This year's fairing is a complete redesign - I can't give away all the awesome specs and how they compare to last year's - but when you put them side by side, the differences are significant That said, I'm happy you liked our work

That arm powered vehicle really needed someone with a big buff upper body - something not so common among engineers :/ It was well build though

Will you be at the next event April 25?
