The competition
Not just
a race.
Race Pakistan is a national STEM competition run by NUVEX (Pvt) Ltd. Teams of 14 to 19 year olds design a CO2-powered model car in CAD, machine it on a CNC, find sponsors, run a budget, and defend their work in front of industry judges before racing it on a 20-metre track.

First smoke tunnel run
The v3 body went into the smoke tunnel. A lower nose cut the flow separation over the front wing almost completely.

Last year Race Pakistan drew 36 teams from 20 schools and over a thousand visitors. Help us get a fast, well-engineered car onto that track.
