Wacky Racers Location: Indoors/Outdoors - Duration: half or whole day - Participation: for groups of between 12 to 100 people
Re-live the days of thunder as you power your way to pole position for a place on the podium. Hand brake turns and total burn-out’s are unlikely to happen in these hand built rugged roadsters, but the ability to build a ‘Porsche eater’ from a plank and four pram wheels might just give you the edge.
From an initial budget, teams decide how much to spend on creating their own team kit car and which type of parts they want to buy. Decisions must be made as to the method of propulsion, power, wheels, frame and accessories! Each team then builds a human powered vehicle from the parts they have chosen.
Wacky Racers is based around construction and simple mechanics. It is an inter team competition comprising design, engineering skill and cutting out coloured paper! Using very simple construction techniques the teams require no automotive or engineering skills.
Once your crazy creation has been built and customised to your liking, its time to test your vehicle where it really matters – on the way out Wacky Racer Test Track.
...design flair, innovation, creativity, money management and driving skill...
