The F1 LM is regarded to be the fastest incarnation of the McLaren F1 roadcars through the gears and in overall track performance. It has a 0-60 mph (97 km/h) time of 2.9 seconds, 0-100 mph (161 km/h) in 5.9 seconds and was once the holder of many world records 2 including the 0-100-0 mph record which it completed in 8.5 seconds.
F1 in Schools is a not-for-profit organization solely supported by sponsors and partners. Launched in Britain in 2000, F1 in Schools now covers the world. In November 2005, it received the backing of the Formula One group, which granted a worldwide-protected trademark and logo. F1 in Schools is acknowledged as highlighting some of the finest design and engineering minds of the teen generation, including potential future Formula One design stars.
Every standard F1 has a modem which allows customer care to remotely fetch information from the ECU of the car in order to help aid in the event of a failure of the vehicle. [2]
NIST-F1 Cesium Fountain (Block Diagram) NIST-F1 is referred to as a fountain clock because it uses a fountain-like movement of atoms to measure frequency and time interval. First, a gas of cesium atoms is introduced into the clock's vacuum chamber. Six infrared laser beams then are directed at right angles to each other at the center of the chamber. The lasers gently push the cesium atoms together into a ball. In the process of creating this ball, the lasers slow down the movement of the atoms and cool them to temperatures near absolute zero.

Prior to competing at the national F1 in Schools Technology Challenge, many states hold elimination events. At these regional events, the young design teams are judged on car speed, as well as on supporting evidence of their design, a verbal presentation and production of a marketing display stand. Judges look at safety, aerodynamics, engineering, aesthetics, quality and manufacturing, race time and presentation. Educators involved are excited to see students learning about physics, design, marketing, teamwork and financial strategy in such an imaginative yet practical way.
