Design, Build, Race!

Aztec Baja Racing is the Baja SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) team at San Diego State University. Baja SAE is an international collegiate competition that challenges students to design, build, and race a 10hp offroad buggy each year.  We compete in three US competitions during the spring semester that include a sales presentation, a design presentation, an acceleration trial, an obstacle trial, and a 4 hour endurance race. Competing against 100+ international teams, Aztec Baja earned 12th overall at Baja SAE California, 10th overall at Baja SAE Tennessee, and 3rd overall at Baja SAE Rochester (a team record!) in 2019.  These results pushed the team to a 5th place finish in the Mike Schmidt Memorial Championship standings.
Our engineers take the theoretical knowledge they gain in their classes and apply it to the real world, designing and machining most of the car from scratch in SDSU's machine shop. Through Mini Baja, many students gain the skills and connections they need to succeed in life after college.
We accept students of all majors and backgrounds, bringing a diverse range of talents and skills to our project. From finance and marketing to graphic design, there's a place for everyone on the team. Our interdisciplinary collaboration allows us to achieve the unthinkable.
