Planning for the May 16-19 Baja SAE Williamsport competition is continuing. The international event is expected to feature 100 collegiate teams, tasked with designing, manufacturing and building a single-seat, off-road vehicle to survive various challenges. Penn College’s Heavy Construction Equipment Operations Site in Brady Township will host the competition. Recently, college and SAE officials walked the site, planning a 1.1-mile track for the four-hour endurance event, Baja SAE’s toughest test.
