Team Profile
Glyndwr Racing is coming back to Formula Student this year. We have a structured, well informed and oriented team and want to make our mark on the Formula Student scene. With local motorsport legends such as John Godfrey Parry-Thomas, an engineer and motor-racing driver who at one time held the Land Speed Record as our inspiration, we have a rich racing heritage to live up to. The team comprises of many students from different countries working together because we all have the same dream and we want to accomplish it. We rely on optimisation and simplicity rather than sophistication.
