Without a break, we continued on to FSEast, where new challenges awaited us. After the setback at FSA, the mood was somewhat subdued, but our team once again demonstrated how far our motivation can take us.
Despite the mechanical failure, we didn't let it stop us. We made significant progress on the very first day: we passed the majority of the mechanical scrutineering, and our statistical disciplines, such as the business plan and the cost report, received very positive feedback.
The second day involved intensive work on the car to prepare for the scrutineering sessions scheduled for Wednesday after the delivery of our new wheel carrier. We gave it our all in the Engineering Design category, and for the first time in CTM's history, we made it to the Cost and Manufacturing finals.
The dynamic events began with Skidpad and Acceleration. Despite minor difficulties in post-scrutineering, we delivered good results, and at the same time, the knowledge of our cost crew was put to the test in the final.
The autocross day was also a success: all four rounds were completed, and our AERIS showed its potential on the track.
The final day was dedicated to endurance. Here we actually managed to achieve our goal: our AERIS crossed the finish line after 22 km – a moment we had worked towards for a long time. Unfortunately, post-scrutineering led to a disqualification due to technical problems.
With our fully air-cooled powertrain, we were able to secure the “Powertrain Innovation” Award, sponsored by Garret Motion.
