Last year when i took that course...(i'm a freshman now)...we used CAD to design a body. They we shaped it with a big chunk of styrofoam. We used a rod that heat up and sliced through the chunk. Then we put it in a wind tunnel to see if it was areodynamic. Then I got the chunk of wood, turned on the bansaw, and started cuttin out the body. THen we used a drillpress for the hole in the back where the c02 goes and for the holes for the axels of the wheels. Then the teacher hooked it up to this machine to race them.. OUrs won 1st place.. OH YEA
And if you like that...take mechanical drawing and machine cad in 9th grade. I take that and i love it. If you can try to get some small engine repair in the shop in the highschool if thats possible. It helps alot.
Good luck with your car!
