Create A Car

In the spirit of Soap Box Derby, Monsters Garage, and Trick My Ride, business teams will build a custom racing machine. Race teams will choose parts from a variety of raw materials including cardboard, PVC pipe and, of course, lots of duct tape. After teams secure materials they must design a one-person machine on paper, choose a driver, and figure out maximum propulsion techniques.

Successful car building requires total teamwork including problem solving, creativity, focused leadership, thoughtful decision making and clear assignment of team member roles and responsibilities. As the car takes shape teams are ready to test drive, detail, and make final mechanical adjustments before the big race.

The climax of this Indy style event is when teams present their “Tricked Out” cars at the starting line. Drivers then race through a series of qualifying heats. Each win gets them closer to the checkered flag that will determine which race teams will be crowned champions.
