This document provides information about the components and rules for an RC car racing competition called Wreckage. It describes the key parts of an RC car that must be designed, such as the chassis, nitro engine with fuel mixture below 20% nitro methane, glow plug and igniter for starting, servo motors for steering, radio control components, and suspension. It outlines the qualifying and racing rounds, including two practice laps, a qualifying round on the day, and a final one-on-one battle round. Teams must submit design reports and can have 2-5 members. Judging is based solely on race track performance.

1. WRECKAGE

2. • WRECKAGE- an extreme racing event with
high powered Radio Controlled
cars maneuvering their way through
obstacles at mind boggling speeds on the
well-designed terrain.

3. CHASSIS

4. • a frame upon which the main
parts of an automobile are
built.
•It is mandatory to design and
manufacture the Chassis on
own for wreckage

5. NITRO ENGINE

6. •A nitro engine generally refers to
an engine powered with a fuel that
contains some portion (usually between
10% and 40%) of nitro methane mixed
with methanol. Nitro methane is highly
combustible substance that is generally
only used in very specifically designed
engines.
•The percentage of nitro methane should
not exceed 20% by volume in the fuel
for wreckage.

7. GLOW PLUG & IGNITER

8. •Glow starters are used to heat up
the glow plug in your engine when
starting your nitro powered RC car. A
hot glow plug will enable the fuel to
ignite when the engine is starting. An
engine will not start without a hot glow
plug. Once the engine is running the
glow starter can be removed from the
engine.

9. SERVO MOTORS

10. STEERING

11. •RC Servos are used to convert
electrical signal into polar or
linear movement. A simple
example is the steering system of
an RC car. When signal is
transmitted from the control to
the car, this signal is decoded and
sent to a servo. According to this
signal, the servo will rotate it's
drive shaft for some degrees, and
this rotation is translated into
wheel steering.

12. RADIO CONTROLERS

13. •Transmitter - You hold the transmitter
in your hands to control the car. It
sends Radio waves to the receiver.
•Receiver - An antenna and circuit board
inside the car receives signals from the
transmitter and activates motors inside
the car as commanded by the
transmitter.
•Motor(s) - Motors can turn steer the
vehicle, used for throttling etc.

14. SUSPENSION

15. •suspension is the system of linkages
and springs or shocks that allows
the wheels to move up & down
independent of the chassis or body.
This is important for "soaking up"
bumps in rough terrain, gracefully
landing jumps, and getting the right
amount of body lean & weight transfer
in turns.

16. WHEELS

17. TOTAL
ASSEMBLY

18. EACH TEAM SHOULD SUBMIT THEIR
DESIGN REPORTS.
1 ROUND:
There will be a qualifying session with
each team getting two successive laps
out of which the faster lap will be
considered
2 ROUND:
It will be decided on the day of racing.
3 ROUND:
The final stage is a one-on-one battle .

19. •A team may consist of at least 2
members and should not exceed
more than 5 members.
•Judging is purely based on the race
track performance
