31 of the around 60 participants in the GET Racing Team Dortmund e.V. come from our department!

The year 2024 was the most successful season in the club's 19-year history to date. The FS224 racing car impressed with its optimized aerodynamics and a powerful autonomous system. The aim was to complete the vehicle quickly in order to optimize the software for driverless driving and reduce the weight for the manual disciplines.

The 40-strong team demonstrated its skills at international competitions in Hungary, Germany and France. In Hungary, it won third place in the "Efficiency Award" for efficient use of electricity - its first award in over ten years. Despite storm damage in Hungary, which destroyed the autonomous system's laser sensor, the team took first place in the ZEISS Real-time Video Processing Award in Hockenheim, with prize money of €3,000.

The highlight was the overall victory at Formula Student France, the team's first official title. This success demonstrates the potential of Dortmund's engineering skills. However, this project would not have been possible without the commitment of the students and the support of sponsors such as Murtfeldt Kunststoffe.
