CAD model
Entirely modeled in Autodesk Alias with high precision tolerance and clean surface topology. Most of the surface patches are single span and 90% are in Curvature continuity in order to achieve high-quality reflections as well as high-quality light bounces.

A unique Winter machine
No need to explain. This “Zamboni” pushes the limits of extreme winter Motorsport. The pilot-less autonomous machine, entirely self-controlled, seats on 2 ultra-lightweight fronts skis and holds a pair of rear thrusters combined with heavy duty composite caterpillars. The Zamboni also has 2 fog lights located in each side canopy.

Front view
The headlight is located in the nose, in reference to the New York Central J3a Hudson Bullet Streamline Steam train. Each body panel is mounted around a carbon fiber chassis and low profile suspensions.

Full throttle
The higher the speed, the better it works! The thin skis are designed to reduce both air drag as well as surface friction to improve efficiency & performance.
