Non-notable. Formula SAE/Formula Student is a university-level engineering and racing program. It's specific participating universities and teams are not notable. The359 (talk) 00:31, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

 * KEEP As one of the most successful and longest running UK formula student team, UH Racing is exceptional among Foumula Student teams for it's commitment and success. UH Racing is also one of the greatest suppliers of Graduates to Motorsport, particularly F1. The associated Engineering course at the University of Hertfordshire is the only University to be accredited by the Motorsport Academy as a recognised educator. It is also accredited by the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (who organise the Formula Student competition) and the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. UH Racing also developed the World's First Hydrogen powered competitive race car. Perhaps inclusion of details of this vehicle will increase notability? — 84.69.129.119 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Delete or redirect. A student competition only, in a sport where there is professional competition. The later success of some of their graduates does not justify an article on the team. At present the article serves only the vanity of the participants. DGG (talk) 05:10, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete; no objection to a subsequent redirect being created. Insufficient independent sources to meet WP:V which is a policy requirement. TerriersFan (talk) 01:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep--Notability: One of a few UK universities to compete in the US Formula SAE competition, and different awards. Few sources but enough to establish WP:N. --Jmundo (talk) 04:32, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
