Sorry for our slight absence! Weebly had been blocked from our school computers. We had to figure out a way to still be able to blog and update our website. We found a way and converted our website to education.weebly. We also had our race! We did better than last year! We placed 3rd for middle school! We did 46 laps! Our speed was 18.8 mph. We think that the difference is the batteries and if we change the gear ratio, it could drain the batteries. We are thinking about saving up money and buying new batteries. We get what we get and that's about it. We had some slight problems during the race. The race was fun, but some things had occurred. I believe our terminals and connectors are acting up again. Like I said before, we did better than last year! Congratulations to Challenger Middle School for placing 1st place! You guys did awesome!
Some things we can fix for our next race is organization. Our tent was super small and very unorganized. People wouldn't sit down and it made it very hard for us to see and track down our car we were timing. The qualifying race was very hard to time because people were confused and we did not know when the person said to start. We think we did well, but we can do better. Starting off, we are fixing some problems and issues we had with the race. Some things that affected our timing of the other teams' cars was the crash between Whitesburg and Challenger. I think it was a phenomenal that they managed to still beat us after that aftermath. So, congratulations to both teams! You guys did amazing! Thank you, Greenpower USA for giving us the opportunity to race against other schools in our division. We had an amazing time and learned a lot. Greenpower is all about problem solving and the race gave us a chance to do a lot of problem solving . Thank you to the other teams who participated with us! We think everyone did great! We are so honored to win 3rd place in the middle school division. Like I said earlier, we could still do better but we still did great! With more to come, Green Grizzlies
