(from Joe Harmon at
Joe Harmon
Design) We aren't really all about mission statements around
here; too often, they are phoney and superfluous. That said, here is
ours. We are building a high-performance, mid-engined supercar from
wood composites as a graduate project at North Carolina State
University. Wood will be used whereever possible, including the
chassis, body, and large percentages of the suspension components
and wheels. The car has a target weight of 2500lbs and a power goal
of over 600 horsepower. We aren't trying to sell anything; we aren't
trying to save the world, and we aren't advocating that everyone
should drive a wooden car. This project is a scholastic endeavour in
which are simply trying to explore materials, learn, teach, share
ideas, and stimulate creativity. This section details who we are and
what we are doing. We hope you enjoy checking out what we are
working on.
