The 5-Day Build & Drive Itinerary:

Day 1: Getting Started & The Engine Room

Welcome, tool safety, and learning how to read the building diagrams. We'll assemble the sealed gearbox, install the electric motor, and attach the rear driveline.

Day 2: Suspension & The Brains of the Car

Building rear shock absorbers, learning battery safety, and powering up the radio controller. We will install and wire up the electronics that control the speed and steering.

Day 3: Building the Front End

Assembling front steering parts, axles, and suspension arms. We will also mount the front bumper to protect the car from crashes.

Day 4: Tires, Details & Final Checks

Assembling the wheels, stretching on the front grooved tires and rear paddle tires, and making final mechanical tweaks. We'll finish up by adding the driver figure, racing stickers, and outer body shell.

Day 5: Time to Race!

We put the tools down and head out to drive! Instructors will teach the basics of using the controller, managing speed, and taking corners safely before we hold some friendly races to see everyone's hard work in action. ?
