Who is TUIasi Racing?

TUIasi Racing is Gheorghe Asachis Technical University team committed to
designing, testing, building and competing with an open-wheeled race car in the
Formula Student competition. As a recognized student organization, the TUIasi
Racing team, now in its third year, with two completed competitions and one
race car, is comprised of various majors and currently serves as a educational
project for both machine manufacturing, mechanical and electrical engineers
and to all interested in this field.
The project provides invaluable hands-on experience in automotive design
as well as project management to its participants.

What is Formula Student?

Formula Student is an engineering and design competition sponsored by
the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and automobile manufacturers
worldwide. The competition is based upon the design, manufacturability, and
performance of a student-constructed, open-wheel race car marketed for the
cost-minded weekend auto-crosses. Each year, a new chassis must be fabricated
in
compliance
with
specific guidelines set
forth by the board of
Formula Student.
The rules require
the team to be ran like a
business,
with
full
documentation on the
manufacturing
cost,
design
methodologies,
with a sales pitch, as well
as a thorough cost and
design review.

This competition is not just about building and racing a fast car, its about
learning how to create and sell the best package to a potential auto
manufacturer for mass production.
Formula Student competitions are organized worldwide, in the United
States of America, South America, Europe, Asia. With the right blend of
performance, reliability, and sponsorship, TUIasi Racing could be competing in
more than one of these competitions that are held in Europe; Formula Student
UK, Formula SAE Italy, Formula Student Germany, Formula Student Spain,
Formula Student Austria or Formula Student Hungary.
Bellow you can see the Formula Student main competitions.

History

TUIasi Racing participated in two Formula Student competitions, Formula

Student Spain in September 2012 and Formula Student Hungary in August 2013.
Last years team performed very well at the Formula Student competition held
in Hungary obtaining the 32 overall place. Other notable achievements include
taking 24th place the Acceleration event, 25th in the Engineering Design & 28th in
the Skid Pad Event. The car used a Honda CBR600 engine, had a full fiber glass
body shell and seat and a variety of machined aluminum parts. Our performance
was limited by the lack of a differential and a relatively heavy tubular
spaceframe, both solutions being imposed by limited funding.

Results Highlights
2012
Formula Student Spain

First year entry in Formula Student competitions, passed successfully the
scrutineering onto Dynamic Events;

2nd Romanian team participating.

2013
Formula Student Hungary

1st Romanian team participating at FSH ever;

Participated to all static and dynamic events.

2015 Design Goals

For the next concept we want to increase reliability and drivability based
on the experience gained from two completed competitions and decrease the
weight from 302 Kg to 240 Kg
approx. To achieve this we
need to change the steel
frame and fiber glass body to
a carbon fiber monoqoque
while maintaining adequate
safety.
Other areas which we
want to improve or to
achieve:

Limited Slip Differential ;

Fully tuned intake and exhaust for maximum horsepower;

Data acquisition system for both driver training and fine-tuning of the
vehicle configuration;

Increased driver ergonomics;

Adjustable anti-roll/sway bars;

Electro-pneumatic paddle shifters to decrease shifting times.

2015 Budget Required
Due to the new design, we will need an approximate budget as below.
The budget was calculated based on the budget of the last monopost and
taking into consideration the new ideas that we want to achieve.

Benefits of Sponsorship
Any support to the team, either financial or in-kind (services, products or
materials) is completely tax-deductible. Sponsors will receive local, national and
international attention. The level of sponsorship is matched by an equal amount
of exposure. At the most basic level, you will receive nationwide (and potentially
worldwide) advertising on the side of a high-performance race car.
Your support proves your commitment to provide the (aspiring engineers,
publicists, marketing agents, computer programmers, accountants, and) college
students with invaluable experience and education in a real-world project as they
prepare to move from university work to a job in the industry. The unique
opportunity of helping a new program allows your organization not only to be
the cornerstone of what is becoming a major aspect of the engineering program

2014-2015

at the Gheorghe Asachi Univerity, but also a major contender in the annual
competition. As TUIasi Racing continues to grow, your support will undoubtedly
be recognized as the foundation for (what will prove to be a promising) the future
of many students to come.
Sponsors who decide to join TUIasi Racing will help us tackle the first
important hurdle of the project, funding. This would allow our creativity and
ingenuity to be focused on designing, testing, and constructing a highly
competitive car.
Based on the sponsorship that we receive from your company, you will be
classified as per below.
