We scored 63.92 out of 100 points in cost. This puts us at roughly a 20 point disadvantage to many of the other stronger teams, so we need to rely heavily on our dynamic event and engineering design scores.
Garrett Huff started off autocross with two runs in the 54 second range, putting us right in the middle of the quickest teams. Michael Mosburger was able to post a 53.043 and then a 52.539, both times fast enough for first place. However, Global Formula Racing has just answered back with a 52.453 so we are currently in 2nd place for autocross. TU Delft just ran a 52.561 with their first driver. TU Munich is right behind them with a 53.095. Both our drivers have taken their runs so now we are just waiting to see how quick everybody else is. ETS is having problems with shifting, not being able to hit 3rd gear. They can only drive in 2nd and 4th gear. Stuttgart has yet to run. Autocross is far from over so we are hoping to hold on to 2nd place.
The team ran autocross early so that we have adequate time to prepare for design finals which begin at 8pm.
