Built to Race. Designed to Develop.
Rocky Top Racing is a student-led collegiate motorsports organization based in Knoxville, Tennessee. Our team brings students together around a shared passion for racing, engineering, creativity, and competition.
Members take an active role in the development and operation of the team. Depending on their interests, students may contribute to vehicle preparation, mechanical work, fabrication, data analysis, logistics, fundraising, partnerships, photography, video production, social media, or event operations.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create an environment where students can build practical skills, take on meaningful responsibility, and work together toward a common competitive goal.
Through motorsports, we help members develop technical knowledge, leadership abilities, professional relationships, and real-world experience that extends far beyond the racetrack.
What makes the team different
A race car does not reach the track through engineering alone. It requires funding, planning, communication, transportation, promotion, teamwork, and the ability to solve problems under pressure.
Rocky Top Racing allows students from a variety of backgrounds and areas of study to participate in that complete process. Every member has an opportunity to contribute, learn, and leave the team stronger than they found it.
