The Road to Silverstone!
With Nationals rapidly approaching, we realised we needed to make a lot of changes between January and March. One of the first modifications we made was to our car, as well as the design of a new LERS (Launch Energy Recovery System). This is something we conducted a lot more research on, as we wanted to make sure that we had the best design we could to make our car as fast as possible; we're very pleased with the outcome.
Something else we did was completely change the design of our presentation, as we recently had a meeting with a previous F1 team, Red Dragons Racing, now part of the NAC Group. They went to nationals in 2014 and so we thought they were in a very good position to give us some advice, as well as tips on how to do the best we can at Nationals.
Since regionals, we have made some very good progress and are currently where we want to be in terms of time management. We have updated our portfolios and PowerPoint, as well as our car design, manufactured and assembled our car and now on our way to learn all the relevant knowledge to prepare for judging. This is the most prepared we've ever been as normally time management is quite an issue for us!!
We look forward to nationals next week at Silverstone on the 29th March (one of our team members, Emma's, Birthday!)
Good luck to everyone competing and BRING ON SILVERSTONE!!!!!!!!!
