Race Day 3 - Tuesday

Summary

We covered 681km today. No issues encountered at all, and we were cruising on average at 90km/h. We gained about an hour on MIT today and are hot on their tails for the top silicon car in the race.

Mechanical

No issues.

Electrical

No issues.

Camp

We managed to pull into the 10 minute control stop at 5:08pm at Kulgara, 2 minutes short of the 10 minutes grace given by the regulations. This meant in the morning we would begin the control stop and leave at 8:18am. We got a massive charge from the morning and this allowed us to run 2km/h higher than our previous estimate.

We had sausages with mash potato for dinner. It was awesome, and finished an overall awesome day for Sunswift.
