Almost 200 students from across Utah come together for the 2010 competition, which involves design and actual racing:
The competition is designed to test students’ ability to conceptualize a model car design; produce a virtual 3D model using constraint-based modeling software; configure each design to accommodate standard parts, meet size, weight and track dimension specifications; manufacture a car using the Dimension 3D Printer and then race it against others. Points are awarded for marketing illustrations, detail drawings, appearance, features and speed. Winners are awarded prizes based on performance.

Oh, you’re wondering what prize was awarded to the winners? Trophies, of course. Printed on the Dimension 3D printer!

Great post. This type of activity strengthens every participant's capability of thinking and implementation. Good job to Utah Valley University.
