Well, it was started by a former member of our team ( now its kind of a project wev'e taken on to improve it and make it awesome), out of scrap 80-20 and aluminum channel, and sports an impressive 3 horse, ?liter, 1 cylinder engine.
It also has all the comforts and none of the safety of an old crappy Ford Festiva seat we threw on it. No seat belts, no reverse, but it does have our 2004 brain on it. We used it to control our pnuematics and gas , as well as our currently buggy steering. It looks like a piece of garbage with an engine thrown on, but we have some big, semi-dangerous plans for this little baby. We intend to put some sonar on it, and let it navigate our school grounds, without killing anyone in the process hopefully.
