Product Information

Students start your engines. The foremost 3-D design system company, SolidWorks, has teamed with Ten80 Education and Science Kit to bring real life physical science engineering into the classroom in the form of fast and furious automobiles. With these comprehensive kits, students hone problem solving skills as they design, build, test, and race a 1/10^th scale car with nearly as many variables as an actual vehicle. Analyzing gear ratios, spring tension, and wheel set up with caster and chamber, students are offered the rare opportunity to apply skills from geometry, technology, and physical science. A truly memorable learning experience is furthered even more by the motivation of a national competition. Following optimization of their cars, students can enter the National Math2Go SolidWorks competition to see if their cars outperform the rest. Your entire class will enjoy these activities with applications for TI calculators and Vernier probes. Size of car: 30.5cm x 12.7cm W.

Two Car Kit
