A change in the Formula Student Rules led to a significant redesign of the front of our vehicle, which additionally led to a transition from front pull-rod suspension to push-rod. The chassis redesign offered ample opportunity for new lightweighting, with this years team achieving an impressive 180kg R2R car. A focus on the statics events at competition gave us several podium finishes at FSUK, and we once again achieved 4th overall, as the best UK team.
