All we want for Christmas.....is a brand new car! We've been getting festive in the Tech-suite tonight by organising the Christmas meal, Secret Santa and much more!

 (Wo)men in black... And an array of other colours on a top secret mission.

Can you guess what we are doing?

Bethan and Ellie continue their work on the battery boxes! Tonight's task is re-fitting all of the plywood and polystyrene.

 Energy drinks are evidently on the wish-list this Christmas, maybe its after all the tiring work this evening! 

 Erin with the Lucozade 

Luke, who was obviously focusing so hard on the Raspberry Pi (maybe the name) clearly felt a little peckish...as he tucks into a bag of Monster Munch whilst Katy sets the equipment up!!!

 Meanwhile, having learnt how to use OpenFoam over the last couple of weeks with CAUC, Rachel, Cerys and Immy (CAUC members also involved in the F1 in schools competition) have spent the evening using OpenFoam to test their car designs for F1 in schools! Cerys is even flexing the business cards!

Go add them on instagram @_nebula.racing_ and whilst you're over there, why not also follow our new development team @racingsigma !

Finally - we started this blog wishing for a new car - well tonight, Christmas came two weeks early. Thanks to the efforts of our (Wo)men in black, we are pleased to present to you the chassis of our new car........
