If anyone is interested, my Son (Joe Yule) has entered the above competition which is running live on their Facebook Page.

www.facebook.com/groups/fieldhousechallenges/permalink/1029511277571014

His drag racer did 8.99 secs (14th so far) I 3D printed his car to his design.

You have to build a drag race powered by 1 AA battery.

1 just did a 2 sec run!

Bruce.

Same printer as me Brucey not sure what John has? Anyone else? What software do you use to design parts?

Mines an Anet A8, the one that you receive in boxes and build it yourself. I’m slowly getting my head around ‘how to use it’ now. Printing stuff off Thingivevse and actually using Tinkercad and designing my own very simple prints.

Span 350mm 100g max. What weight will it take? I'm using CURA but my mate swears by Prusa but he is also writing is own code!
