Left foot, right foot
The boys from Bridgewater get cracking, dismantling the Chevy and extracting its huge V8 engine. But each of the components weighs a ton and the whole team works together to manoeuvre them slowly into position. The team have to make a dual-controlled vehicle to accommodate the dual-nationality components. The clutch and accelerator are on the left-hand side, but the steering and brakes are on the right. Good teamwork driving is essential for this design to work.
