Team Details

PWR Racing Team was formed in 2009 and since then has built 11 combustion cars. We have started as a place for students interested in automotive and now we are the biggest science club at our university, with 80 people on board. We design and build a vehicle but moreover we share the same positive energy and passion. We’ve come a long way since the first car. We’ve improved our skills and gained experience and it led us to win again!

PWR Racing Team, founded in 2009, is proud to participate for 8th time in Formula Student Germany. Our latest race car - RTX - is designed and built by 50 team members, on the basis of 10 years of experience. Powered by Honda CBR600 engine, RTX comes up with autoclave-made CFRP monocoque, pushrod actuated suspension and ultralight military grade wiring harness. Thanks to redesigned aerodynamics package, new Hoosier tires and CFRP rims we’ve reached significant increase in performance.

PWR Racing Team is proud to present their ninth Formula Student car - RT09. Today the team counts 60 team members, who are divided into six departments. In 2017 for the first time in polish history we won the whole Formula Student competition – FSAE Italy. We also won Acceleration event for the second year in row. In RT09 aerodynamics package has been upgraded, we’ve made telemetry system and we’ve implemented graphical 4.3’ display built in steering wheel.

PWR Racing Team was founded in 2008, since that we designed and built six class 1 cars. In 2016 we were the fastest combustion car in Formula Student Germany and Formula Student UK in acceleration event. We also win Skidpad event in Formula Student Czech Republic. In RT08 we upgraded aerodynamic package and CFRP monocoque. This year we rely on the ergonomics of our car.

PWR Racing Team was founded in 2008, since that we designed and built five class 1 cars. In 2014 we set goal to build the simple and reliable car: solid base for future vehicle. With this car we managed to reach 9th place overall in FSAE Michigan and Formula Student UK 2015 and 10th in Formula Student Germany. This year we designed first aerodynamic package and CFRP monocoque. We worked many days and nights designing, building and testing our vehicle, enjoying every second spent together.

PWR Racing Team has been established in 2008. Since then 1 virtual project and 4 physical cars have been created. The last car – RT05 – is definitely the most successful one. It is a simple construction based on steel space frame and Honda CBR 600RR engine. The idea behind the design was to create a good base for future development. With several completed events, including FSAE Italy and FSAE Michigan, the car proves to be reliable and easily serviceable, while maintaining top performance.

PWR Racing Team is proud to present RT03 – third car of the team. This build was a great breakthrough for the team. Main area of interest was weight reduction and new materials. For the first time steel frame was replaced with monocoque. Honda CBR600RR engine was dropped in favor of KTM 450SX, which is half as heavy. Turbocharger introduction, together with E85 fuel, provides competitive amount of torque and power. Further weight optimization was done on all elements. These new technologies were challenging but helped to reduce vehicle weight below 180kg. The team consists of 30 students from several faculties at Wroclaw University of Technology and a designer from Academy of Art and Design. Divided into technical and marketing/financial teams, PWR Racing Team members have worked hard to design and build a competitive race car. Group of curious and open-minded people from different backgrounds again, have proven that competitive race cars can be built in Poland.

PWR Racing Team is proud to present RT02 - the second car build by the team. Boosted by the great reception of our first car RT01, high goals were set for the new build. With the help of advanced managerial tools we could divide the tasks between the right persons and increase the performance of the whole team. One of the most interesting features of the new car is the frame - which is a two-piece - which increases the ease of servicing and fine tuning. A lot of effort was put into engine performance. Thanks to the switch to E85 a higher compression pistons could be fitted. This together with high performance exhaust and variable length intake manifold results in a powerful engine. RT02 was also our first car where carbon fibre was introduced on such high scale. Wishbones, drive-axles aje just the few main things which were produced out of this material. We would like to than out University, our Sponsors and everyone who helped during the build of this car. Hockenheim - we are coming!

PWR Racing Team is a group of 20 students from Wroclaw University of Technology. In 2009 as a new team, our virtual car RT09 achieved a 7th place in the third class competition on Silverstone. These results show that our team can be one of the main favorites this year. The new RT01 car is built on knowledge gained from previous year. We are aware that as newcomers in class 1 it is a great challenge to design and build a car that can compete with the best teams. That is why we put emphasis on mass reduction and innovation. In a four cylinder engine of Honda CBR 600 we found the heart of our vehicle. Our custom-made shock absorbers allow us to obtain the desired suspension characteristics. Despite mechanical advantages we cooperate constantly with a designer from Academy of Fine Arts to achieve modern body shape. We would like to thank our University, our Sponsors and everyone who helps us to build this car. We wish all Formula Students teams the best of luck.
