What a fantastic first day for all the kiwis at the World Champs. You can be sure the world is watching New Zealand teams! As for our own, Terrific Terrydacty, what an incredible day she has had. We are so proud of her, 3 wins, no losses, top of the Engineering division and even able to fix her own intake problems! You go girl and show them what your made of! The autonomous seems to be working well, the robot reliable and the drver dedicated. What a combination. 

As for the other kiwis, Jack (Lynfield College, 2915A) is leading the Math division, unbeaten  and is ranked 7th in the Driver Skills challenge. Max (aMax, 720P) is 4th in the Science division, also unbeaten. Oatumoetai, Onehunga, Pinehurst and Kristin have had a mixed start but we wish them all the very best in the next two days.
