The team was founded in 1989 by a group of engineering students at Rutgers. In the last few years, the team has struggled to raise funds to support the development of their car in competitions where some foreign teams secure more than $100,000.

The hard work has paid off for team members with internship and jobs. A highlight for the team was its third place design finish in 2009, out of 120 teams.
