Summary During the initial stages of this project, the thought of designing after such an abstract concept like the rocket car era was both exciting and intimidating. It gave way to a very outlandish line of ideas that became quite interesting. Think about it; rocket cars. As the design progressed into sketching several forms began to stand out; one being a subtle, but striking form similar to a cut off bullet shell. What was fantastic about this form was the fact that it had a piercing energy that retained the strong value of elegence.
