Formula

Our team combines years of knowledge from formerly building combustion race cars in building electric race cars. Our years of mechanical development let us tackle these new technologies head-on while maintaining a solid racing platform. We strive to push Concordia engineering students to become top-notch, relevant future employees in an ever-changing job market. Here at Concordia Formula Racing, we don't just make race cars go fast, we create the race car of the future.

Formula Subsystems

Aero

Responsible for the creation of components such as wings and diffusers used to create downforce and push the car into the ground.

Chassis

Responsible for attaching the other subsystems together as well as protecting the driver from the elements.

Steering

Responsible for the steering geometry, closely related to the suspension subsystem.

Wheels & Tires

Responsible for all cornering and acceleration forces transferring between the road and the car.

Powertrain

Responsible for the motor, motor controller, and gearbox that power the car.

Brakes

Responsible for slowing the car through the combination of hydraulic and friction systems.

Data Acquisition

Responsible for the acquiring of sensor data and refining it with the objective of assisting other subsystems with the analysis of said data.

Suspension

Responsible for translating forces from the tires into the rest of the car through the establishment of car specific geometry.

GLV Electrical

Responsible for the low voltage systems of the car such as safety equipment and sensing equipment. 

Accumulator

Responsible for the battery and its management systems which are mostly high voltage.
