Put your teams on pole position as they compete to build their own miniature cars ready for the ultimate drag race

Introducing Team Torque…

A packed crowd buzzes with excitement, all eagerly awaiting the first race! Entrants for the first heat – a nominated driver and mechanic from each team – appear and race cars are held aloft for the eager crowd to catch a glimpse of their competitors. Mechanics pump air into their miniature rocket cars, forcing them off the starting grid. The straighter and truer their course, the further and faster the cars will travel.

Team Torque is a truly exhilarating event, bursting with energy and creativity. Not only must your teams compete in the 'Team Torque Grand Prix' but they must also strive to win the parts needed to build their model cars. Right from the start, teamwork is vital and the contributions of each and every team member will be critical to winning that final race.

Depending upon your requirements, Team Torque can be tailored so that:

  • It is held as one event.
  • The Grand Prix is staged during dinner.
  • It is completed in stages during breakout periods throughout the day.
  • It is customised to your specific event.

So start your engines… rev up… and get your teams ready to race!

What will happen during Team Torque?

  • To begin, your teams will each be provided with the basic chassis of a model racing car, together with wheels and axles.
  • Each team will then be issued with a Challenge Menu, from which they must hand in vouchers to receive the equipment they will need to complete each challenge.
  • ‘Pit Stop Marshalls’ will then judge your teams’ attempts at their chosen challenges and award points based on their standard of achievement.
  • Each team must use these points to ‘buy’ the parts that will enable them to design and build their miniature F1 car. They should also acquire the uniforms they will need to look the part in their final challenge.
  • Teamwork will now go into overdrive, as each team produces their car: adapting and fine-tuning the bodywork and mechanics, creatively designing their branding and making the team flag.
  • Production time over, drivers must now point their cars down the track, whilst their mechanics pump air into their rocket cars from state-of-the-art, high-pressure pumps.
  • Once a certain pressure has been reached, the plastic seal that holds the air will explode, propelling each car off the starting grid and down the track.
  • Depending upon your requirements, the winner can be determined either by the car that travels the furthest or by the car that is first to cross the finishing line.

Testimonial

    I don't want to give away too much but let's just say that the activities are innovative engaging and a lot of fun. Catalyst invests a lot and really goes all out in their events - it's what makes them unique. The idea that good teamwork equals success is not a new one, but Catalyst create an environment in which this theoretical knowledge becomes reality in a very short period of time.
