8th Semester Project Going to the Show! For the 2000 NAIAS, the students had to work with a Z3 roadster and called it the "Ohm". It was probably a fierce battle to get into that class What do we do with a Tracker??? Not too much of a battle to get into the class. Well, as most of you can see by now, there is a lot of work to be done, and off we went! |

The X Games Tracker Projector beams and then some... Brush guard including a winch Special Michelin tires on 17" Ronal Rims Special PPG copper orange paint The engine was not modified except for a huge HKS exhaust pipe! |

Indeed, the interior could use a make over, and it got it all right! The special tire pattern (handcut by Michelin), was the theme chosen for the interior: the pattern was a stylized repeating landscape that went from city to sky to land and sea, echoing the off road origins of the Tracker Referring to the X Games earlier, the entire ideation process revolved around what kind of extreme activities people in my age bracket would do: bungee, rock climbing, hiking, going to work... |

Mini Me??? And a "mini me" of a Tracker left its "tracks" and rolled inside the cabin. And that's where the name came from, surprise, surprise. The passenger area was the one chosen to be highlighted. But if you look closely, the pattern can also be seen in the driver's seat. In retrospect, a white and thicker stiching would have highlighted this area better. |
