All I know is even if the car was as good as the ones in formula 1, Critics will still be hating undecided

Btw that project will probably go a long way in helping them secure a job...

Words of frustrated human being!!! I Know you were deported where you went abroad to clean toilet. They are your mates bringing out something where everyone thought there is nothing but you went abroad to clean toilet, yet you were not qualified for that also, so they have to bundle you back.

I expected with your showboating here on Nairaland, you'd have taken a little out of your resources to actually sponsor students who are acclaimed the best in the University of the state where you reside but I won't be disappointed if you haven't.

@OP, That's nice, really. But let's not get ahead of ourselves here. That is not a formula 1 car, or even any sort of race car. Also, we can already manufacture or assemble vehicles in Nigeria. In fact, cars are assembled and reassembled everyday by auto mechanics without university education. Its nice that these students were able to build their own chassis tho, and possibly other parts, especially with such a tight budget. If we could get the specifications of this car so that we can know exactly what was done, that would be e
ven better. More grease to their elbows!

But there is nothing here that shows that these guys are learned, anybody can do this without going to school. Just folding and cutting sheet metals, putting seat and fairly used engine into it means nothing brother. We need to learn and move away from this rubbish, this is not the 14th century. What development means is improving the available ones, like improving the fuel efficiency of the engine, improve the accelerating time, reducing weight of the car by developing light materials with higher weight to strength ratio, etc. Which car manufacturer in the world will want to invest into this? NONE. If you try this as a lecturer/research in China, India, japan, etc, you will surely be stoned to death no doubt.
anybody can do it , how many are doing it .....which have you done in your line of expertise ? actions speaks louder than word ...if the japense were criticised for making those small adding machines am sure they would never have made the scientific . well you are only thinking lame about no one wanting to invest in them ... the truth is they stood out from their peers in a little way.

Until you build a working engine here in Nigeria, all you have built is not a car but assembling a couple of loosed parts togeda.

Oho!!! Now, you're making reference to these countries. Nigerians and hypocrisy. These same set of people will rant China made/India made and will state how it is not on par with Western nations yet when it comes to what a Nigerian has made, the technologies they so condemn automatically becomes adorable. They forget that despite the low quality work done by these people, they were encouraged which made them what/where they are presently and turned into nations where different firms outsource their various productions.
There really is an inherent problem with us. For students with that budget (#400, 000), they tried taking into consideration the negative factors that abound here in this country. But as the usual crowd mentality that we all have, we condemn, they never bothered reading the article to see that it was #.4 million yet they come here to criticise and say how they can couple sheets of metals together and voila! the car is made. Tomorrow, they'll say Nigerian students are not creative enough, they don't read anymore when they can't see a simple figure up in the above article about these young undergraduates. We should keep wallowing in our hypocrisy.

I'm sure when we hear and see what team Uniben did in South Africa recently, we'd still condemn.
been saying this , there are some class of individuals we need to get rid of for us to move ahead in nigeria , such is the class of guy you mentioned ... I wish i can eliminate them personally ... yes they should take it to court.
