Info
From Western University in London, Canada, we begun in 1988, and have competed every year since 1996. Our team has a philosophy of Excellence, Endurance, and Enthusiasm: building highly-skilled and effective professionals; ensuring the long term success of the team; and having fun! WFR-15 features one of the skinniest cars at competition for improved driving line. We’ve also built our team’s first monocoque and composite wheels. We continue to use 13” rims for increased grip.
