I’ve been attending and racing at, land speed events for nearly 15 years now which is kind of weird and hard to believe. It’s amazing racing, and a whole other kind of experience compared to drag racing, road racing, circle track racing, etc. But there are still a bunch of similarities in all kinds of racing with regards to speed parts, chassis components, etc. How you put them together and make them work together is a different ball game in some ways though, as frontal area and aerodynamics are so critical on a vehicle like this streamliner. With that said, you still have to fit a driver in it that can actually drive while in it. Makes sense right?
In this video here you are going to see just how a chassis goes together for a streamliner as FastMatt takes us through his design process. It’s cool and fun to watch as he uses some cool technology, designs in CAD, and then sends the tubing off to get cut and bent. This part of the process is going to surprise you so check it out. Seriously, we want to build a chassis this way.
Check it out and tell us what you think!
