The aim of the Kansas State University Formula SAE team is to design an efficient<br />
formula style vehicle that can compete at the highest level of competition. The<br />
best way for our team to achieve the goal of a top 25 finish, is to first and foremost<br />
have a reliable car. Our car must be able to perform in a consistent manner,<br />
without failure. By incorporating a light aerodynamics package, a rigid chassis<br />
with optimized suspension, a dependable powertrain and a reliable electronics<br />
system, we have a car designed to be reliable, predictable, and lightweight.<br />
WHR-16 is an evolution of last years car. We focused on improving last years<br />
design to be more reliable, easier to drive and high performance. Performance<br />
is the center of the design with an aggressive aero package, powerful 4 cylinder<br />
engine, anti roll bars and wider tires. the engine was developed for a lower peak<br />
torque curve to provide a more diver friendly car. the car will incorporate a 3.5”<br />
touch screen display and have active launch control and traction control to help<br />
the driver push the vehicle.<br />
