IMD Concept - Nuthin But Mech 4
I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to get my work in alongside some mega talent for the last edition of Nuthin But Mech ( book 4 ).
A truly humbling experience as it was this series of books that inspired me so much in the past.
This is a collection of the work, alongside many extra things as I wanted to discover and push some more ideas after the finals were shipped off. ( and i'm never really happy with anything I do. )
The high level idea is a racing car ( old school LMP1 inspired ) , add some sci-fi twist to it like i usually do. Then experiment with a drive system that not only sits at each corner of the car, but is theoretically floating, as drive is delivered through magnetic fields to each specific rim, these fields in turn never allow the rim to touch the actual hub, resulting in friction-less drive. less wasted energy, much like the Maglev bullet trains of Japan.

2053 - New discoveries in controlling magnetic power push race engineers to harness this power , and drive for the ultimate goal of frictionless drive.
During pre-production, every effort was made to maintain balance, a unique rear suspension opened up opportunities for engineers to embrace mass exit flow through the center of the chassis.
Charge to each independent motor is delivered via separate guns, external hub casing doesn't always need removal for this process to take place.
Central hub never moves, drive is delivered to a removable rim with tire attached, once power is delivered, the rim 'floats' within its own magnetic field, resulting in frictionless drive being delivered.
Car diagnostics bed, integrated rolling road , jacks etc...
External Heatsyncs in direct exit airflow to manage any heat management.
Rear drive internals
Full systems Check.
Charging up / Rear jack integrated into diagnostics platform.
Construction ring design allowed the development of the chassis within smaller secluded premises.
ECU housing found on the inner radius of each hub.
