The team at Chevrolet Daytona Experience at the Daytona International Speedway gave us an incredible welcome this past weekend by hosting us in their delivery center next to winner’s circle! They also arranged for the Chevrolet Racing Team to come talk with Scouts on Saturday when we brought the Andretti FASTTRACK Experience LIVE event powered by STEMWERX to the Students participating in Scout Days. Check out this interview!
Andretti FASTTRACK Experience LIVE Events
Very privileged to be a part of bringing physics with a motor sports theme with Andretti Fasttrack powered by STEMWERX at Verrado High School in Phoenix, Arizona.
Wind Tunnel Testing at ROBOTICON
Students in Kindergarten through 12th grade competed @ROBOTICONtampa and visited the wind tunnel booth hosted by STEMWERX and Andretti FAST TRACK. Students learned the physics concepts of front end splitters and rear wing assemblies. Then analyzed the data by comparing the drag, downforce and aerodynamic efficiency between a Nascar, Indy race car and sports car. Learning physics and aerodynamics by examining downforce and drag in auto racing is a fun way to be introduced to force diagrams and data analysis.
