Team Profile
YTU Racing, The Formula Student team at Yildiz Technical University consists of 15 students studying mechanical, electrical and industrial engineering.
YTU Racing is created in 2011 and started this dream with Formula Student 2012 events in Class 2/A. This experience created our design philosophy: Design, Analyze, Prototype & Test, Re-design, Final product.
As a first year car, the main objective was to create a consistent and durable car but even so our test&re-design process showed us how we can make some mass reductions using aluminum and we already reconditioned our bell crank, upright and differential case structures.
We would like to thank our sponsors who helped us to realize that dream: Hexagon Studio, CIAT, Repkon, Topçam Machinery, Öztiryakiler, Demiral Machinery, SKF, Koçel, Volkan Isik Academy, Hidromek, IPG, Tekyaz, Figes, Flosoft, ISO, Platformas

Additional information
Our car YTR01 also called “night owl” because of our late night shifts, This owl already showed us essentials of design and engineering, we wish it will bring luck to all Formula Student 2014 participants.
