NASCAR CoT Chassis - Advanced Vehicle ResearchIt's not a pretty design, primarily because of NASCAR rules restrictions, but was a good use of SolidWorks for concept development and tube fitting details. All components were manufactured using 6-axis laser cutting. Chassis tube-fitting fabrication time was reduced and build accuracy increased.
