    TDI powered 818

    Our team built a Hybrid GTM a few years ago. I have a new group of students this year and we decided to have them build a biodiesel powered 818. We plan to enter this vehicle in the Green Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in April.

    The biggest challenge obviously is fitting the motor and transmission. We are running 2001 TDI engine tuned to 180 HP and 300 ft-lbs which is mated to an Audi six-speed transmission.

    We got the motor and trans mounted this weekend. Next we have to fabricate axles. I'll post more pictures as soon as the axles are done.
