Gather round and buckle up as we race into the science behind How to Build a Racing Car. In this 60minute long, family-friendly, interactive stage show together we’ll delve into the processes and people it takes to build these feats of engineering. Throughout the show, you- the audience- will have the power to choose how this car is made. Fuelled with fascinating demonstrations, we’ll look under the bonnet of cars; studying their shapes, monitoring their materials and examining their engines, making our perfect car (and an awful lot of mess) along the way.
