About CUBRT.

Who is Buffs Racing?

Founded in 2016, the CU Boulder Racing Team is an organization focused on various road racing competitions. Our goals are building a car to compete in the intercollegiate competition known as Formula SAE, and building endurance race cars to compete in the ChampCar Endurance Series. Our club welcomes everyone, with or without racing experience. The only thing we desire from our members is willingness to learn and enthusiasm for racing.

 

Our Commitment To Inclusion

Our team is dedicated to promoting diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, ensuring that every member feels supported, valued, and empowered. One of our key achievements has been supporting underrepresented communities within the team, with a notable focus on the Women in Motorsports initiative, which has quickly become a cornerstone of our efforts.

This group meets multiple times each semester to provide female team members with a safe and welcoming space where their voices are heard, meaningful connections are built, and professional opportunities and resources are shared. To date, the group has also welcomed industry guest speakers, offering members valuable networking opportunities and highlighting strong female representation within the motorsports industry.

In the future, we aim to grow our outreach by collaborating with local schools, organizing events, and partnering with other organizations. By broadening these efforts, we hope to inspire the next generation of diverse talent and continue building a more inclusive future for motorsports.

 

Want to Get Involved?

Are you a student at the University of Colorado Boulder? Do you enjoy working in a fast-paced and supportive team environment? Do you enjoy designing and driving cars that reach speeds upwards of 150mph? If any of these sound like you, then the CU Boulder Racing Team is for you!

Buffs Racing is unofficially the fastest college sports team in Colorado (sorry HyperLoop). Our tightly knit group of over 150 members ranges from freshman to graduate students in all majors and colleges. We work together to design, build, test, and compete in multiple racing categories including the ChampCar Endurance Series and the prestigous global student design competition known as Formula SAE.

We are always looking for passionate and hard-working members to design and drive our cars. If you feel you have what it takes to join the fastest moving club on campus, please send an email to buffsracing@colorado.edu.
