This year, University of Idaho placed 3rd overall, which is Idaho\u2019s first podium finish since 2014! In addition to overall placement, U of I placed 1st in acceleration with rider Will Thielman, 2nd in emissions, and 1st in subjective handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>TheClean Snowmobile Challenge, hosted by the Society of Automotive Engineers, has been held annually for over twenty years. The goal of the competition is the engineering of better exhaust emissions and sound characteristics of snowmobiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The competition features a host of other categories in which teams can score and win, such as acceleration, endurance, and marketability are taken fully into consideration. To achieve these goals, undergraduate students (predominantly engineering) form sub teams for individual components. Students learn skills of engineering and project management, as well as technical writing and team building.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the years, PacTrans has been a strong and consistent supporter of the University of Idaho\u2019s Clean Snowmobile Team.
