Who we are

Students today. Pioneers in ambition.

A tachyon is a theoretical particle that travels faster than light — a symbol of what lies beyond the known limits. We are a team that refuses to accept boundaries as permanent.

Behind every millisecond gained is a team that refuses to settle. Tachyons is built on trust, shared discipline, and a collective drive to be the best version of ourselves — together.

Who we are

Our story

Tachyons was born in Genoa with a single conviction: a small team from a coastal Italian city could compete — and win — at the highest level of STEM Racing.

Three competitive seasons later, we've raced at Regional Qualifications, Semi Finals and the National Finals, refining everything from aerodynamic geometry to portfolio storytelling. Every car, every drawing, every presentation is the product of late nights, blunt critique and an obsession with marginal gains.

We design like engineers, present like a brand, and race like a team that has something to prove. Because we do.
