Today the team arrived at Hidden Valley racetrack in Darwin, where we spent the day. It was really exciting to meet teams from all around the world, check out their cars and here about their journeys to Australia. We met teams from Holland, Malaysia, Japan, Turkey, Singapore, Canada, France and the US and are looking forward to meeting many more in the next couple of days (we’re still waiting to meet the German team who will be our next door neighbours in pitt lane).
IVy spent the day racing around the track and when we got back to Glen’s house this evening we saw footage of her driving on the ABC. IVy will be undergoing rigourous static and dynamic scrutineering over the next few days, today the track was full of stories from teams who had been sent back to fix or change things. The team is confident that IVy will meet the excellent standards of the World Solar Challenge and is looking forward to showing off our design.
