Goodwood 2023
On Sunday the 30th of April, Blenheim entered the Greenpower Challenge at Goodwood Motor Circuit. The challenge is to drive as
far as possible in ninety minutes driving self-built cars powered by two 12-volt batteries. We entered two teams,
which placed 35th and 55th in a competitive field of 60 teams.
Dunsfold 2022
At 6.30am 11 excited students met Mr Adams and Mr Wilkinson at school to load the F24 cars into a van and travel one
hour in the minibus to Dunsfold Park. This was trickier than expected because the wheels needed to be removed and cars turned sideways
to fit them in the van!
Prior to the practise laps and races the cars must undergo scrutineering to ensure
they comply with safety and design modification requirements. Unfortunately
KT19 MK.2 had a faulty break light which required fixing and both cars battery clamps were missing. Fortunately
with quick thinking and improvisation from parent, Mr Kirby-Rose, two clamps were attached meaning we could
race.
