Vroom vroom...

The engine modifications was finally done and mounted to the car for a test run. Hopes were high as this will be another huge leap forward for the team. After a few tries, the engine could not start.

However, we suffered some minor issue with the electrical circuit whereby the contact point component needs to be insulated from the engine casing. After some series of troubleshooting, we found the problem and solutions were abundant. We decided that fibreglass would be the best solution and hopefully it will perform like what we anticipated.
