Car #94 combined the best of #92 and #93 into one spectacular car. This vehicle featured a top-mounted mono-shock, a smaller and lighter tetrahedral space frame and a two-piece Kevlar seat. Other features included a new UTA-designed and programmed fuel injection controller with an optimized intake design and a turbocharged Honda engine. This car won numerous awards, including Best Engineering Design, Best Use of Composites and Highest Performance using M-85 fuel. Unfortunately, due to the engine overheating in the last lap, #94 dropped from 1st to 8th place. Car #94 spent two years on display in the Motor Sports Hall of Fame Museum (as seen in photo to the left) in Novi , Michigan. #94 also has been on display at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History, and at the A.E. Pestche Automotive Museum.
