With the car looking more complete every day we are now proud to announce the official launch of the new car. It will be on Wednesday 16th June, 5:30-7:00 and will be in the Dining Hall at Richard Lander School. There will be representatives of our sponsors and press alongside the team and their families.
On a construction note, the foam block for the rear cowling was bonded together with the ply stringer in the middle. The foam is from a paddle board blank which was donated by Homeblown. The foam itself is not particularly eco-friendly but it is a reject so would have ended up in landfill if we hadn't taken it so our green credentials are unaffected. The block will be shaped over the next few days using similar methods to surfboard builders and will help with aerodynamics at the rear of the vehicle.
