Rally Car Side Slip

Introduction: A joint project between The Forest Experience and Metis Engineering to show how motion and positioning data from the Metis suite of sensors can be used to better support the optimum setup of a rally car. We focused specifically on the recording data to allow accurate quantification of the vehicles sideslip angle. Understanding this parameter allows informed tuning/selection of:

• Differential
• Suspension
• Brakes
• Tyres
