New wheels for the new car. Going from 13’’ to 10’’ considerably reduces our unsprung weight and will also give us a faster acceleration; a 6.96kg loss overall. Even lighter home made wheels are in development right now ! Stay tuned.
The Edition of Forum EPFL was also an occasion for the whole team to be reunited; in the following days we will present to you the members involved in each division. The perfect occasion to get to know this new team !
