Testimonials
Both seminars that I did (Vehicle Dynamics and Data Driven) were amazing, the amount of content cover during both periods were intense, but the lecturers managed to keep everyone interested. I can say that my understanding in vehicle dynamics and data increased a lot after doing the seminars, a lot of practical examples were used as well the experience from Claude and others has helped for the seminar be so valuable.

I am using OptimumLap in my lecture “Race Car Data Analysis” to sensitize the students what’s important in racing. OptimumLap is very easy to use and it takes the students about ten minutes to make their first laptime simulations. They are able to create sensitivity studies for different tracks and virtually race against each other. I will use OptimumTire in my lecture “Tire Modelling” starting next autumn to show the students the process from measured raw data to a usable tire model. They will create their own tire models from raw data and compare different tire models.

I met Claude for the first time in 2000 in Paris as I attended his Vehicle Dynamics Seminar. Being still a student, I stayed in touch with him and later on I chose to complete my end of studies internship within OptimumG. Thinking about it now, this was probably the best start I could give to my racing career. Claude’s teaching skills made me understand very quickly and efficiently the basics of racing engineering. These notions learnt within OptimumG quickly became very sharp weapons to perform in the highly competitive world of international motorsport. Learning the basics and mostly understand how to apply them to solve practical problems on track is, to my point of view, what makes the difference when it comes to win races. I definitely recommend OptimumG for young and passionate engineers who wish to quickly fill up their racing engineering toolbox.

I had joined OptimumG in the summer of 2005 after graduating from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a degree in mechanical engineering. While my experience in FSAE at Cal Poly taught me an enormous amount, my time at OptimumG really brought all the concepts together. The OptimumG internship program really helped to set me apart from other job applicants and allowed me to get my first job with a professional race team. Since then, I’ve been able to be a part of multiple championships and countless race wins. However, I think the most rewarding part has been being a design judge at FSAE competitions alongside Claude and other former OptimumG interns.
