I will post all our teams work for you to look at, although its called F1 in SCHOOLS, i have been racing for many years now and it is all possible without help + support from schools. The only thing you would need to buy would be the CO2 cartidges, if you are in america it is easy to get them from a company called pitsco.
But just a little warning, these beasts are faaast, our car cleared a 80ft track in 1.003 seconds. Only saftey you need to consider is that the car should be tied down onto the track with a piece of wire.
> The extension project from this is to build an actual F1 car, which if i get this CAM machine built i am planning i will be entering. At the end you race other universities. Very, VERY exciting! And i arnet even taking engineering at college!
Thanks guys
Eric - The budget can be around £1500 for first prototype. As I explained above, i am also looking to cut aluminium and other metals as part of this new project. Would it be more sensible to make a smaller CAM machine and just speicialise it to 1 job?
Thanks Ed
