Taking my 3yo nephew to Snetterton this weekend for a 750 event - I'm more excited than he is!

Increadible, I would love to race with the formula 750! Seems like so much fun, really wish something liket that was where I live.

If you want to be a design engineer: do BTEC, not A-levels. Then focus on getting an engineering degree. Then you need an engineering job where you can use your degree but which allows you to focus on this - designing, building and racing a 750 Formula car - as a hobby - for the next ten years. Take time to document the design, build and development of the car to use in your future CV. Then focus on your design engineering career.

do BTEC? rlly, planning on doing engineering but doing a levels atm

@@thomasberry8873 Well if you're doing them then the choice is made and it's not a disaster. Just over 60 years ago(!) I left school with O-levels and started on something roughly equivalent to BTEC. After three years I joined a degree course on the second year - so never lost any time. The point is, while the A-level entrants had enjoyed long scholastic holidays, I and my fellow apprentices got two weeks holiday a year and were soaking up engineering all the rest of the time. Wherever subsequent university lectures touched on practicality we were well ahead of the A-level entrants. Later on, as a senior engineer, it was painfully obvious that A-level then degree recruits needed a lot of mentoring to come to terms with industry - and some never really did - whereas those who'd fought their way to a degree while doing some sort of a job could get right on it and surged ahead. So don't waste your holidays! Learn to weld, design/build/fly a model aeroplane. Do something related to engineering and start building a CV now.
