ryan lang Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 should be good if you can get it done ;) we havea dyno, but it only gets used on open days and its only for power runs, theres no tuning on any of our course as its basic mechanics, but when i go to do the motorsport engineering i imagine it will be different Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 We don't even get to learn anything about engine design until the 3rd year here at Brookes! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 ahh never. we've done a little bit because one of our tutors is an ex rally championship team mechanics so he loves that shit but the rest are mainly ex dealership workers who became teachers theres a lad in my class who used to be one of my tutors supervisor at carcraft haha i cant wait to go to uni and do some proper tuning gigs but i imagine that wont be until the later years, i expect the 1st year to be very similar to what ive already done which is just learning how everything works properly, because you cant make something better unless you know how it works to begin with Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm lucky in a way.. We have the specialists from all areas that used to work for TVR here in Blackpool.. My personal tutor was part of the team that designed the engine did the TVR Speed 12. The guy that runs the dyno cell was an aerodynamics expert at TVR and so on. Basically all the guys that run my car are crazy as fuck. Just like the TVR's they used to build.The old TVR factory is less than 5 mind from my house.. Gutted the day that shut down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
