The ultimate and spectacular ‘Mega Challenge’ is to build a multi-purpose, hybrid Mega Machine; part off-roader, part hill-climber, part amphibious vehicle. It must be rugged and adaptable enough to transport our team members and their on-road experts on a marathon 26-mile race across Death Valley, California. The first complete team past the finish line with the vehicle, in however many pieces, will be the winner. The three rival teams have been plucked from the world’s engineering elite, representing the three super-power nations of the United States, the United Kingdom and Russia, and include military professionals from the Army, Navy and Air Force. Mega Challenge is their chance to show they are as ingenious as our amateur bodgers and prove beyond doubt which nation is the true Scrap Superpower.go to top |
