FOREWORD
Lukas RASCHENDORFER
Attention all teams,
Dear friends of Formula Student Austria,
It is a great pleasure for us to welcome all of you to this
years’ Formula Student Austria (FSA) event.
Oh, how time flies...this year FSA is already
held for the 8th time, and for the 6th time at our
current location, the Red Bull Ring. Many of the
FSA organizers have been in the FS game for
10 years or more, but the great atmosphere and
spirit of FS and FSA especially still makes it an
enjoyable and unique experience every year.
This year we have again implemented many
gradual improvements at the event, most of
them behind the scenes where they make the
vent run more smoothly. Much more apparent changes are
the embiggened areas for the statics (Design & Cost) which
should provide you with a less cramped experience during
judging and also the much roomier scrutineering box.
Another FSA first is the availability of an on-site welding
service kindly provided by SLV.
There was also a change in the management of FSA, Martin
Matzer, who led the organizing team for the past three
seasons retired and handed the lead to Christoph Hirt.
Speaking of the steering committee, if you look at the following
pages you will notice that FSA seems to be run by
just 6 people. This is only partly true. Indeed, for most of
the year the steering committee keeps FSA running, but it
would be utterly impossible for us to run an FS Event, let
alone one like FSA without the support of lots and lots of
helping hands from all over the world. Therefore we would
like to thank all of the reviewers, judges, scrutineers and
other staff members who sacrifice their free time and
bring their experience, expertise and passion to FSA and
make this event possible (and awesome!).
Another big „Thank you“ has to go out to all the teams
(you!) who chose to come to FSA and make it
one of the most competitive FS events in the
world. Especially in a season like this, with an
FS event every week from July, 14th till the
28th of August this cannot be taken for granted
and is a big honor for us,
But since making FSA happen on good spirits
and motivation alone is not possible, we also
teamed up with partners and supporters in the
industrial sector. They not only help make FSA
a reality, they can also offer you the possibility to graduate
from FS into an interesting and fulfilling job in engineering,
Many of them are on-site so go talk to them and see what
carreer options they can offer you!
That leaves little more to say than wishing you good luck
for the event; have fun; and maybe find some new friends!
Best regards and keep on racing,
Lukas Raschendorfer
& The FSA Team

THE FSA TEAM
Formally known as the FSA Steering Committee
Christoph Hirt | Event Manager
Christoph HIRT
Taking the torch from former lead Martin Matzer Christoph
Hirt is determined to further FSAs lead in the „small but
mighty“ class of FSAE events. He hit the [FSAE] ground
running during the formation of an FSE Team 2009 and
joined FSA in 2013.
Christoph Lorenzutti | Sponsor Relations, Scoring
Part of the FSAE circus since 2005, Christoph can look back
on a lot of experience in the series. Working on aquiring
new supporters for FSA throughout the year, his main responsibility
at the event is the scoring system.
Christoph LORENZUTTI
Ralph Moser | IT, Timing, HR
Ralph MOSER
As FSA‘s tame IT professional, Ralph makes sure that all
the electronic systems at the event, from timing to team
internet, play nice. During the rest of the year his responsibility
is recruiting the staff and judges, without whom FSA
would not be possible.
Michael Müller | Dynamics
Former FSAE Team Manger and powertrain guy, Michael
has the oversight over all of the dynamics. During the night
you may catch a glimpse of him placing cones and making
the very special FSA course a reality.
Michael MÜLLER

Lukas Raschendorfer | Rules, International Relations
Lukas RASCHENDORFER
After multiple years as "Sparkie" for both C&E FSAE cars,
Lukas joined FSA and is now responsible for the rules,
also taking FSA‘s chair in the FSAE world committee.
A racecar engineer by day, a designer by night he also creates
most of FSA‘s graphical designs.
Benjamin Möller | Rules, Head Scrutineer
With several years of experience as C- and E-car team
captain as well as FSG & FSA scrutineer, Benjamin joined
the FSA Steering Committe for the 2016 event. He is responsible
for the interpretation of the more technical parts
of the rulebook as well as the technical inspection at the
event.
Benjamin MÖLLER
A whole lot of Volunteers | Making FSA happen
Six guys may be enough to organize the event, but to actually
run the event a much greater number of people is
needed. This is where all of our red-shirted volunteers
step in and take over all the tasks from scrutineering to
fetching the cones that were ungently removed from their
positions.
Like the steering committee, they are all volunteers, dedicating
their free time and holidays to providing you a great
experience.

FORMULA STUDENT
Scope and Martin History MATZER
„The Formula SAE ® Series competitions challenge
teams of university undergraduate and graduate students
to conceive, design, fabricate, develop and compete
with small, formula style, vehicles.“
Formula SAE Rule A1.1: Competition Objective
The roots of formula student lie in 1970s Texas, as a
variant to the already existing Mini Baja (competition
for lawnmower-powered offroad vehicles). The idea
resonated well and after a few establishing years, Formula
SAE was introduced as a design competition with a very
open ruleset and also much more "race" appeal since the
cars were allowed to have engines with siginficant power
comapred to the spec‘d single cylinders in Baja.
The event quickly picked up momentum, and in 1998 it
made the jump over the big pond when Formula Student
UK was the first non-US competition to be held. Soon other
followed and today there are eight official competitions all
over the World:
• Formula SAE Michigan
• Formula SAE Lincoln
• Formula SAE Australasia
• Formula Student Austria
• Formula SAE Brazil
• Formula Student Germany
• Formula SAE Italy
• Formula Student (UK)
Formula Student Austria was founded in 2009 by alumni
of both UAS and TU Graz. The European Formula Student
Scene has been growing rapidly since around 2007 and
there was not only room but need for another competition
besides UK, Germany and Italy. The reception of the event
was quite good, so over the years it grew to its present
size of 42 participants, also necessitating the move from
the Wachauring in Melk to the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg.
Also, it was one of the first events to allow the 2010-introduced
Formula student vehicles to compete, for some
years even against each other. Starting 2016, however,
this was dropped and replaced by a split scoring with two
classes (Combustion/Electric) due to the big development
advances seen in electric vehicles, making them all but
impossible to beat in some aspects.
So what is it all about? Formula Student is an engineering
Design competition that should teach engineering
students some real-world skills relevant to the automotive
and other industries. To sucessfully compete, a team
has to delve into research, design, manufacturing, testing,
developing, marketing, management and finances - this
favors or even requires the formation of multi-disciplinary
teams. This and the fact that Formula Student is as much
a project management exercise as it is an engineering
challenge, it teaches the competitors a valuable and industry-appreciated
combination of soft- and hard skills.
The vehicle itself is governed by a set of internationally
agreed upon rules. The rules have grown pretty complex
over the years (the rule book is now larger than the one for
F1), so here are the defining characteristics:
Vehicle:
• Open-Wheel, Open-Cockpit, Formula-style body
• four wheels
• aerodynamic devices are limited in size
C - Powertrain:
• max. 610 cc four-stroke piston engine
• 20mm Air restrictor (19mm for E85)
• turbo/supercharging is allowed
E-Powertrain:
• any number of motors and driven wheels
• 80kw peak system power
Spielberg 2016 | Formula Student Austria | 13
Disciplines
The first of the so-called Dynamic Disciplines is the Acceleration.
The car has to accelerate from a standstill and cover
a distance of 75 meters a quickly as possible. Due to a high
power to weight ratio, FSAE cars can do this in well below
four seconds with terminal speeds of well over 100 kph, outrunning
almost all road-going sportscars. Each team can
have two drivers, each of them doing two runs.
Maximum Score: 75
2014 Winner C: CAT Racing (UAS Coburg)
2014 Winner E: AMZ Racing (ETH Zürich)
In the Skid Pad event the lateral ability of the car is tested on
a figure-eight course. After entering the course, the driver
he has to go round the right circle (right turn) two times, then
round the left circle (left turn) two times - the time for the second
lap of each circle is used to determine the score. Again,
each team has 4 runs split among two drivers.
Maximum Score: 75
2014 Winner C: Global Formula Racing (Oregon/Ravensburg)
2014 Winner E: AMZ Racing (ETH Zürich)
The Autcross track is a handling course consisting of turns,
hairpins, straights and slaloms and is roughly 1000 meters
long. Each car enters the track on its own and will do a single
“hot lap“ of the course.
The track is marked using small traffic cones which will,
when hit, result in a two-second penalty.
Each team has two runs for each of their two drivers.
Maximum score: 100
2014 Winner C: Global Formula Racing (Oregon/Ravensburg)
2014 Winner E: GreenTeam Uni Stuttgart
The Endurance race takes part on a closed autocross course
over a distance of 22km. At half-time a driver change is performed
and the car has to perform a hot restart. This event
is driven with multiple cars on the course but overtakes are
performed in special two-lane overtaking zones.
The fuel/energy consumption as well as the laptimes during
the Endurance are used to calculate the Efficiency score.
Maximum Score: 325 (Endurance) / 100 (Efficiency)
2014 Winner C: GFR / FaSTTUBe (TU Berlin)
2014 Winner E: AMZ Racing / Racetech (TU Freiberg)
14 | Formula Student Austria | Spielberg 2016
The most important one of the Statics is the Engineering
Design Event. During the judging the team has to present
their car to a group of automotive and racing experts. These
judges will check if the design goals have been met, if the
team members understand their design and if it has been
executed well.
Maximum Score: 150
2014 Winner C: Global Formula Racing (Oregon/Ravensburg)
2014 Winner E: AMZ Racing (ETH Zürich)
For the Cost Event, the teams have to submit a detailed Bill of
materials up front. At the event, their correctness and completenessis
checked an the team is presented with an additional
cost-related task.
During the Presentation Event, the teams have to present a
business plan for selling their design to fictional investors.
Maximum Score: 100 (Cost) / 75 (Business)
2014 Cost Winner C: High Octane (TU Erlangen)
2014 Presentation Winner C: Global Formula Racing
2014 Cost Winner E: Racetech (TU Freiberg)
2014 Presentation Winner E: GreenTeam Uni Stuttgart
When all the events are over, the scores are added up and
the Winner Over All is determined. Additionally, prices are
given to the best teams in each discipline. From 2014 on, the
scoring was split between cars with electric and combustion
powertrain.
Maximum Score: 1000
2014 Winners C: 2014 Winners E:
1. Global Formula Racing 1. AMZ Racing
2. CAT Racing (UAS Coburg) 2. DUT Racing (TU Delft)
3. High Octane (Erlangen) 3. Global Formula Racing

Global Formula Racing is an international
collaboration in Formula Student. In 2010 the
former US based Beaver Racing Team from
Oregon State University (OSU) and EU based
BA Racing Team from Duale Hochschule
Baden-Wurttemburg-Ravensburg (DHBW)
Germany joined forces to create one Team.
Both schools share physical and intellectual
resources to create highly competitive racecars
worthy of international recognition. Design,
manufacturing, and testing occurs at both
schools simultaneously throughout the year,
over nine time zones and more than 8600
kilometers away.
We are looking forward to meeting you in the
pits and on track in Spielberg!

The TU Graz Racing Team has participated in Formula Student
Events for quite a long time and our newest car is the 13th
iteration of the TANKIA family. Although we built great cars in the
past there is always room for improvement. This years model, the
TANKIA 2016 or ‘Gitte’ as we decided to call her, was designed to be
even faster, lighter and more reliable than her predecessors. For more
detailed information please refer to the table below.
With that in mind, we are highly anticipating the season and are poised
to achieve great results at our home race in Spielberg, just about 85 km
away from our workshop. Until now it’s one of the few race tracks in
Europe where we haven’t managed to take the top spot so far. The
team behind the TANKIA 2016 consists of around 40 students. Although
most of us are engineers there are also members form different facilities helping the team with their
experience and expertise, creating a great mixture unified by chasing after one common goal: getting the
best result for Gitte during the 2016 season.

Since at least last season, everybody knows
that the Weasels are speedy. With the cars
before they had very successful seasons. But
their newest member, the jr16, is ready, hungry
for the competition and fast. Very fast.
The team worked extremely hard, day
and night for months, to build a even
better car than last season. The jr16 is
light, agile and a joy to drive. During the
very successful phase of testing it already
proved its power and strength.
The Weasels are the members of joanneum
racing graz and located at the University
of Applied Sciences JOANNEUM at Graz.
Their studies in Automotive Engineering
equip them with the skills to
build a state-of-the-art race car, which
rules the tracks of Formula Student.
The FSA is a very important competition
for joanneum racing graz, as it takes
place in their home country Austria.
The beautiful Styrian setting makes it
easy to have a great time at the event.
The team is also looking forward to the
upcoming Formula Student events in Germany
and Japan, which will be the first
Asian event for the team. With their motto
“Never stop pushing” always in mind
there is nothing stopping them now.

Europe is ready for the F0711-11! After a successful season with
the F0711-10 and the successful comeback to the top of the world
ranking list before the summer competitions 2016 (second place
after FSAE Michigan 2016) the F0711-11 and its team is
determined to continue the positive results to get to the absolute
top.
Therefore the F0711-11 combines both, approved systems and a lot of innovations. The developments of
the new car are based on a realistic laptime simulation and on our three main goals complete, finish and
win. Therefore the Chassis consists of the approved hybrid design made of the CFRP monocoque and the
steeltube rearframe. This is made for a better serviceability and also to guarantee maximum testing time.
The F0711-11 has a modular heave-spring-system to keep the performance at this high level. This year
especially the revolutionized aerodynamic package attracts the attention of the eyes. Compared to last
year’s aero package the F0711-11 generates over 30% more downforce and big steps forward were also
taken at downforce while cornering. We also rearranged some engine components to allow a very high
aerodynamic efficiency. But also the engine was optimized especially for better fuel efficiency and for a
constant torque output which results in a better driveability. The external design with the white and blue
chassis parts and the sharp nose show immediately that the car belongs to the Rennteam family.
For this season the Formula Student Austria competition is our second after FS United Kingdom. We will as
well go to Formula Student Germany and Spain and we look forward to a great performance at every single
competition to – according to our philosophy – keep up with the successes of the last
seasons.
The most important feature of any
fast car definitely is a great team
with the ability to work together
even in difficult situations. Again
our association says thanks to all
the team that put everything it had
into this car and the Formula
Student competitions.

The Team
The new Formula Student Team of UAS Heilbronn

its name from KÜHN Racing to HHN Racing.
Our current team is put together by 40 members
out of 10 different Studies.
We worked over the Season with the highest
motivation to reach one goal: 4
Pure Happiness
Getting through Endurance and still being the happiest
Team at the contest. In order to reach that we
refined our engineering and made our second car,
the HNR16, about 80kg lighter than the first one.
Engineering
This huge step was possible due to a strict diet and
the intelligent use of carbon fibre. We also kept the
modified Husqvarna one-cylinder engine.
Nevertheless, we didn’t waive the Aeropackage this
Season, we actually improved it to get a more effective
one.
Also the steelframe is completely new developed
and saved one or another kilogramm.
Anticipation
Throughout the year we were all looking forward to
this great event with great competitors in Austria.
Hopefully we are able to compete successfully on
this event with the support of our new
mascot “Heilbrumm”.

Located directly at the lake of constance, we are heading towards our 11th Fomular Student
season. We are very happy to be part of Formula Student Austria 2016 and to compete with
great teams from all over the world. After a very disappointing season in 2015 we are highly
motivated to give our best to achieve the most succesful season in our team‘s history!
With the ILTIS16 we built a completely new car. We focussed
on lightweight design, centralization of the mass, a low
center of gravity and to ensure good ergonomics.
Furthermore we put lot of effort into the aerodynamic
package to increase the downforce
to it‘s maximum. The needed
power is provided by a
modified Suzuki GSX-R
600cc engine.
Where are
the kangaroos?
Did somebody

A big thanks to all of our sponsors! Without your ongoing support we
would not be able to be part of the great FS familiy year after year.

The Einstein Motorsport Team was founded in 2006. The first car built by
students from Ulm started at Hockenheim in 2006. The actual car for 2016 is
car number ten in the team's history. Starting with the Al'06 (ALbert), every
car was a continuous development with adoption of the parts which were
proved in former cars. With a new developed carbon monocoque and a
Husaberg single-cylinder engine the Al'16 will be the first car with a ten inch
kinematics. The Al´16 is the lightest car we have ever built and hopefully the
most competetive.

AWAKE THE BEAST! This is not just our slogan, this is the pulsative heartbeat that
drives the whole team to maximum effort! And yes, this year we created a Beast
– the RP16c.
Goal for the season of 2016 is to reach the Top 5 at FSA to become one of the
German top teams. With a highly motivated and strong
team and a reliable concept of our combustion race car
RP16c we are able to meet our target. Last season
we made a big leap and learned a lot. All the won knowledge and

HAWKS Racing was founded in 2003 and participated in Formula Student the first time in
2004. Currently we are about 50 students from different specialisations, working on the car
and its related businesses divided in interdisciplinary groups. In 2016, we will compete our
12th year of FSAE competitions with our new car, the H12 aka „Hidaya“. We are looking
forward to the summer of 2016! #69
Again, this year we are focussing on weigth reduction. The H12 is our second car with a layup and core
material optimized full body CFRP monocoque supported by a CFRP strut brace. The driver has an
improved visual field and a lower driver position of
15mm compared to last year.
We completely reengineered our engine and
drivetrain to improve fuel economy, drivability and
acceleration, e. g. weight reduced crankshaft with
own-manufactured titanium connection rods and
electric shifter, clutch and throttle. For reducing
friction at the engine, some parts are DLC coated.
Our 3D-simulated aero dynamic package
consisting of an undertray as well as front and rear
wings was further optimized and is positively
influenced by the monocoque geometry.

season 2010/11 we decided to break with our tradition of building
combustion cars and developed our first electrically powered
vehicle. Participating for the 11th time this year, we are very proud
to present you our latest race car, the „FR16 Parsifal“. Our particular
focus was on our new aerodynamic package. For the very first
time our car is equipped with front-, rear- and side-wings.

AMZ currently holds the world record for electric car acceleration with
their 2014 car “grimsel” (1.513 s to 100kph), which got them a lot of
media coverage. Their popularity ratings are, however, still second to the
Toblerone chocolate bar, the other major mountain-themed export of

The Formula Student Team from Deggendorf was founded in 2008. Since our second season we compete in
the Formula Student Electric. After participating with a rear-wheel driven car for 6 years, in this season the
team built its first four-wheel driven formula student car, called Jenny8X.
The car is completely new developed an convinces with a new self-developed speed measuring system and
a battery management system.
Our team consists of about 90 people.
It’s our fourth time at FSA and we enjoy it
every time to participate in the
competition.
We were very looking forward to have fun

BRS Motorsport is the Formula Student Electric team of UAS
BonnRheinSieg with 60 students of all faculties, who share
their love for designing, developing and manufacturing a
singleseater racecar every year. We have built four
combustion and two electric racecars since our first Formula
Student attendance in 2009. This year’s racecar is a tribute to
our fast 2015 racecar: a one motor concept with a full CFRP monocoque with aerodynamics, 10
inch wheels & suspension, our new rear wheel steering for more agility and an overall focus on
reliability all combined in our new car, the G16e (or more beautifully named 'Carola').
With our 2015th car 'Carina', we were able to constantly achieve Top10 results in the Autocross
but it lacked reliability in the Endurance. So we've taken last year as a lesson and incorporated
these experiences in an improved racecar. Thus, this year's goal is to increase the team's
performance in all disciplines and adapt the points to the same high level!

students from all five years of
study and several different engineering
disciplines.
The 4WD system opened a lot
of opportunities, like torque vectoring
and regenerating more
energy from breaking. This lead
to a deeper reserch regarding
new battery cells to cobe with
the charging currents.
We wanted to design the TV-algorithms,
planetary gearbox,
carbon fiber rims and suspension
system as well as our own
SiCMOS inverter to lower the
systems weight and increase
efficiency. This alongside improving
our electronics and analysis
software, re-designing the monovoque,
battery, aero package
and cooling system lead to another
year with hard work and technical
improvements.

WHZ RACING TEAM
Zwickau? Probably never heard about it! The small
east-saxon city is the birthplace of a famous car company
- later known as AUDI. Due to the fact that there is a
huge tradition in building cars, a small group of students
decided to build their own racing car. That
was 10 years ago. While the first four cars are
powered by combustion engines, in 2010 we additionally
built an electric vehicle. Now, with our FPX16e (or called

„eRnst“), we are able to present our seventh electric
racing car. About 60 motivated students enabled us to
present our new family member as
early as possible – our rollout in April was one of the
first rollouts of an electric Formula Student car
this year. That are all quite nice features, but
what really matter is what is inside the car.
Under a pile of cable ties you can find an
inventive concept, that differs a lot from
last year’s: True to our motto „Back to the
roots“ (thanks to our 10th anniversary) we
built a racing car with a four-wheel drive. Every one of the four
permanent energized motors has
a peak power of 38 kW. With a
revised aerodynamic package and
an integrated cooling system we want
to tie up to our last achievements.
• HV grid: 600 V / LV-System-Voltage 24 V
• 4 permanently enginzed motors with 38 kw
FUN FACT
We just have boy´s names
for our cars, because they
already cause enough
trouble, what would be
even more by having a
car with a girl´s name.

RWTH Aachen University
Ecurie Aix Formula Student Team RWTH Aachen e.V.
E99
Ecurie Aix, the Formula Student Team at
RWTH Aachen University, was founded in
1999. The name “Ecurie Aix” is a reference
to the team´s international home base in
the German city of Aachen, which lies
right at the borders to Belgium and the
Netherlands. The word “Ecurie” means
“Racing Stable” or “Racing Team” in
French and has been chosen in respect to
a very successful Belgian motorsports
team named “Ecurie Francorchamps”. The
word “Aix” is derived from Aachen´s
French name: Aix-la-Chapelle.
Until last year our team has built 10 cars
with internal combustion engines and 4
electric powered cars. After having the
most successful season of our history in 2015,
thanks to an vehicle with two electric motors in the rear, we decided to take the next step in terms of technology:
the whole new CFRP chassis, 4WD, the new suspension and improved aerodynamics are expected to
enable us to close the gap to the top teams. Therefore we are looking forward to have a great competition in
2016. This year the team will travel more than 4000 km to participate at FSUK, Formula Student Austria
and Formula Student Germany.
