our team
On the 6th of November 2024, Turra Blaze competed as development (dev) class in their first ever competition.This competition was a huge success and we left with awards for best engineered car in dev class, best research and development in all classes and of course the first place award that took us to nationals.

On the 26th-27th of March 2025, Turra Blaze competed at the UK National finals.
They ran some problems during racing. The bearings on the car seized up resulting in the wheels locking, in short; the wheels didn’t spin. This is obviously not good, however due to the excellent aerodynamics on the car, they didn’t finish last in racing.
Turra Blaze overall came 16th out of the 32 teams. They did get nominated for
nationals- Rotherham 25’
regionals- linlithgow 25’
On the 7th of November Turra Blaze competed in their first competition as pro class. Due to one of the Scottish competitions being cancelled it was out of the whole of Scotland.
At the competition they got nominated for the best verbal award. It wasn’t until a few days later they found out they came in 4th place, meaning they are through to Nationals 26’.
