FK02

 About

FK02 followed much of the same design philosophy as FK01, however, we made multiple refinements.  These refinements included upgrades to the engine management system, ergonomics, and suspension. The team put a heavy focus on using data acquisition and simulation to drive design choices.  FK02 also incorporated a vehicle sensor package, as well as the Haltech Elite 1500 ECU. FK02 showed a reduction in vehicle size and weight, a lower center of gravity, and decreased rotational mass.
