Team Details

Who are we? The Rennteam Uni Stuttgart was founded in 2005 and has since built up an impressive history in Formula Student. What are we planning to do this season? Besides the switch to a new tire size we developed a plug and play hybrid system, which marks a big step in our history. Since it will be the last year combustion vehicles are allowed to participate at FSG we tried to maximize our performance on track. But trust us, it won't be the last time you will see the Rennteam in action. ;)

We - the Rennteam Uni Stuttgart - are very proud to be part of the Formula Student Germany for the sixteenth time now. After just missing the podium last year we are more eager than ever to succeed again this year! To prevail against the strong competition we focused on our overall package with attention on reliability and manufacturing quality and a well rounded and extensively tested vehicle setup. Complete - Finish - Win!

We - the Rennteam Uni Stuttgart - are very proud to be part of Formula Student Germany for the 15th time. After our breakdown in Endurance 2019 and the cancellation in 2020, we are highly motivated to achieve overall victory this year. To prevail against the strong competition, we have focused our attention on the manufacturing quality of our components, new lightweight construction concepts and a well-rounded and extensively tested vehicle setup. Complete - Finish - Win!

We - the Rennteam Uni Stuttgart - are very proud to be part of the Formula Student Germany for the fourteenth time now. After our long-awaited success in 2018 we are highly motivated to win again. To prevail against the strong competition we focused on our new monocoque with attention on manufacturing quality, new lightweight concepts and a well rounded and extensively tested vehicle setup. Complete - Finish - Win!

We - the Rennteam Uni Stuttgart - are very proud to be part of the Formula Student Germany for the thirteenth time now. After making the podium for 6 years in a row but never quite reaching first place we are more eager than ever to succeed this year! To prevail against the strong competition we focused on our aerodynamic package with attention on manufacturing quality, new lightweight concepts and a well rounded and extensively tested vehicle setup. Complete - Finish - Win!

We - the Rennteam Uni Stuttgart - are very proud to be part of the Formula Student Germany for the twelfth time now. After the most successful season of our team history last year, we still need to prove that we can win with our concept on the extremely demanding track of Hockenheim and improve our second place from 2016. A lot of effort was put in the package of the car and the vehicle dynamics so that we can perform even better, when it comes to the dynamics. Complete - Finish - Win!

The know-how of 11 years Rennteam Uni Stuttgart comes together with innovative ideas in the car's development. As flexibility plays a big role for us, we have built a chassis that consists of a CFRP-monocoque and a steeltube-rearframe to ease maintenance on engine- and drivetrain parts. To keep the innovative engineering solutions up to date, we have improved our aerodynamic package and our heave spring which together assure lightweight and increase vehicle dynamics.Complete Finish Win!

The know-how of 10 years Rennteam Uni Stuttgart come together with innovative ideas in the car's development. As flexibility plays a big role for us, we have built a chassis that consists of a CFRP-monocoque and a steeltube-rearframe to ease maintenance on engine- and drivetrain parts as well as the rearframe’s wiring harness. To keep the innovative engineering solutions up to date, we have developed a third-spring-suspension that assures lightweight and increases corner performance.

Existing since 2005 Rennteam Uni Stuttgart is proud to present its 7th car in 2012. Most of the active team members spend almost all their time in building and testing the car to prepare for competitions and achieve the goal to win. The concept is a lightweight 10” wheeled car with a powerful 4 Cylinder Honda engine. The Team is known for its very special and lightweight uprights, like one can see on this years car. Various Highlights show the quality and competitiveness of the car.

Since the foundation in 2005 one of the most important reasons for success of Rennteam Uni Stuttgart was to set clear goals right from the beginning of development of every new car. By having the focus on completing the car as fast as possible the aims of finishing the endurance and winning the competition complete the three major goals in development of the F0711-6. The long period of intensive car testing ensures a reliable and powerful racecar. In order to reduce both, weight and fuel consumption, several new concepts have been implemented. The CFRP Monocoque with a tubular space frame rear was chosen to improve accessibility and maintenance of the entire power train. Every detail of the suspension system was redesigned resulting in further weight reduction. With the F0711-6 the Rennteam has once more managed to build a competitive car. Looking forward to meeting the international competition, the team is excited for the Formula Student Germany Event 2011.

Right from the beginning of building our first race car we worked according to some basic principles. Set clear goals and milestones. Get the car done in time. Finish the endurance and win the competition.Keeping the time schedule tight allows us to have the first test run in the middle of April. So our 2010 car, the F0711-5, was actually tested for more than two months before it took part at the first competition. Our technical goals for the F0711-5 have been to reduce weight of our CFRP monocoque and to improve our engine design to save fuel and to have higher torque at lower rpms. The self built 4 speed gear box improves drivability and a strict lightweight design forced every detailed part to raise performance. So we are really looking forward to be competitive again and to be able to repeat last year’s success. Thanks to all our sponsors who gave us the opportunity to compete at FSG once more. We will try our best to defeat our overall victory from 2009.

From the beginning of the existence of our team we worked according to some basic principles. One of them is that we set clear goals at the beginning of a season. Our goals for this year are: get the car done in time - finish - win. Especially the first point is important to be able to have a competitive car at the competitions. The first test run of our 2009-car, the F0711-4, was at the end of April. So we could test it for more than two months before we took it to the first competition. The biggest change this year is that we built a CFRP-Monocoque instead of a spaceframe. The monocoque gave us more freedom in designing the suspension kinematics and higher stiffness. We also optimized our engine design to save fuel and to have higher torque at low rpms. Of course we also tried to optimize every detail of the car to be very competitive again and to have a good chance to win this year.

The Rennteam Uni Stuttgart competes its 3rd year in Formula Student Germany. After being the best German team 2006, the team finished 1st Overall in 2007. The second-year car "F0711-2B" started in three other Formula SAE Events, bringing home impressive results: Silverstone: 3rd place. Italy: 1st place. Michigan, USA: 2nd place. The "F0711-2B" therefore was a solid basis for designing the new car. In fact, most of our team members were satisfied with the existing solutions and therefore took a year off instead of working hard on improving an outstanding racing car. We just made little adjustments like a dry sump oil supply or carbon fibre rims. After that the car was sent out on the track for fitness improvements with two main goals: Reduce weight and gain power.The result is amazing: The achieved weight reduction adds up to 15 per cent whereas the engine power was increased by 13 per cent. The "F0711-3" is looking forward to meeting its competitors, burning a lot of fuel and rubber.
