W hat is the name of your TEAM?
TEAM ARIôN RACING

H ow many members did your TEAM consist of?
We were a crew of twenty five enthusiastic and passionate
mechanical engineers.

A nd those departments were?
The departments were chassis, steering, braking, manage-
ment and engine. Each department consisted of 5 members
having one among them as head for their department and as
a captain of the team I monitored each department.
H ow did you approach the project financially?
As it was the first huge project from our dept, we had to in-
vest on the project. We invested Rs1.64 lakhs in this project
by collecting a minimum of Rs5000 from each member of
our team.

H ow much time did it take to complete the task?
It took us three months on the whole to complete the kart,
ready for race. The first two of which required whopping
amount of time to research, analyse and to think up an ef-
fective design, which was followed by the manufacturing of
chassis, assembling of the parts and fabrication.
Two weeks prior to the race, testing was done successfully
and required modification were made.
