The design of a race car is one of the most demanding aspects of Motorsport Engineering in terms of cost and time. This page is dedicated to gather relevant information on the race car design process. Here you will learn:
- What are the steps in a race car design process
- How to analyse the competition in order to identify goals
- The tools available to the designers that ensure that design goals are met
You can read all the posts about Race Car Design from Racing Car Dynamics here:

Many books are available concerning the design process itself. However, only a few have a thorough analysis of the steps involved in the process. Among these, I found these particularly useful:
- Racing and Sports Car Chassis Design, by Michael Costin and David Phipps
- Engineer to Win, by Carroll Smith
- Race Car Vehicle Dynamics, by William F. Milliken and Douglas L. Milliken
As new articles on this subject are written, I will add them here in an organized manner, for your better experience.
