context_section_description: The K-2.2 was the upgraded and improved version of K2. The car was powered by a Honda CBR 600RR engine. A consequential improvement could be seen in the car. A new impact attenuator was added and the intake diffuser, throttle body and air filter had been changed. Another addition to the K2.2 was the new Scorpion Carbon fibre muffler, which was the first carbon fiber part of the car. The size of the radiator fan had also been increased for better performance.
  The team participated in Formula Design Challenge 2015 and passed technical scrutiny. Although a seized engine prevented the team from taking part in the dynamic events, nonetheless it was a great learning experience for the whole team. The team bagged the first runners up position in Business Presentation and Cost Report, second in Business Plan Presentation & second in Cost and Manufacturing Report.
