The #96 car marked UTA's second championship title in a row and an unmatched eight victories in fifteen years of Formula SAE Competition. #96 set a new benchmark for UTA success, accumulating the most points in Formula SAE history and winning by the largest margin in history. Outstanding handling characteristics combined with good power and incredible fuel economy made #96 a great performer. The suspension featured unequal length a-arms with dual inboard shock absorbers, all packaged inside a well designed 4130 steel tube space frame. the turbocharged Honda 400cc engine ran on M-85 fuel controlled by UTA's student-built and programmed five-injector electronic fuel injection, and featured a unique intake system that used a heat exchanger.
