The goal for UTA Racing’s 2016 car was to increase specific power while<br />
maintaining handling performance. F16’s fully-adjustable suspension features<br />
CFRP wheels with double unequal length a-arms, pull rod actuation, and anti-roll<br />
bars. Lightness was added where appropriate. In the pursuit of increasing the<br />
specific power UTA has chosen to implement a CBR600RR engine with a CFDoptimized<br />
SLA printed intake. Engine output is distributed to the tires through<br />
an automatic torque biasing differential. Lateral stability is provided by 6061-T6<br />
aluminum hubs, uprights, and wheel centers. This, combined with a new 4130<br />
steel chassis with excellent torsional rigidity and proven suspension kinematics<br />
results in an ideal racing vehicle. To maximize F16’s performance capability, a<br />
lightweight CFRP aerodynamic package consisting of a front and rear wing with<br />
electro-mechanical drag reduction and an undertray diffuser is utilized. The driver<br />
interface consists of an adjustable pedal box, telescoping CFRP steering wheel,<br />
and interchangeable seat backs to suit different drivers.<br />
Auburn Formula SAE presents AU2016, the 20th vehicle of a storied program.<br />
AU2016 features a Yamaha R6 motor, delivering the 82 highly-durable bhp and<br />
broad torque curves that the target market demands. The hybrid monocoque<br />
design allows for a light, stiff chassis that meets power/weight ratio goals while<br />
providing superior handling characteristics at the vehicle’s limit. New for 2016 is<br />
a full aerodynamics package that allows AU2016 to explore the realm of highdownforce<br />
cornering and enhanced levels of grip.<br />
None of this would be possible without our sponsors and community partners<br />
whose continued backing of our team, and ultimately our engineers, has helped<br />
us succeed in developing new technologies, and training bright engineers. It<br />
would be impossible to continue our work as AUFSAE without the time, money,<br />
and resources they have given to us.<br />
