"Together we rise"
Team Kratos Racing is a Formula student team of
Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering, comprising of 40 highly dedicated and
diligent undergraduate students from Mechanical, EnTC, Computer, Civil and First
Year department making it interdisciplinary in true sense. Putting in hours at
the workshop where sleepless nights and greasy jeans became our daily routine,
we design, manufacture and test a Formula 3 styled vehicle. We promote students
to hone their skills and execute all tasks to perfection. We exist to race in
the top echelon of motor racing starting with national level and then taking
India to the world.
Driven by our motto, “TOGETHER WE RISE”, we have successfully manufactured 3
combustions and 1 electric Formula vehicle. The genesis of the adventure began
when a few passionate minds from the college set out on this journey of forming
a Formula Student team. Holding spanners in their hands, chains around their neck,
innovation in their minds and determination in their heart, they set out on the
journey to achieve the impossible.
“WE DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE, SO WE DID IT”.
Making the ends meet, manufactured the first vehicle in the year 2015. But that
was not all that we were capable of. Brainstorming on the solutions by unified
efforts, we set in again to manufacture our next vehicle for the second season
as we stood up on the podium as the OVERALL WINNERS in 2016, 2017 and 2018 with
a combustion vehicle named Fireblade. Team Kratos racing became the only team in
India to hold the championship for three consecutive years. Hence, the legacy of
PCCOE MOTORSPORTS took its way up and there is no looking back from here.
Team Kratos Racing electric, successfully designed, manufactured and competed with
an electric vehicle named Thunderblade in Formula Bharat Electric 2019 competition
and emerged as Overall champion with nine awards and highest score of 943/1000 points
in history of Formula Bharat.
In Formula Bharat 2020, the team developed India's First
Full CFRP Monocoque Chassis and bagged yet another world record to its name. Due
to Covid-19 Pandemic, Formula Bharat 2021 was held virtually and various teams
competed on their engineering design and Team Kratos Racing emerged as a Champion yet again.
It was also awarded with a special award for Best Battery Pack Design.
Keeping up with the legacy that our mentors started we are on a quest of becoming
the epitome of hard work, team spirit and FORMULA STUDENT SUCCESS.
