FORMULA HYBRID + ELECTRIC DAY 3

Zips Racing had great momentum going into today’s events. First, we started out with prepping our car for dynamic events. We had a small issue and some things to tweak before going out, but they were fixed quickly. We then went to Acceleration and were able to secure a second place finish with a time of 3.829 seconds. After, we took a break for lunch and to change our setup for Autocross. There we were able to secure a massive first place finish with a time of 40.308 seconds. We also had the amazing opportunity to make it to Design Finals and show off our hard work. To finish out the night, we got the team together for a competition wide pizza party.

We’re currently at the track prepping for Endurance tomorrow and can’t wait to see what the day brings. Wish us luck🏎️

Big win for Zips Racing in Autocross🦘🏎️💨
