Scott MackenzieThe Formula Student Challenge: To design and build a single-seat racing car, which is then put to the test at the famous Silverstone Circuit!

By far the best project at university!CAD Modelling to FEA to CNC Machining

Team Go-Karting Events!

The FS project is equivalent to a whole years work experience, the most realistic project to real world engineering and highly valued by employers.
