Info
University Racing Eindhoven is proud to present their fourth operational race car that competes in the Formula Student competition, the URE05. The team has worked hard on the development of the award winning design in Class 3 of Formula Student last year (1st price Class 3 overall, 1st price Class 3 Design Event) and turned them into reality. This year, extra attention was paid to the reliability of the car together with improved vehicle dynamics.Our self developed data acquisition system enables us to verify our vehicle and tire models with infrared sensors on the tires and strain gauges on the suspension rods. This not only improved our knowledge of our innovative multilink suspension but also resulted in faster lap times. Other features of the URE05 are the 95bhp strong engine, improved driver ergonomics and lighter unsprung mass. We would like to thank our supporters in the industry and at the university – their engagement has been crucial to the success of the URE05.

Info
University Racing Eindhoven is proud to present the third operational race car that competes in the Formula Student competition, the URE 04. The URE 04 with its innovative multi-link suspension and very low centre of gravity provides an excellent handling capabilities. Besides that, the team managed to save 15 kg of weight compared to the URE 03. The chassis consists of an aluminum honeycomb monocoque in front and a steel tubular space frame at the rear, for better accessibility of the engine and components. Great improvements were made in the area of the powertrain. This includes self-designed cam shafts, dry-sump lubrication and an intake made with SLS rapid prototyping. Together with 4 weeks of tuning the engine on our own engine test bed lead to excellent driving characteristics with wide power and torque bands. Together with excellent driver ergonomics, consisting of a special designed carbon fiber seat and a multifunctional steering wheel, the URE 04 is very easy to race.
