The new car of students of the PWR Racing Team scientific club from the Wrocław University of Technology made its debut in the Formula Student 2021 competition. Over 50 student teams from all over the world competed on the track in Assen in the Netherlands as part of Formula Student Netherlands. 

Students of Wrocław University of Science and Technology competed in the category of internal combustion vehicles with their new RT11 car. Even during the last competition Endurance and Efficiency, their timing placed it in the lead. Unfortunately, while driving, the cone was hit by the device. This unlucky moment cost the team almost half of the points possible in the competition.

Ultimately, the Wrocław team took 10th place in the general classification. Their consolation was the victory in the Skid Pad competition (time trial on the eight-shaped track) and third place in the business presentation.

The RT11 weighs 196 kg and has 87 hp on wheels. It speeds up to 100 km per hour in three seconds.
