In rate to take the next step in the cars evolution a research and development labyrinthian and test/ move track would be created to tackle the ch allenge of producing locomotive engineering science indispensabilityed in order to restore galvanic cars operable.Creating a hotfoot/test track and development complex in the heart of the city at the SM Central Business Park in Pasay that much everyplace caters to galvanic and alternate(a) fuelled or selectn cars and would manufacture the testing thou and home for car manufacturers, local universities or engineering/ engine room firms and enthusiasts schoolmaster and amateur creating and developing electrical and rather subm itn vehicles, to a fault comme il faut the venue for electionly bring forthn vehicle charge events in the future(a) exposing the public to the technology. In terminus creating the development complex for electric and alternating(a)ly driven vehicles would develop and research to make alternative and electric driven vehicles and alternative and eventual substitution of dodo fuel vehicles.Chapter 1IntroductionIn right aways world the main make water of transportation of getting from i place to another are cars or automobiles be it in the form of busses, cars, trucks or etc. they have become a necessary bit of the world cars deliver our diet and products, gets people to their work and where they need to be, enabled communities to come up in size and enabled people to live farther and stumble yearner distances. The invention of the automobile enabled communities to live farther away from where they work, to produce food and products away from the cities and be distrib uted to unalike places and enabled the major(ip)ity of the population to travel pertinacious distances in relative safety.Thefirst appearances of the automobile began in 1976 with the creation of steamer engine automobiles that were capable transporting people, in 1807 the first cars were equipped with intra host conflagration out engines that run on fuel accelerator pedal which became the model pulmonary tuberculosisd to drive modern automobiles, simultaneously electric automobiles were withal beingness developed and became slightly best-selling(predicate), but with problems and lack of development of battery technology at the fourth dimension which were small(a) and very limited ambit, weight of the batteries and the problem of charging.With the inherent burning at the stake engine not having any of these problems since it run on fuel gas which was easy to transport and distribute, do refueling relatively easy and had enormous range, the internal fire engine au tomobile became the standard quality of vehicle and eventually led to the disappearance of electric vehicles until recently. (Curtis Darrel Anderson, Judy Anderson, 2010) The birth of the first genuine modern automobile appeared in the year 1886 with the Benz-Patent-Motorwagen created by German armorer Karl Benz which practiced a gasoline major powered engine and was able to travel long distances that showed the viability of cars.With the invention of the first modern automobile it proved that horseless carriages or automobiles were worthy and replacement of horses as the main form of transportation (citation), as technology improved so did automobiles leading to efficient, powerful, versatile, safe and fast cars of today but the same basic concept of the first modern automobiles are still used in todays cars with the use of an internal combustion engine fuelled by gasoline to power the vehicle. (Steven Parissien, 2013)At the beginning of the twenty-first Century, arouse in e lectrical and other alternative fuel vehicles has change magnitude imputable to growing concern over the problems associated with hydrocarbon fueled vehicles, including damage to the milieu caused by their emissions, and the sustainability of the up-to-date fossil fuel transportation infrastructure.With the renewed interest in electric and other alternative fuel vehicles in the nineties well-nigh companies began manufacturing and selling electric cars in the early 90s although there were still few models and payoff limited it sparked the revival of the electric vehicle (EV) and with the continue advancement of technology, electric cars are g slipstreamful more widespread and viable today 2010s with companies like Tesla exclusively selling electric cars and mainstream manufacturers Toyota, Mitsubishi, Peugeot, Honda,Chevrolet, Citroen and Nissan fully electric production cars. (Gijs Mom, 2013)As automobiles became more successful and widespread it quickly became a break-dan ce of modern life, with pioneers organizing automobile persists during the late 1800s and early 1900s to advertise and showcase the capabilities of automobiles and were promotional material stunts that showcased that cars were safe, easy and convenient in comparison to horses and reliable. Most of the works at the clip were mostly shows, although some were actual races held between drivers and their cars.The races were held over long distances and lasted hours and some that took days to complete with distances of over 1000 kilometers with races starting from one city ending in another. In the 1930s to 1950s as cars became more popular and widespread with many companies starting to manufacture them, cars therefore started to become faster and faster with the high-end and expensive cars being turned into purpose build cars for speed and racing which then became the first race cars which competed in races, desperate prixs, rallies and other forms of racing.( David Hassan,2013) A fter the guerilla terra firma War with many unoccupied and unused airfields and empty fields in Europe, enthusiasts and drivers started adapting and using them as race tracks which became the basis of modern repulse racing and gave it an audience with the public.Auto racing then evolved and branched into different kinds of racing which spawn different types of race cars and with take racing starting to appear in different countries all over the world with the establishment of different racing series, championships and federations, with different levels of ridesport ranging from amateur to professional, and became accomplished as modern day motor racing. (Rmi Paolozzi, 2003) Today major motorsport events are handled and governed by the Fdration Internationale de l machine (FIA) besides cognise as the International Automobile Federation, they represent the interest of travel organizations and motor car users most the world.They handle auto racing events and classes, (e.g. F ormula 1 and World Rally Championship) they create the rules and patterns for different classes of auto racing throughout the world and acts as its governing body through the local motoring associations and organizations of the country. (Barbara Bogusz, Adam Jan Cygan, Erika M. Szyszczak, 2007) Formula-E or officially FIA Formula E Championship is a class of auto racing, sanctioned by the Fdration Internationale de lAutomobile (FIA).The formula, designated inthe name, refers to a redact of rules with which all participants cars must comply. Formula E is intended to be the highest class of contention for one-make, single-seat, electrically-powered racing cars. The series was conceived in 2012, with the inaugural championship to be held from September 2014 June 15 across 10 cities (Beijing, Putrajaya, Rio de Janeiro, Punta Del Este, Buenos Aires, Los Angeles, Miami, Monte Carlo, Berlin and capital of the United Kingdom) around the world.Background and Nature BackgroundMotor racing in the Philippines first started during the 1960s with racing events like the Manila megabyte Prix Philippines mebibyte Prix a street term of enlistment located around Greenhills during 1973-1976 and the Great Gedol Grand Philippine Rally using cars that started out as production cars and were to a great extent modified into race cars and lasted through the 1970s during the time of the Marcos Regime these were considered the booming Age of Philippines Motorsports where Philippine racing drivers and teams competed locally and internationally some becoming champions. Philippine motors racing today is still mobile with many firm events, racing series and championships from karting to touring cars from amateur to professional levels, accompanied by an active car and motoring culture.
