About

FK03 represents a significant change to our approach to racecar engineering. We focused on improving the existing track-proven designs from the last cars and getting in as much testing as possible to prove the car’s reliability and train drivers. FK03 is our fastest and most polished car, with a carbon fiber body designed and manufactured in-house, as well as improved driver ergonomics in the form of removable foam seat inserts based on the specific driver.

Results

FK03 competed at the 2018 FSAE Lincoln May Competition, finishing in the 68th percentile. At Lincoln, we made it through tech and completed every event but acceleration and skid pad. Despite not completing two events, we still managed to score 283.4 total points. Which was over 60 points higher than the last car and a team record. 

FK03 competed again at the 2019 FSAE Michigan May Competition under the name FK03.5, finishing in the 62nd percentile. The MI2019 results are special to us because we bested our prior competition scores in the Cost, Presentation, Design, Acceleration & Skidpad events as well as scored our highest overall score of 301.6 points.
