Race Car Design

Race Car Design is actually one step ahead for those students who are having basic knowledge of an Automobile and having desire for next level training over Race machines. With this program participants will get aware of several secret facts & figures regarding engineering of Race vehicle which are very rare and generally students can’t manage to learn. Mentors will have technically wide knowledge with Race Circuit experience to make this program really successful for participants.

Prerequisites:-

Can access computer system and make use of internet to perform search over Google.

 

Need to Prepare?

Basic knowledge of mechanical system and automobile engineering would be appreciated.
