Car #30

Info

We are the 1st ranked formula student racing team among Africa and Egypt universities since 2012 in Silverstone. It took us 2 years to build and manufacture a reliable combustion car which can carry out all the events including the endurance. Thanks to KTM single cylinder engine we achieved weight reduction which provides maneuverability, flexibility and simplicity.

Engineering Design Priorities:

simplicity speed safety reliability Weight reduction Competitiveness
