Team Profile
Formula Group T consists of 22 master students in Industrial Engineering Sciences at the University of Leuven, Campus Group T, Belgium. June will be our third car and several improvements have been made to increase the performance, handling and the efficiency. In comparison to last year, there we achieved a 20% weight reduction. June will have the first monocoque we have ever built, which is the first Belgian monocoque as well. The pedals are adjustable for more driving comfort and also the 3D printed steering wheel with integrated ‘pedal’ buttons will give more comfort to the driver. The brakes, uprights and wheel hubs are designed to be as light as possible, just like the planetary gearboxes which have reduced another 75% in weight if you compare to last year. The battery boxes are attached to the side of the car to lower the point of gravity and to make some space for a more reclined driving position. Together with the diffuser, which is our first aero pack, this all will improve handling and thus performance.
Events 2014: FSUK, FSGermany and FSSpain
