The TU Graz Racing Team has been a part of the global Formula Student
Community for 15 years. Founded in 2002 at the Technical University
in Graz we can look back at a great history of building even greater
Cars.
TANKIA 2017 is set to continue this trend as the 14th iteration of
the TANKIA story. And what a continuation it is! Utilizing a brand
new CFRP - Monocoque, a new aerodynamic concept, a new
suspension design, a new engine genaration and many other new
design Details, “Victoria” could be the fastest TANKIA to ever
leave our Workshop.
With that in mind, the team is looking forward to hopefully
achieving fantastic results at different Formula Student Events
this summer; especially of course at our home event in
Spielberg.
Behind the scenes, the team consists of around 40 students
working hard to get our cars ready for competitions all
over Europe and even the USA or Japan. Even though
most of our team members are engineering students,
the challenges of Formula Student still provide for a
wide field of possibilities for other studies such as
Business, Marketing or even Graphic Design. As a
result the TU Graz Racing Team is a great mixture
of different personalities, experiences and
expertises all commited to a single, common goal:
giving our best to achieve the best results during
the 2017 season with Victoria!
