21.01.2022 Its bright and early and were ready for some action. AUMT is at Collingrove for the Hill climb with Adl-19e ready to hit the track at lunch time! So come visit us if youre around... #becauseracercar #broombroom #collingrovehillclimb #adl19e #ev #itsgotime

20.01.2022 The covers are off ADL19e! We would like to thank everyone that has made it possible for us to get where we are, and especially Applidyne for sponsoring our launch night. It has been another massive effort to get the car ready for competition, and we are excited to see our work on the track at Winton Motor Raceway. ... Again, thank you to all of our sponsors, supporters, the University of Adelaide, the friends and family, and most importantly the team members of AUMT.

20.01.2022 Today the team is out for the University of Adelaide 2020 O-Week! Come and take a look at our 2019 challenger, and talk to the team about how you can get involved. No experience is necessary, and all degrees are welcome. If you have an interest in Motorsport, Electric Vehicles, Engineering design, Business, Media or Marketing; were the club for you!... Check out our stall beside the physics building, near the Hub Central, and test your skills on our racing simulator

20.01.2022 The team absolutely licked the stamp and sent it today. We managed to be the first team to complete scrutineering, after checking off Low and High voltage system checks, the mechanical scrutineering, the tilt test and the nerve-racking rain test. Tomorrow is the static events, with design judging and our business presentation, before on track activities begin on Saturday!

19.01.2022 A massive thanks to Energus Power Solutions, Ltd. for supplying our recently arrived battery cells for the second year running! In the current rebuild of the car we plan to use the 6 cell packs to achieve significant weight reduction for our accumulators. In comparison to the 8 cell packs from 2018, this should be a great improvement.... Be sure to keep an eye on the progress of ADL-19 E as it all comes to together, thanks again to Energus for their contribution! #blessed #energy #becauseracecar #2019EV #energuspowersolutions #AUMT #FSAE #UofA #batterycells

19.01.2022 A quick team update: Hello everyone, We hope you are all doing well during this time. This year has had some unexpected events affecting everybody, which unfortunately will require us to create and adapt to some new team goals. We are currently limited in the amount of physical work which can be done during this time. Due to this, our progress has been slower than wed like it to be. We will keep you all updated during this time. We would like to thank all our Sponsors, frien...ds and family for helping us all get through this. Your support has helped us all greatly. Thank you. Yours truly, Adelaide University Motorsport Team

19.01.2022 One of our major sponsors, Calm Aluminium has been nominated in the Local Business Awards! They provide us with aluminium for all of our car (which is quite a lot!), and always help out when asked. Please follow the link and give them a vote, they not only support us, but many other FSAE-A teams, and are an invaluable member of the FSAE family!

19.01.2022 We are thrilled to announce that we have once again partnered up with SAAB engineering as a sponsor for 2020! SAAB has over 32 years of developing advanced defence, security and civil aviation systems in Australia.

16.01.2022 We are thrilled to announce that we have once again partnered up with Sporting Car Club South Australia as a sponsor for 2020! Sporting Car Club was founded in 1934, making it the second oldest car club in the world and has since been a huge part in motorsport for South Australia. Without Sporting Car Clubs vast support over the years, AUMT would not have been able to achieve this degree of success! Thank you!

15.01.2022 Another year of Formula SAE - Australasia has been run and won, and what a year it was! Highlights include matching the teams best overall result and being painfully close to an overall podium, scoring our first ever dynamic event podium with an EV and first since 2013 with third in efficiency, claiming second place in the Cost event, and completing all dynamic events and achieving the teams primary goal. Congratulations to the overall podium finishers in EV Monash Motorsp...ort, UQ Racing Formula SAE Team, UCM - University of Canterbury Motorsport, and to the whole EV field for making it such a competitive and exciting year! Also, a shoutout to fellow SA legends University of South Australia Motorsport for winning the Harry Watson award for Innovation! Results: Engineering Design: 7th Business Presentation: 14th Cost: 2nd Acceleration: 5th Skidpad: 5th Autocross: 5th Endurance: 5th Efficiency: 3rd Overall: 4th A huge thanks to all of our sponsors and The University of Adelaide for making this possible and helping with our journey since transitioning to electric. The team are back in Adelaide talking a well-deserved break, already excited to come back bigger and better in 2020 starting with FS-Sydney: Powered by ARDC!

14.01.2022 Another day, another success! AUMT managed to get through Business, Cost and Design events leaving us feeling really happy with our efforts for the day. The car was also put through its paces on the test track, giving us valuable data leading into the acceleration and skidpad events on Saturday. With this much momentum were stoked to see what the weekend holds for the team! #fsae #fsaecompetition #becauseracecar #yayeetingtosuccess #ev #winton #AUMT

14.01.2022 It is the first day of RAA Street Smart High, if you are around the Adelaide Entertainment Centre, come say hi! #AUMT #fsae #UofA #STEM

11.01.2022 Thanks to Calm Aluminium, for supplying our most recent order pictured below!

09.01.2022 First in line for acceleration, waiting for the track to open

09.01.2022 Autocross done; 4th place EV, more than 12s faster than last year, incredible work team. 95.7317s in 2018 to a spectacular 83.6406s this year. Fastest EV car on track with no wings by almost 4s. Check out the live stream of the event and this spellbinding lap at https://youtu.be/cgaRmVpMnjQ

08.01.2022 Introducing the team heads of 2020!

08.01.2022 Driving on the limit. Creating a fast car is only the beginning. To squeeze every bit of performance out of the car, the appropriate driver training is required. We are counting the days to get out on track and smash some lap times for 2020. The following footage is from the Winton FSAE Competition, 2019.

06.01.2022 We are thrilled to announce that we have once again partnered up with Applidyne Engineering Design as a sponsor for 2020! Applidyne Engineering Design has extensive experience in systems design, technical investigations, engineering analyses, product design engineering and R&D. They create innovative product designs in many different industries including automotive, mining, medical, consumer goods, defence and aviation. Without Applidyne Engineering Designs vast support over the years, AUMT would not have been able to achieve this degree of success. We would like to thank Applidyne Engineering Design greatly!

06.01.2022 Driver swap today; ADL19E was one of only two EVs that was capable of running in the balmy 37C weather of country Victoria. Truly making hay while the sun is shining. Thanks to all the other teams involved for making it a ripper day and a great way to end comp! #sendit #uniofadelaide #uofa #racing #fsae #fsaea

05.01.2022 Spring has officially sprung, thanks to Morestel Powdercoaters & Plympton Grit Blasting for their stellar work, now weve got some sick new springs! Not only this but our chassis and suspension are looking pretty sharp as well. Massive thanks to their contribution to the build this year, and looking forward to working more with them in future. #MorestelPowderCoaters #springhassprung #becauseracecar #2019EVbuild #truegrit #mirrorfinish

04.01.2022 I'm Damien, AUMT's Business Manager for 2020. I am a third-year student doing a double degree in Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, and 2020 marks my third year being involved with the team. In that time I have been involved with a variety of roles. In late 2018 I developed the charging system to aid in our transition to running an electric vehicle while supporting the engineering team as an assistant engineering manager. In 2019 I stepped into the role of Vehicle D...ynamics Subsystem Leader, which was primarily focused on guiding the subsystem with testing, modelling, and validating the performance of the suspension kinematics, dampers, wheels, and tyres, in addition to building up and expanding our VD knowledge. In stepping into the Business Manager role I have become involved with blending my technical knowledge of the project with the broader team goals and requirements. This has included communicating timely and ongoing updates to key sponsors and stakeholders as we have navigated our way through the year, as well as preparing documentation and media to support ongoing sponsor negotiations. This has also seen me take a key role in long term strategic planning and budget management decisions to ensure the long term success of AUMT. Throughout my time being a part of the team, I have experienced so many great moments. These include long car rides to competitions with friends, afternoons spent getting the car ready for an upcoming track day or working collaboratively to break down and analyse new material, all mixed with a healthy sense of humor that makes it worth spending so much time with my teammates. I look forward to seeing how our 2020 / 2021 car progresses, and I look forward to seeing the new testing and data acquisition methodologies we have been working on get put into action!

04.01.2022 Just had our first skid pan run with a smooth time of 5.8199s #fsae #fsaecompetition #winton #skidpad #becauseracecar #ev #adelaideuni #doneanddusted
