Success with the electric car.

The kids got the car wrapped with printed vinyl the day before the race. I loaded it on the truck along with the batteries and tools. Friday morning I got more stuff to carry and headed off to Lime Rock race track. The bus with the kids got there 30 minutes later and we got the inspection process going. The amount of cars overwhelmed the crew and things got off to a late start. I was hoping we could get into the second race but had to settle for the third race. That started at 2:00pm and ended at 3pm. The drivers managed to get in 22 laps each and we didn't have much faith in the results. but with rush hour very near we decided to stay for the awards. We got second place in our class and everyone was quite happy. I think we were in the top ten overall. Not bad for a new car and greener than green drivers.
