Central Idea

1. We need to create a small car capable of holding one person which will be pushed by another individual.

2. Manufacturing Process

   • Main Chassis
     • 1) Solid Base
       • 2) Obtain high speed with less power
         • Make the Chassis as light as posible
           • Use light but strong materials in order to make the pulling of the car easier therefore going faster
         • Using an aerodynamic shape un order to get less air ressistance
       • Make the Chassis as strong as posible so that it holds the pilot and can handle the pulling force
   • Wheels
     • 1) Good Grip
       • 2) Firmly Attached
         • 3) Adequate Size for the car
           • If you don't get the right size of wheels the car will be less stable and won't be as fast
         • The wheels need to be firmly attached so that the car does not move around therefor being more stable making it easier to drive
       • Good grip is needed in order to maintain the stability of the car and so that the car is not sliding but rolling
   • Materials
     • 1) Light weight materials
       • 2) Strong Materials
         • High quality
           • If you use low quality materials they might break even though if they are strong
         • Using strong materials allows for better stress handling from the car, being able to support the strong pulling provided by the "Motor" in which this case is a person
       • In order to go faster in your car, if you reduce the weight and if you use a certain amount of power with less weight you will pull the car with less effort
   • Seat
     • 1) Light Weight
       • 2) Comfortable
         • 3)Strong
           • The seat has to support the driver firmly so that he does not move
         • The pilot can't have an uncomfortable seat because it can distract him while driving
       • In every aspect of the car you need to reduce weight, and with something so easy as the seat, this is a must
   • Mechanism
     • The steering mechanism has to be when centered with the car itself
       • The steering system has to be soft in order to turn the car with less effort
         • The rear axle has to be wider in order to be more stable
