Reality Is Setting In

As a team we are working at a rapid pace to figure out the design of the car. Also, this is making us realize that we are approaching a stretch of time where we need to accomplish things. A huge thing that we need to get done is purchase metal, and start frame work on the car. There are only 5 months that we have to work. It seems like a long time but it is very short. Constructing the car cannot be rushed in anyway. We have to carefully, and skillfully construct the car. We only have 45 minutes everyday to put work into the car so things get looked over, and skipped. The team will hopefully get out to the local businesses to get some sponsorship from local businesses. Still the main focus has been on the full scale drawing that we have been working on. We will remember not to weld with the paper under the car this year. To say the least, our blue print from last year was gone. Its all just a learning experience, and a whole lot of team work.

The Ball Is Rolling

The team has started off this month by making a full scale drawing of the car. We have split up into two groups, and we will talk about the pros and cons of each design. We may choose one design completely or mix the ideas together. We do not have metal in our possession so in that aspect you could speculate that we are falling behind. Everyone knows that we need to start buying, and constructing the car. We do not want to fall victim to the same thing that happened last year. We are aware but we are trying to construct the best possible car. The ideas that have been designed have many good things about each. Now it is time to make this car. We have a couple of months and then the races will start. Our team is going to come out strong, and bring the competition this year. We have a good team with their sights set on winning.
