Silverstone – Day 5 & 6 (Dynamics)

July 19th, 2009

After two days of strange looks, some members of other teams got the guts to join our morning gymnastics session. With about 10 extra participants we had a very positive start of the first dynamics day. Today started with the acceleration and skidpad events. Our first two drivers would do both events, starting with the skidpad. Up next was the acceleration and after noon the sprint/autocross started. Considering the very fast time of Stuttgart, we knew it would be very difficult to beat them. Our first Erik had to set a decent time, not taking too much risks. This resulted in the 7th time. Our second Erik had to set an even better time. Sadly, he missed a corner and hit some cones. With a final 6th place we were a little disappointed. This disappointment was compensated by our selection into the design finals. Just after the panoramic picture, our chiefs went to the design finals and as we know, did a very good job. Today is the last day of the event where the Endurance race was driven. We finished the race in a good time, so it seems we did well here. We still have to wait for the final overall result which will be announced tonight.

We placed a few of our pictures at the website as well, they can be found here: FSUK 2009 photos
