The OSU Baja design philosophy is a Baja SAE vehicle with heavy rear weight bias for traction, augmented by long travel independent front and rear suspension and a limited slip differential in a simple, rugged mid-weight package. This combination allows for excellent cornering and and high speed handling coupled with superior rock performance.
