Interesting that they went with an open-cockpit design. I'd have thought closed cockpit would be faster because of better aerodynamics, even at these relatively low speeds. Any idea why this was chosen?
- kukkamario 3y agoI'm guessing weight is more important than aerodynamics if target is 0-100km/h.
- Saturn5 3y agoThis is the typical design for the competition this car was originally build for. The rules of Formula Student require an open cockpit with a hoop, and you have to demonstrate that your driver is able to egress within 2(?) seconds if I remember correctly. This record was set with a modified version the car they competed with last season.
