We built, We raced, We lost

 

It took a lot of hard work to get the kart ready in time for the PPPRS event at Maker Faire NYC 2012.  But we made it!

Needless to say, we learned a lot.  Mainly to get started a little earlier — and not wait until 2am the night before to get the kart moving.

Burnt Mosfets, burnt motors and broken wheels later we made it back home to ponder the next one.  Here’s a video showing some of the races, we had fun.
