Team Details

Global Formula Racing is an internationally collaborative Formula Student team from Oregon State University and DHBW Ravensburg. Each year we build two cars, one combustion, and one electric, sharing chassis, aerodynamics and suspension packages. In addition, we are also competing with a driverless car this season. GFR19c features an in-direct acting suspension package designed for the 16" Hoosier tire. We look forward to seeing you in Hockenheim and answering any questions you may have!

Global Formula Racing is an internationally collaborative Formula Student team from Oregon State University and DHBW Ravensburg. Each year we build two cars, one combustion, and one electric, sharing chassis, aerodynamics and suspension packages. GFR18c features a redesigned aerodynamic package that produces more downforce at different vehicle attitudes. We look forward to seeing you in Hockenheim and are pleased to answer any of your questions so stop by our pit!

Global Formula Racing is an internationally collaborative FSAE team from Oregon State University and DHBW Ravensburg. Together we build two cars, one combustion, one electric, every year, sharing chassis, aerodynamics and suspension packages. GFR17c is equipped with more power at less weight. We are looking forward to seeing you in Hockenheim and we are pleased to answer any of your questions about our team and the car so stop by our pit!

Students from Oregon State University and Duale Hochschcule Baden-Wuerttemberg-Ravensburg together form Global Formula Racing, the world's first and only internationally collaborative FS Team.

GFR14c is their fifth combustion car. As with all GFR cars, GFR14c is a collaborative effort between teammembers from Oregon State University and Duale Hochschule Baden Wurttemberg Ravensburg. Design, manufacturing, assembly and testing occur at both schools. The cCar will compete at four competitions: FSAE Michigan, FSG, FSA, and FSS. Are you #GFReady?

Global Formula Racing is the first international collaboration of its kind in the history of both, the US-based Formula SAE and the EU-based Formula Student programs. The former BA-Racing-Team from Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg (DHBW) and the Beaver Racing team from Oregon State University (OSU) have combined forces to compete as a single entity 2010. The two universities share physical and intellectual resources by using advanced communication-technology to create a highly competitive vehicle. Design, manufacturing, and testing occur simultaneously at both schools. The supply chain management is unique in Formula Student and very important for cross-border cooperation. The 2010 car laid down a foundation, that since, is being continuously improved. In 2013 we will, for the third time, build a combustion car at OSU and an electrical car at DHBW.

Our 2009 entry is a large step forward from last year, including a composite monocoque chassis and a single cylinder engine. We removed over 30 kg (70 lbs) compared to our previous entry, achieving a vehicle mass of 150 kg (330 lb)! Large diameter aluminum spindles and CNC machined uprights increase the stiffness and reduce the weight of our outboard package. The custom limited slip differential further reduces weight and allows us a wide range of tuning. We look forward to the 2009 competition series and invite you all to visit our pit for further information about Beaver Racing.
