Turn 1: Frame & Aerodynamics
Designing a lightweight, high-rigidity chassis frame and aerodynamic fairings to ensure high-speed stability.
WHO KEEPS IT RUNNING
A race bike doesn't win without a world-class support crew. These three verticals power the business, outreach, and operational infrastructure of NexaVelo.
Business & Sponsorship
Managing team budget, securing industry sponsorships, pitching to partners, and handling financial operations.
Media & Public Relations
Documenting our engineering build journey through video, photography, social media management, and official reports.
Logistics & Operations
Coordinating workshop safety, inventory management of prototype components, and competition logistics.
WHERE WE COMPETE
NexaVelo competes in international-level motorsport engineering competitions, putting our prototype race motorcycle and team skills to the test on real tracks.
MotoStudent
UPCOMING CAMPAIGNMotoStudent is the premier international university motorcycle engineering competition. Student teams design, develop, and construct a real high-performance prototype race motorcycle under strict FIM technical regulations.
1140 TOTAL POINTS SPLIT
Industrial design project, structural FEA analysis, cost & manufacturing plan, powertrain innovation, and technical presentation to industry judges.
Dynamic track tests: acceleration, mechanical braking distance, gymkhana handling course, and a final track evaluation race.
Student Moto Tech Challenge
UPCOMINGIndia's first international-level motorsport engineering competition focused on two-wheeler technologies, organized by CRA Motorsports. A multi-phase challenge combining virtual training, onsite technical bootcamps, and trackside performance events.
Certification Modules
Online training covering vehicle dynamics, telematics, and racing operations fundamentals.
Technical Bootcamps
In-person instruction on ECU remapping, suspension setup, tire management, and team strategy.
Trackside Challenges
Live events at Kari Motor Speedway including pit stop execution, drag runs, and time attacks.
ENGINEERING PURPOSE & VISION
Why NexaVelo is more than a university club — 5 core pillars defining engineering excellence at Amrita.
Real Competition Prototype Machine
Not a theoretical CAD assignment or scale model. We construct a fully functioning high-performance race motorcycle engineered to FIM technical regulations.
Cross-Discipline Engineering
Unifies Mechanical (chassis/FEA), Electrical & ECE (wiring harness/sensors), CSE (telemetry models), and Business operations into one team.
Global University Stage
Represents Amrita School of Engineering on the international grand prix stage alongside 86+ premier engineering universities.
Sustainable Powertrain Focus
Pioneering eco-friendly fuel calibration and sustainable powertrain development aligned with MotoStudent regulations.
Motorsport & Automotive Pipeline
Provides hands-on experience in chassis fabrication, telemetry analytics, and race weekend operations highly valued by automotive OEMs.
ORGANIZATION & ROSTER
Structured like a professional paddock crew: clear leadership hierarchy, explicit vertical ownership, and documented handovers.
FACULTY HEAD
Department Oversight & Institutional Approval
TEAM CAPTAIN
Project Governance & Competition Lead
VICE CAPTAIN
Operations & Technical Execution Lead
HOW DO I GET ONE OF THESE 30 SEATS?
Selection is based on enthusiasm, willingness to learn, and commitment to race deadlines. Open to Mechanical, ECE, CSE, and Business students.
THE 14-MONTH ROADMAP
From initial CAD blueprint freeze to track launch. Honest timeline planning with official MotoStudent milestone gates.
Team Recruitment & Initial Design
Recruiting student engineers across technical verticals. Setting up CAD workspace, workshop baseline, and initial chassis concepts.
MOTOSTUDENT RACE WEEKEND
