In a couple of weeks, Frederick and his teammates will take their car to compete in a Formula SAE contest in Brooklyn, Michigan, one of two competitions sponsored by the Society of Automotive Engineers Student Organization in the U.S. Sources: The Tuscaloosa News, WBRC Fox 6, WVUA 23, Belleville News Democrat , Daily Reporter
