This year, Swansea University Race Engineering returns to Class 1 at Silverstone with a highly developed version of a previously proven vehicle. S11 features a refined chassis and an all new, enhanced drivetrain which has been optimised for lightness and performance incorporating twin inboard brakes and a belt drive system. Our engine has been improved by re-mapping around a new lightweight exhaust system and a new air intake system with a re-positioned throttle, giving us better engine characteristics, making the engine’s power more flexible and more usable for more of the time. The suspension has also been altered and upgraded utilising double barrel dampers to allow a more precise set-up. The team this year has worked tirelessly to bring all aspects of the development programme together to build, what we hope, will be our most competitive vehicle yet, doing ourselves and sponsors proud.
