Ford Throws 3D Printed Racing Parts into the Deep End at the 24 Hours of Daytona Race

http://3dprint.com/69233/ford-24-hours-of-daytona/

The Ford EcoBoost engine that powered this car featured a 3D printed intake setup which led drivers Scott Dixon, Kyle Larson, Jamie McMurray and Tony Kanaan to victory in the brutal 24 Hours of Daytona




“3D computer printers have totally changed the development process for our Daytona Prototype race cars,” says Martinez. “3D printing has advanced at such lightning speed in recent years that, in a matter of hours, we can create real, usable parts for race cars. That’s exactly what we did for the 24 Hours of Daytona earlier this year.”
