TXST Formula SAE Drivetrain System.
Sponsor: Bobcat Racing
Student Team: Noah Contreras, Jasper Greenall, Ricardo Melendez Rivera, Nicholas Sarbeck
Project Advisor(s): Dr. Sevan Gonezen
Faculty Instructor: Dr. Karim Muci
The 2026 Formula SAE vehicle requires a high-performance Final Drive System (FDS) to effectively transfer power from the Yamaha FZ6 engine to the rear wheels. We have been tasked by Bobcat Racing to design and develop a reliable, lightweight and Formula SAE rule compliant FDS for efficient power delivery. The outlined future vehicle plan is to use this subsystem as a structural member of the vehicle. By following the concept generation stage of the product development process we will deliver a selected concept for the Final Drive System (FDS) as we continue into testing and manufacturing in D2 next semester.
