It's just finished in NSW but other states check it out . The teams had to make machines to "curl" mini bodies on a skating rink ... Curling is when they slide a large granite weight on ice and the closest to a target wins , these guy's had to build machines to propel the mini's ....

For those interested , the clubman shell went a smidgen further than the roundie but they did up the revs of the morris minor engine that powered the pusher . OK , you'll need to see it to understand .
