Team Description

After mean success in 2007 and 2008, the 2009 Season of Formula Racing Cologne was very successful. While competing in Silverstone the CC09 made its first meters in the home of British Motorsport. During the endurance run we saw a fast and nearly reliable car, and won the "Best individual Driver" Award. For Hockenheim we merged out the problems noticed in England and finally reached our aim - the overall top 10. With the most powerful engine we won the "Best Dynamometer Performance" Award. We are very happy with the other results and look forward to the next season.

For 2010 the CC-X will be a straight evolution of the 2009 car. The main goals are: saving weight, increasing reliability, reinforcing the engine and tuning the suspension. At least we want to defend the results of 2009, raise our performance and our professional appearance.

In 2010 the UAS Cologne also attends in the Formula Student Electric for the first time with the 2008 car modified to the rules of FSE. We hope to be succesful there, too.

Car #60

Info

Formula Racing Cologne is proud to present their next Formula Student car, the CC09. Having started at Formula Student competition in Hockenheim 2007 and 2008, we gathered a lot of experience to improve our design for the new car. In 2008, the CC08 showed a good performance in the dynamic events but unfortunately we did not finish the endurance race. So the main goal for 2009 was clear: To built a reliable but light weight car! The new CC09 is a straight evolution of our car from 2008. All important load cases were rechecked and trough redesigning a lot of parts we were able to achieve a loss of weight. In addition to that the usage of approved components kept the costs low. All in all we think we are good prepared for the event and archive our most important goal: ending up on a place among the “Top 10” teams. We would like to thank our supporters and sponsors for sticking with us and without whom this new car would not have been possible.

2008

Car #90

Info

After competing with the first car in 2007, the Team of UAS Cologne went home, full of great ideas for the new car. Some of them were discarded, but most of them made it to the CC08. The lighter and stiffer frame and the specially designed dampers are some of the highlights. The gas exchange of the new Yamaha R6 engine was recalculated and new camshafts were ground. Former mistakes, like the undersized cooling system or the very high weight of the car were eliminated by clever ideas and recalculation of most of the parts. With this evolutionary redesigned car, we are much more of a competition this year. The team has grown both in number and skill and is eager to prove that the new concepts are capable of bringing us among the top ranking teams. We would like to thank our many supporters and sponsors for sticking with us and without whom this new and beautiful racecar would not have been possible.
