Steering
The steering rack during construction The steering system uses a student design and built steering rack. This rack uses a pinion and shortened and modified rack gear from a Renault in a custom housing assembly. Manufacturing a custom steering rack enabled USQ Motorsport to obtain 100% Ackerman geometry while keeping cost low. The tie rods are parallel with the upper wishbone which minimises bump steer. The turning circle is 6.5 metres with a rack ratio of 320 degrees lock to lock.
