Louisville Midnight Mayhem

Louisville Midnight Mayhem But what makes Midnight Mayhem different? The endurance race is held in the dark!

Louisville SAE Midnight Mayhem is an exhibition race, hosted by the University of Louisville and organized by Louisville SAE Baja Alumni, for student built vehicles conforming to the rules of the Baja SAE series. This annual event invites students from across North America to travel to Kentucky, test new designs and ideas, show new members what Baja SAE is all about, and race wheel to wheel agains

t over fifty other colleges and universities in various racing events. Like any other event for Baja SAE teams, Midnight Mayhem’s feature event is a wheel-to-wheel endurance race that challenges teams to navigate a closed course full of rocks, logs, jumps, and other obstacles to see whose car can make the most laps in four hours. Racing lasts from 8:00PM to Midnight, making Midnight Mayhem the ONLY Baja SAE related event hosted “under the lights” at night, which is why teams come back for this unique experience each year!
