Children's supercar design
competition
PETROLHEADS under the age of 16 are
invited to get their creative juices flowing and design a low carbon supercar at
this year's 'Cholmondeley Power and Speed'
event.

2016,
where they will be displayed in the supercar paddock.
The submissions from aspiring young car designers will be judged by
Editor in Chief of Autocar, Steve Cropley, on Sunday afternoon, with the winner
receiving a year's subscription to the weekly magazine. Event Director, James
Hall, said:- "Supercars have captured the
imagination of children and adults alike for decades and we feel this
competition will encourage children to think differently about cars and
engineering. We can't wait to see the designs that the young petrolheads come up
with." 'Cholmondeley Power and Speed'

and Future' which will include stunning displays and thrilling on track action.
