Riteh Racing Team is the FS team from the University of Rijeka, Croatia.  We have twelve members which study Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering. Now we are making our 2nd car, RRC11, which is an evolution of our 1st car, RRCX. Our main goals are lower weight, increased reliability and better performance in general. Compared with 2010, we have 7 new members so we can concentrate on more details than before. The combination of experienced members and new ideas are going to help us accomplish our goals for this season.
