Optimum Resource is proud to present the newest version of its award-winning program, Car Builder Deluxe. Sophisticated, yet easy to use, Car Builder Deluxe appeals to children ages 8 and up, teenagers and adults who are fascinated by cars.
As “design engineers,” users build cars on screen, specifying chassis length, wheelbase, engine type, transmission, fuel tank size, uspension, steering, wheels, tires and brakes. All functional choices are interrelated and will affect the car in a wind tunnel and around a test track, accumulating data about top speed, cornering ability, acceleration and braking.
A complete evaluation report is displayed and users can adjust, alter, save and print designs for comparison against future creations. It introduces users to computer-aided design (CAD), enhances problem-solving skills, and fosters an elementary knowledge of physics and automotive design.
Available Components
Car Builder contains a wide range of individual components from which you may assemble your vehicle. Remember, there is no perfect car. You should design your vehicles with various goals in mind. A designer seeking to produce a comfortable, than one whose goal is a superfast sports car with a seating capacity of two. You may use the test data readouts for comparing the cars you design. Pay particular attention to range, top speed, braking, and other technical information.
Even subtle changes in components will be reflected in the data and will effect performance. The test driver's comments may also be of use to you in determining how well your goals have been achieved.
