About Full Metal Challenge
Twenty-seven teams from five continents compete in a unique and fearsome battle for automotive supremacy. Of these, nine are British, nine are North American and nine are international teams. The international teams are from China, Russia, India, Germany, Chile, Australia, New Zealand, Iceland and South Africa.
Given a budget of £2000 ($3000), teams have been given one month to build their ultimate dream machine. A set of guidelines should form a basis for their vehicle design; over and above this, their creativity is limitless. These monstrous machines have to be capable of incredible feats of endurance and speed. They must out-smart and out-manoeuvre the competition — all of whom are hungry for victory.
The impressive location for Full Metal Challenge is a disused power station in Kent. The power station has been completely transformed to house a series of hair-raising circuits, designed to push man (or woman) and machine to the limit.
