Overview
- Red Bull Advanced Technologies digitally scanned and recreated the 964 monocoque, using Finite Element Analysis to pinpoint torsional weak points.
- The fix consists of 13 carbon-fiber structures bonded to the steel shell during Singer’s restoration process.
- Singer and Red Bull report a 175% gain in torsional rigidity with benefits to handling precision, braking consistency, and overall refinement.
- A correlated digital model was matched to physical test data, followed by a prototype build to verify the simulations before implementation.
- The reinforcement package is integrated into Singer’s Classic Turbo Cabriolet and Targa commissions with a focus on minimal added weight and preserved packaging.
