Season Review 2023/2024: A Year Full of Challenges and Successes 🚗🏆
The 2023/2024 season was a time of growth, overcoming challenges, and gaining valuable experience for us at KA-RaceIng. With our race car, KIT24, we participated in three major international Formula Student events and achieved strong results in both the Electric Vehicle (EV) and Driverless Vehicle (DV) categories.
Formula Student Austria (FSA):
Our season began in Austria at FSA, where we competed in the EV category. We were able to secure excellent placements in several disciplines:
1st place in EV Engineering Design 🥇
1st place in Efficiency ⚡
3rd place in Endurance 🥉
2nd place overall in the EV category 🏅
These results demonstrate the dedication of our team and the technical capabilities of our race car.
Formula Student East (FSEast):
After Austria, we headed straight to Hungary for FSEast, where our focus was on the Driverless category. At this event, we set two new Formula Student records at the time:
1st place in DV Acceleration with 3.293 seconds ⏱️
1st place in DV Skidpad with 4.645 seconds 🚀
In addition, we achieved further strong placements:
1st place in EV Efficiency ⚡
3rd place in EV Endurance 🥉
2nd place in DV Engineering Design 🥈
These performances led to a 2nd place overall in the DV category and a 3rd place overall in the EV category.
Formula Student Germany (FSG):
The final event of the season took place at the Hockenheimring during FSG. Here, we competed again in both categories and achieved the following results:
1st place in Driverless Cup Engineering Design 🥇
2nd place in Electric Vehicle Engineering Design 🥈
2nd place in DV Acceleration with 3.34 seconds ⏱️
3rd place in Cost Report 🥉
Although we were unable to complete the Endurance due to technical issues, we are particularly proud to have won the Sportsmanship Award – a recognition of the team spirit and collaboration that has accompanied us throughout the entire season. 🤝
With a 5th place overall in the DV category and an 8th place overall in the EV category at FSG, we conclude the 2023/2024 season. Even though the final event didn’t go as hoped, we remain optimistic as we look forward to the next season, which begins in October. 💪
