How Far & Fast Can YOU
Go?
The FastTrack RC National STEM League is the 'little league' through
which future engineers, scientists, marketing and creative
professionals prepare for their futures.
FastTrack RC students form teams around 1:10 scale R/C cars that
mirror professional race teams. Why motorsports? Because it is
the only sport won or lost in real time by applying STEM.
Drivers have a chance to win because engineers get it right.
Like professionals, FastTrack RC students manage and market their
team with the ultimate goal of going further, faster through race
engineering. Teams earn points between Oct and May to reach
the National Finals at a NASCAR Sprint Cup track. 2009 was at
Lowe's Motor Speedway. 2010 will be at Daytona Motor Speedway.
Depending on your needs, the FTRC can be implemented as a summer
camp, after-school club, technology modules, supplemental physics,
STEM and math curriculum or marketing / management project.
