Team Profile
Defianz_Racing represents Delhi Technological University (formerly DCE), one of the most prestigious institute of India, at the Formula Student event. The team consists of 19 undergraduates from mechanical, automotive and electronics engineering background.
The main objectives have been to build a light, driver responsive, and an economical race car. We have been aggressively involved in the designing of uprights, bell cranks, intake manifold among various other mechanisms, trying to extricate as many flaws as possible. The dynamic events in the competition, especially endurance event, have been kept as the major target of the team. Failure in the dynamic events in the previous attempts has driven the team to scale the challenge this time; testing has been given due consideration.
Our team is a closely knit, dynamic bunch of engineers working hard amidst trying challenges to achieve our goal. The team is composed of five major departments that work in tandem to optimize efficiency: Chassis/Framework, Brakes and Steering, Engine and Drive-train, Suspension, Marketing and Administration.
Team members work on a strict timeline to achieve their targets. The car is shipped through air cargo and has members dedicated for all logistics. Jaypee, Brembo, IOCL, Loctite, DZUS among others are supporting the team.
The team works in a workshop that is very close to nature- rain, dust, strong winds, monkeys, dogs and whatever one can possibly imagine are very much a part of the team.
