FK06

We have completed our sixth car, FK06! Aiming for a one-year build cycle, we finished the design in October 2023 and finished manufacturing in April 2024, allowing the team to fully prepare for the May 2024 Competition.

Our goal for this car was to improve the reliability and performance of our previous design, while working within the constraints of our current budget. We also hoped to further improve our current manufacturing processes, and successfully improved ranking at the Formula SAE IC competition. It was also the first time that we have completed all events at the competition since 2019.
