The 2016 Blue Devil Motorsports team focused on driver ergonomics and overall
vehicle control. Minimal changes were made to the chassis and suspension
design from 2015. The steering rack and column, intake, and pedal box were
redesigned to increase performance and driver ergonomics. The powertrain and
drivetrain systems also received upgraded components to increase performance,
tunability, and data logging capabilities. The 2016 team also carried over the
removable cradle design for the Aprilia SXV 450 engine. Design modifications for
the 2016 car ensured the overall vehicle weight would not increase.
Blue Devil Motorsports would like to thank all of the sponsors for their support as
well as the faculty and staff associated with the team.
Huskie Formula Racing has developed this year’s car to perform. The design
focuses on bringing speed and reliability to an attractive user friendly design. Featuring
a high output 4 cylinder engine mated to an ultralight spaceframe the car is
capable of pulling massive g’s and properly setup can dominate the racetrack.
To help leave the competition far behind carbon fiber has been used extensively
on the car. Even portions of the powertrain have had the composite treatment.
With a solid car and a solid team Huskie Formula Racing hopes to do well at
Detroit this year. A special thanks goes to all of our sponsors without whom we
could not hope to compete.
