Assorted Updates

The team has been extremely active this winter semester. All of our winter events have been a huge success as always, amassing interested crowds every time. Here's a break down of what we've been busy with:

Engineering Month at the Mall, March 1
Promoted engineering to the public alongside several other Guelph Engineering groups at the Stone Road Mall. We brought our racing simulator in one of our old chassis for people to try out while we offered insight and facts about formula racing and the design and construction process that goes into building open-wheel formula race cars.

College Royale, March 21 & 22
Displayed our racing simulator at the Guelph Engineering building and taught kids and potential Guelph undergrads about engineering disciplines and, of course, race cars.

Present, March 30
As of now, the chassis is complete and we are wrapping up our cost report, and will begin construction on body work soon. The templates have already been mapped out.
