This is the picture of the team leaders. Right now we are designing Viking 35, a car that we hope will take us to victory. Formula cars at Western Washington University are built entirely using funds and donations, and any help is greatly appreciated in the form of financial, material, or technical help. We do our best to keep our sponsors informed and as involved as they would like to be. If you would like to help us out, please contact our Project Manager, James Waltman, by email: waltmaj@cc.wwu.edu or Phone: (360)650-3045
