Our motor sport design process combines the experience of Mark Skaife with our team’s innovative engineering skills.
Our relationship with Skaife Racing stretches back to the Canberra 400, in 1999. Our teams are integrated in our approach to the delivery of our motor sport projects, with Skaife Racing providing the driver and technical motor sport design advice to inform the specialist iEDM design team’s approach to any particular site.
iEDM / Skaife Racing is recognised as one of seven international circuit designers by the FIA as part of the Industry Working Group.
Information and modelling on speeds, dynamics, driver behaviour and vehicle engineering data is blended with practical geometric design to ensure entertaining, challenging and safe circuits. We take a best-in-class approach to ensure world class results.
Our design team has extensive experience in providing homologation drawings to FIA standard to gain project approval or to amend specific parts of a circuit.
A race circuit is an environment with some seriously critical engineering considerations.
Circuit infrastructure requires capability to contain high speed vehicles, whilst absorbing energy for drivers’ safety. It is nearly guaranteed to experience high impact, needs to have longevity and be value for money; It has to restrict debris, but allow spectator viewing. There are countless factors that need to be considered which need an adaptable, flexible and creative engineering approach.
iEDM’s integrated team of designers, engineers and project managers have over 20 years’ experience in the application of engineering principles to the design of all elements of motor sport facilities.
Over the last 10 years in particular, we have worked with international experts, leading drivers and other circuit design groups to further the research and development of track and circuit hardware.
Our experience includes the design and the delivery of the following items:
iEDM, with Skaife Racing, offer a unique service which specialises in applying audit or design solutions to existing circuits.
