Team Description
Team StarCraft e.V., the Formula Student Team of the Technical University of Ilmenau, participated the first time in 2010 in Hockenheim. There we finished the competition with the New Comer Award. In Italy one month later, we were able to double our points.
Currently our team consists of about 35 members.
For 2011, we plan to take part in FSE with our first electric car.

Info
The TSC-01B was designed by Team Starcraft, the Formula Student team of the Technical University of Ilmenau. Thirty-five active members from all kind of semesters from engineering graduation courses as well as from economical ones are involved in that association. Its mutual intention is to enrich the students life with a challenging and practical activity, which also involves fun. Our first vehicle, the TSC-01, was already accomplished in October 2009, which has been improved until now to the TSC-01B. It is distinguished by its reliability and safety as well as its exchangeable rear frame with drive chain. This frame can be removed by only four screws and is so laying a foundation for the conversion to an electric vehicle. The current drive concept represents a light weight, but yet powerful 450ccm single cylinder engine. We are glad to be free to represent the Technical University of Ilmenau and our sponsors in the Formula Student and are eager for success at the competition in 2011.
