Predecessor: Electric Bike Team

Our team’s history starts with the University of Nottingham (UoN) Electric Bike Team. The highly-successful team of researchers and students achieved three podium finishes at Isle of Man TT Zero, 2016-2018. They inspired us to branch out into other modes of electric motorsports.

Early days: all-wheel drive car

UoN Racing Team started with an ambitious goal: we wanted to make the UK’s first all-wheel drive electric Formula Student car. This meant developing a custom powertrain, from battery to motors and all the software behind it. It was a fantastic learning curve for the team, but we needed better reliability. 

 

 

Success in 2021

In 2021, we switched to a two-wheel drive Formula Student car and designed a new car, Frankie. We worked to the 11th hour (and used up two brake master cylinders!) and our determination paid off… Frankie came first out of the electric vehicles and third overall. The Business Plan team also won their event by beating 100+ other university teams!
