  • Stock Car Drivers and Hot Rod Racers Mix It up on the Bobsled Track
    omi.qxp 12/17/2008 10:36 AM Page 1 Of Material Interest Stock car drivers and hot rod racers mix it up on the bobsled track ASCAR and NHRA drivers will square off against one another in a race that has it all – speed, danger, technique, high-performance machines, and merciless punishment for mistakes – in the Geoff Bodine Bobsled Challenge. The event raises funds to advance bobsled technology, and to provide U.S. Olympic athletes with the best possible American-made equipment. Geoff Bodine, winner of the 1986 Daytona 500, started the Bo-Dyn Bobsled Project Nin 1992 to apply NASCAR technology to bobsled design. The teams had been competing with used European sleds, and had not won an Olympic medal since 1956. Since 1994 the teams have been racing sleds designed and built by NASCAR builder, Chassis Dynamics, with support from Whelen Engineering. The long medal drought was broken in 2002 when the teams brought home 3 medals – silver and bronze for the men and gold for the women. All details of sled construction are regulated by the sport’s governing body, the International Bobsleigh and Tobogganing Federation (FIBT). The sleds built for the U.S. bobsled team are constructed of a propriety hybrid fiber composite cowling with a urethane finish using traditional lay-up methods. The cowling is supported by a continuous, TIG welded steel chassis. The steering controls are aluminum; the fasteners are steel. The runners for all competition sleds are made of a steel alloy specified by the FIBT. No post-processing treatments to alter the physical, compositional, or structural characteristics of the steel are allowed, nor is coating or plating of the runners allowed.
