Our Journey at Formula Student

FORMULA STUDENT

Formula SAE (FSAE) is an engineering design competition providing university students with the challenge to conceive, design, fabricate and compete with a small formula-style racing car. With engineering development in mind, SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) sanctions FSAE through specific rules and regulations that engage student knowledge, creativity, and imagination. Team must respond to real world obstacles in systems engineering design and problem solving, as well as hone skills such as communication and leadership. Since its creation in 1981, FSAE has been instrumental in enhancing mobility engineering worldwide.

Static Event

Formula Student is about more than simply developing the fastest car. It’s about engineering, business strategy, and cost-effectiveness. In Static Events, team face three key tests: Business Plan Presentation, where they pitch a viable business model; Cost and Manufacturing, which assesses cost management and production efficiency; and Engineering Design, which evaluates the innovation, functionality, and feasibility of their technical solutions.

Dynamic Event

Dynamic Events in Formula Students pushed engineering and driving skills to the edge. Dynamic Events consist of four key tests: Skidpad, which evaluates a car’s grip and balance on a circular track; Acceleration, where teams showcase raw power and traction in a short sprint; Autocross, a challenging course with tight curves and slaloms that test agility and precision; and Endurance & Efficiency, the ultimate trial of reliability and energy management over a long-distance race.

OUR JOURNEY

UI Racing Team’s journey began in 2018 with its first international competition at Formula Student Japan, marking the start of its presence on the global stage. From building everything from the ground up to overcoming early challenges, the team laid a strong foundation for growth. Through the years, the team continuously evolved, adapting to new challenges, including the shift to online competitions during the pandemic.
