The UK’s Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) is to add a Low Carbon class to its Formula Student collegiate racecar design competition starting in 2008.
The Low Carbon competition will be officially launched at the UK’s Silverstone race circuit on October 22 and Flybrid Systems, the Silverstone based developers of hybrid technology including Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems for Formula One cars, is set to be named as the main sponsor of the new category.
John Wood, Formula Student chairman, said, ''The event is an innovative, cutting-edge competition, and alternative fuels are on everyone's agenda.
"It also ties in with the IMechE's key themes, Education, Environment, Transport and Energy, so it makes enormous sense for us to be a leader in this area.''
