Day 1 of Racing

The first day of racing went great. In the morning we finished scrutineering with the endurance test, and began racing by 2:30. We averaged a speed around 16 mph with our driver, Nick Chapman, to allow for us to receive a baseline of power usage data for the race. We also wanted to make sure enough energy was available in case of cloud coverage that is expected tomorrow, and later in the week. Unofficially, we finished in 5th place for the day in the classic division with 33 completed laps. We'll have to wait till tomorrow until the official results from the judges are released. Can't wait to begin racing tomorrow!!
