00:10While campuses across the country were slowing down for the summer break, inside a workshop in Ranchi, the work was
00:18only getting more intense.
00:19For 10 months, 30 engineering students at BIT Mesra designed, built and tested a race car with one goal, to
00:29take it to the national stage.
00:32That opportunity came at the Budh International Circuit in Greater Noida.
00:36Competing against nearly 80 teams from across India at Supra SAE 2026, BIT Mesra's Team Sreejan finished as the All
00:48India runner-up in the computer-aided engineering event.
00:51This car was a year-old, we had a lot of effort, we had a lot of effort, we had
01:05time and time, manufacturing, and we had a lot of effort.
01:09We had a lot of effort on the Supera, we had a lot of effort on the Supera, but we
01:17had a lot of effort on it.
01:19We had a lot of effort on our team, we had a lot of effort on it, we had a
01:22lot of effort on it.
01:23We had a lot of effort on it, we had a lot of effort on it.
01:26But the real race had begun months before they had reached the track.
01:31The team began with a virtual machine, designing and simulating the car before bringing those ideas into the workshop.
01:38Then came the hard part, fabricating the metal frame, integrating the engine and manufacturing components, including parts created through 3D
01:49printing.
01:50Months of designing, building and testing eventually came down to one crucial moment in Noida.
01:57The car cleared technical inspection on its very first attempt.
02:02The team is now complete.
02:05We are following the process of the whole team.
02:08The team is divided into the start divisions.
02:11We have recruited every year, every year, every year.
02:13We have the best people who have selected them.
02:15We also have the same knowledge of the team.
02:18When we wait for the summer, we care.
02:20We have the same team as we have worked on it.
02:22It was a great experience.
02:23We have worked on it for the whole year.
02:26The college was full of support.
02:28We are just here to keep our dreams on it.
02:31When we were lucky, it was a great experience.
02:35We were in front of the whole crowd.
02:37We were in front of the whole team.
02:39We were in front of the college and the team.
02:41It was a great feeling.
02:43When we collected the price, it was a great feeling.
02:47Behind the car was a 30-member team divided into seven specialized teams.
02:53Each handling a different piece of the challenge.
02:56From design and fabrication.
02:58To testing and performance.
03:00Guided by faculty advisor Dr. Somag Tatta.
03:03The project has become a hands-on lesson in engineering.
03:07Teamwork and problem solving.
03:09The kind of learning that moves beyond textbooks.
03:12And into the world of competition.
03:15I have been associated with this team for a long time.
03:18And I have seen that how much they worked.
03:21Day and night.
03:22And how much they are passionate about their vehicle.
03:27So I encourage all the students to be a part of this kind of activities.
03:32Which are apart from their regular academic activities.
03:35These are their co-curricular activities they participate in.
03:38And teams region is doing extremely well in different competitions as well.
03:43A race car may have been the final product.
03:46But the real journey happened long before it reached the track.
03:51For team Sweden, months of ideas, calculations, fabrication and testing have now translated into a national podium finish.
04:07So we do want to see from the past.
