Welcome to the ninth annual Formula Hybrid international Competition!
We’re thrilled to be back on track with Formula Hybrid, the educational competition that emphasizes
drivetrain innovation and fuel efficiency in a high-performance application.
This year’s competition includes a new event: a project management presentation. The event focuses on
how teams apply project management techniques to bring their racecars from design to completion.
Founded and hosted by Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth, Formula Hybrid is a member of the
Formula SAE Collegiate Design Series and is endorsed by the IEEE. The competition is made possible by the
generous support of the Thayer School community and the New Hampshire Motor Speedway, which has
so graciously made this facility available to us. We profoundly appreciate the outstanding support of our
sponsors, judges, and event volunteers—this event could not go on without them. A special shout-out
to Ed March, co-director of Thayer School’s Master of Engineering Management program, who oversaw
development of the new project management presentation event.
We commend the student teams that have boldly accepted the Formula Hybrid challenge. These young
pioneers are directing their ingenuity and creativity to advancing plug-in hybrid and electric vehicle
technologies, which will lead to improved applications in the future.
Enjoy the 2015 competition and know that planning for the tenth annual Formula Hybrid competition is
already underway. We look forward to seeing you there!

Spotlight
Edward March, Co-Director of the Master of
Engineering Management program at Thayer
School of Engineering at Dartmouth, developed
Formula Hybrid’s new Project Management
Presentation requirement.
What is the goal of the new project management requirement?By competing in Formula Hybrid, teams gain
real-world experience in designing and producing
a complex product. Their success is measured by
the performance of their racecar and compliance
to the design standards set by the Formula Hybrid
Committee. The project management requirement
extends this real-world experience further, giving
Formula Hybrid participants practice in creating
and executing a project plan and dealing with
change and barriers to progress in a disciplined
way. It places students in an environment similar
to that in which they will operate professionally.
Why is project management so important for Formula Hybrid teams?Project management is a tool to help teams
succeed. Each team has a clear deadline, limited
financial and human resources, and a rigorous set
of requirements. The efficient use of resources and
a focused effort on achieving the team’s goals are
necessary to improve the team’s chances for success
as team members work hard to meet the compe-
tition deadline. The project plan is a roadmap to
successful completion of the work.
What project management principles are most relevant to Formula Hybrid?First, the members of each team must agree
upon the objectives. An obvious goal is to win the
competition. But only one team wins, and if this
is the only objective, all the other teams lose.
Secondary goals—such as proving a new technology
in race conditions or testing the reliability and
endurance of a major new component—may be
more important than winning in the current year.
Second, the project management plan acts as a
roadmap to successful completion of the project,
providing direction for the work and reducing the
number of false starts. Third, all projects encounter
problems and barriers during execution that
require changes to be made in the plan. A formal
change management process keeps team members
aligned and up-to-date.
What will the project management presentation include?The presentation is an assessment of how well
the project was executed. For example: Did the
plan help the team achieve its objectives? How
were problems and barriers handled? Was change
well managed? How successful was the project,
considering all of the measures? What were the
strengths and weaknesses in the project
management? What recommendations does the
team have for improvement in future years?
& with Presentation Judge edward Marchchief design Judge Bob wimmer
Bob Wimmer, Formula Hybrid’s
Chief Design Judge, has a
not-so-secret secret: he’s been
a kart racer for years.
“Within weeks of starting my
first post-college job, I attended a
local karting school and realized
that you didn’t need a full-sized
racecar to experience excellent wheel-to-wheel
racing. Karts are relatively light on the budget and
make logistics easy—requiring minimal garage space
and only a pickup or small trailer to transport,”
says the 2014 World Karting Association Road Race
Grand Nationals champion.
“I stopped racing after my two boys were born.
But when they showed an interest in racing, we
formed Wild Wimmer Racing, and I spent the next
decade being their crew chief. It was incredibly
satisfying to see their skills and competitiveness
grow over the years. My racing bug emerged after
more than a decade in hibernation. The past three
racing seasons have been the best, not only due to
success on the track, but having the opportunity
to spend quality time with two rapidly maturing
young men competing in a sport you all love.”
Wimmer entered the motorsports world while
earning his mechanical engineering degree from
California State Polytechnic University, San Luis
Obispo. An active SAE member, he competed in
Mini Baja, off-road truck racing, and other events.
He completed his M.S. degree in systems manage-
ment at the University of Southern California,
served as technical director of fuel-cell bus
programs at Georgetown University for 12 years,
joined Toyota in 2003, and now directs Toyota’s
Energy and Environmental Research Group.
Wimmer brings personal and professional
passion to Formula Hybrid. “I have always credited
my collegiate SAE activities with jumpstarting my
professional carrier. The hands-on engineering
and project management experience is invaluable
in landing that first job and adapting to the work
world quickly,” he says. “I have seen firsthand
how engineering graduates with cross-discipline
knowledge and experience excel in the automotive
industry. I know of few other college activities or
competitions that provide the level of multidisci-
pline experience you receive in Formula Hybrid.”
