THM-Motorsport is made up of 15 students from different faculties.
THM-Motorsport’s entry into FSUK 2016 represents an improved version of the very successful concept from 2015 that gained our team the 3rd place in last year’s competition in Italy.
The car features a modified Honda CBR 600 PC40 engine and has a three speed gearbox to suit formula student needs.
Our frame was rebuilt and the bodywork has been optimized.
Many thanks to our sponsors, especially Technische-Hochschule-Mittelhessen, Schunk-Group, Volk GmbH and Adam Opel AG.
