Abstract

This paper covers a study on research, design, analysis of FSAE race car. The main focus will on reducing aerodynamic drag and increasing downforce in order to optimize and cornering of vehicle while maintaining the lowest weight possible. Aerodynamic package helps to minimize overall lap-time by increasing cornering speed and better traction with respect to road through the race. Aerodynamics is used to develop realistic parameters for the specification of front and rear inverted aero foils, or 'wings'. This wings designed to produce high amount of downforce within the stated acceptable limits of drag.
