    This document discusses the use of IPG tools in Formula Student competitions. It describes Formula Student competitions, the cars designed and built by teams for the competitions, and how the KA-RaceIng team has used IPG's Formula CarMaker and IPGKinematics software to design their suspension and optimize their vehicles virtually before building prototypes. The software allows teams to present detailed vehicle dynamics calculations and simulations in the static design events and test configurations virtually to save costs and time. KA-RaceIng has seen successes using this approach, such as winning best newcomer and placing highly in various dynamic events in their first years of competition.

    The Team.

    What gives us the motivation, to sleep three hours in three days?


    ... being an engineer is more than a job.

    For us...

    ... teamwork is everything that matters. ... the practical application of studied theory is important. ... the unique chance to attend a project from the first concept until the finished product. ... excellent contacts to industry and research.

    KA-RaceIng offers...

    And last but not least...

    ... a lot of fun!
