2008 Winners

 

The F1 Challenge is open to middle and high school level students worldwide. F1 team members learn and work in CAD, CAM, and CNC programs as they perform various activities at each phase of a five-step process to design, analyze, make, test and race a 1/20th scale F1 car. USA teams may face an elimination event at the state level, in order to qualify for participation in the national challenge, which takes place each year at TSA's national conference.

In 2009, the national TSA conference will take place in Denver, Colorado from June 28–July 2nd. Following the national competition, the winning team has the opportunity to compete in the F1 in Schools World Championship, in which as many as 20 countries may be represented.

Participation in the USA F1 Challenge involves an annual team fee of $150. This fee covers team registration and all items in the F1 Challenge Kit (F1 rules book, two car kits, free software options, etc.). If you have students who would like to work together as a F1 team, complete the F1 Challenge Agreement Form and fax or mail it along with the payment to TSA.

At the national TSA office, contact Hillary Lee at 703/860.9000, ext. 16 or hlee@tsaweb.org
