Team Details

Racing Power Münster e.V.

Team Description

We are a relatively new team to Formula Student. Established towards the end of 2022, we spent the whole of 2023 laying the ground work for a debut in the 2024 season. With the knowledge gathered in these first years, we have now returned with our second car: the RPX-02. Close to 100 kilograms lighter than its predecessor and powered by two Emrax 188 motors with a dual chain drive system, we aim to make a significant leap in performance compared to our first ever car, the seriously obese RPX-01.
