that only teams committed to attending register for this opportunity.
To support this pilot format, meals will not be provided for student teams, except for one evening networking reception for participants.
